The Pleazers made some subtle changes to ‘Last Night’ which was originally a small UK hit for The Merseybeats six months earlier. The title and lyrics for the B-side ‘In The Pines (Black Girl)’ had to be changed because of possible racial repercussions, so on the spur of the moment it became ‘Poor Girl’. Over the next two weeks they rehearsed and recorded their next single ‘That Lonely Feeling’, and started work on their album. Trouble on the telly. The AKTV2 switchboard lit up like a Christmas tree as hordes of irate viewers rang up, mainly to complain about the debauchery they had been forced to witness.

Their initial single, "Last Night", did poorly; while its follow-up, a cover version of Them's "Gloria" (February 1965), broke into the national singles chart. The Pleazers released their debut studio album, Definitely Pleazers, in 1966 on the Zodiac label, which was produced by John Hawkins. They returned to Australia later that year with Gus Fenwick (ex-Layabouts) replacing Peel on bass guitar. The group disbanded in 1967. Raven Records issued a compilation album, A Midnight Rave with the Pleazers, in 1987.

Their first single, "Last Night"/"Poor Girl", got minor response. It wasn't until they released their follow-up song, a cover of Them's "Gloria", with "That Lonely Feeling" on the reverse, in February 1965, that saw them get any action on the charts. Seven singles, one EP called "Midnight Rave", and one album called "Definitely Pleazers" were released on the Zodiac label. In 2003 EMI released a similar CD, called the Pleazers, minus a few album tracks, but did include "Sand and Sea" and a copy of "Nazz Are Blue" from their 1992 Galaxie Re-Union.

New Zealand band The Pleazers performed a version of the song, which is on the multiple-artist album Kiwi Classics, Vol 2. U2 snippeted this song at the ending of "Exit" during practically all its live performances, including the one on their album–movie Rattle and Hum released in 1988. They also recorded an unrelated song called "Gloria"  . Tom Petty played the song several times on his Highway Companion Tour in 2006, and he closed most of the shows with it during his twenty-night run at The Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco in 1997. The Tragically Hip performed a live version of the song, which included a monologue by Gordon Downie about tyinghis friend, Roch, to the railroad tracks.
