This band has no relation to the band of the same name that later evolved into the Outsiders (see "Pebbles, Volume 9"). Question Mark & the Mysterians is one of the many Latino garage rock bands and is well known for their major hit with "96 Tears". The Human Beinz also had a Top 40 hit with "Nobody but Me". The Lollipop Shoppe was originally known as the Weeds, which is represented among the bonus tracks on the "Pebbles, Volume 1" CD.
