The Vagrants were an American rock band formed in the 1960s in Long Island, New York. They were known for their blues-based hard rock style, with notable band member Leslie West later gaining fame as part of the band Mountain. Their most influential work was arguably "I Can't Make a Friend," a single that showcased their signature blend of British-invasion influences and American garage band energy. Although they never achieved widespread success, The Vagrants were significant in the context of the 1960s East Coast rock scene and served as a launching pad for West's successful career.
