ATOMIC ROOSTER
A few words for a big band.
Atomic Rooster were an English progressive rock band, formed by ex-Crazy World of Arthur Brown members. Throughout its history, keyboardist Vincent Crane was the only constant member, and wrote the majority of their material. Their history is defined by two periods, in the early 1970s and the early 1980s.
In summer 1969, The Crazy World of Arthur Brown had to cease touring in the middle of their second U.S tour due to keyboardist Vincent Crane's mental illness.
When he recovered, he and drummer Carl Palmer took the step to leave Arthur Brown and return to England, the return date being Friday 13th, 1969, being the year of the Rooster in the Chinese calendar. After influence from a member of U.S. band Rhinocerous, Crane and Palmer donned the name Atomic Rooster, and not long after they recruited Nick Graham to bass and vocals. They followed with the Crazy World Of Arthur Brown-formula of vocals, organ, bass, and drums.
During many line up changes,the member of Atomic Rooster played with many groups like : Crazy World of Arthur Brown,Andromeda,Emerson, Lake & Palmer,Hard Stuff,Cactus,Colosseum,Dexys Midnight Runners and Ginger Baker.
