CREEPY JOHN THOMAS

 CREEPY JOHN, ANDY "SHOTGUN" MARX, HELMUT POHL, plus PAUL ROGERS & CONRAD PLANK

A little known and underrated talent. John Thomas had two hits with The Flies in Australia before coming to London to form his own band in 1969. Both albums are consistently good, strong material and raw vocals, which suit the guitar-driven musical format. There's some good guitar work on both albums. Ride A Rainbow is certainly the most commercial track on the first album but Trippin' Like A Dog And Rockin' Like A Bitch is really the magnum opus. The second album is excellent too. Both are recommended.

Unfortunately the German release of the first album wrongly states that Kiernan O'Conner (drms) and George Hart (bs) were members of the group. Both were only in the live band for a brief period.

John Thomas later played for Edgar Broughton in 1975...(Tapestry of Delights)
