MORE INFO ON THE ARTISTS/RELEASE:

Silverhead were a British band, fronted by the singer/actor, Michael Des Barres. The other members of the band were: Robbie Blunt (guitar), Rod Rook Davies (guitar, percussion, vocals), Nigel Harrison (bass guitar) and Pete Thompson (Drums, percussion, keyboards, vocals). They recorded two studio albums, Silverhead (1972) and 16 and Savaged (1973), and were a part of the glam rock music scene of the 1970s.

Though they had no real commercial success, Silverhead were serious role models for many sleaze bands in the 1980s. In the UK they played support to bands such as Nazareth at Finsbury Park and Osibisa at the Brixton Sundown, and were the lead band in the Dagenham Roundhouse. Work on a third studio album (working title 'Brutiful') started in 1974, but the group disbanded in July 1974 before it was finished.

In April 2012 the band headed to Tokyo to play some reunion dates.

Band personnel

• Rod Davies - guitar, vocals, percussion

• Michael Des Barres - vocals

• Nigel Harrison - bass

• Pete Thompson - drums, keyboards

• Stevie Forest - guitar, vocals (on Silverhead album)
