GALILEO 7
Allan Crockford was an original member of ' Medway garage-rock
legends' (c) The Prisoners, and also The Solarflares (who were
actually better) and The Prime Movers (who weren't) along with Graham
Day, now ripping it up (whatever 'it' is) with his fabulous Gaolers.
Allan was also in the original (and best, obviously) line-ups of the
The James Taylor Quartet and Billy Childish's Thee Headcoats. He was
also in Phaze, Goodchilde and until recently The Stabilisers. He still
also plays in The Vandebilts.
After years of letting other band members write all the material he
finally decided to try writing songs himself and front a band. The
line up of The Galileo 7 was eventually selected from Medway's finest
musicians... the ones who didn't say no:
Paul Moss is Kent's most in demand bassist and plays at least 3 gigs a
night. He hasn't slept for over 5 years.
Viv Bonsels has been playing the organ for over a month. A bassist in
a former life, she is now learning to stick daggers in the keyboard
and how to play the tambourine like Zia McCabe.
Russ Baxter carves his drumsticks from the finest scotch cabers.
THE GALILEO 7: reversing into the future without a rear view mirror.
SMASH
groupe de Paris. Rock - Psyché - Mod - Power - Pop - Garage - Punk . Leurs membres se cotoient depuis leur plus tendre enfance et ont été nourris au grain (Beatles, Jimi Hendrix, The Who, The Small Faces, The Prisoners, Led Zeppelin, etc...). Etre dans l'entourage de Smash c'est plutôt classe. Ils sont réputés pour leur sens du riff et leur penchant naturel pour la séduction. Smash distille une musique sans concession aucune et dont les influences, digérées, sont mises au service d'une énergie puissante et novatrice. Le son à la roots, très roots, les costards 60's, les femmes, les potes, les beuveries, trousers & shoes, la bonne chair, les bonnes chairs.... en un mot le sens de la vie. .. ..
Or brakes. And a dodgy clutch
