Steve Gibbons (Band):


Trevor Burton, ex-The Move, shone on Fender
bass under his peaked biker's cap (far left in
group photo). The original 'Johnny Cool'?

Great singer/songwriter with tons of credibility and style. Impressive on stage - and as a top notch songsmith. Shades of both Bob Dylan and Chuck Berry. Won't be found filed under "Blues", rather under "Pub Rock" - but in my opinion he defies filing altogether. Once upon a time a member of Idle Race I'm told.

His amazing outfit, The Steve Gibbons Band, rocked hard in the late 70's. I am still floored by their album foursome ('76 - '78) 'Any Road Up', 'Rollin' On', 'Caught In The Act - SGB Live' and 'Down In The Bunker'. The first two mentioned are rereleased together on CD (pictured left). An act of humanity! Play 'Rollin' one more time, pleez!
