Gabriel - The Crazy World of Arthur Brown

The Crazy World of Arthur Brown were an influential English psychedelic rock group formed by singer-songwriter Arthur Brown in 1967. Their song "Fire" (released in 1968 as a single and on the group's only album) was one of the more famous one hit wonders in the U.K. of the 60s. Their sound and transgressive stage act contributed much to the development of heavy metal. Sadly, their line-up practically dissolved on U.S. tour in 1969. Vincent Crane and Carl Palmer left to form Atomic Rooster, Sean Nicholas went on to Khan (as Nicholas Greenwood), and Theaker to Love and then Rustic Hinge.
