Zoot Money's
Big Roll Band
Fondly
remembered by those of us of a certain age for 60's gigs at the
Flamingo Club in Soho and Klooks Kleek, tonight we are priviledged to
host the legendary Zoot Money. At school Zoot played the French horn and
sang in the choir, life changed when he discovered Jerry Lee Lewis and
Ray Charles, took up keyboard and, by the beginning of the 1960s,
Hammond organ. In 1961 he formed the Big Roll Band playing soul, jazz
and R&B. Famed far and wide for his combination of outrageous
antics (including "shocking" trouser activity that predated PJ Proby by
several years), tight musicianship and passionate vocal delivery. Zoot's
countless musical associations include Alexis Korner's Blues
Incorporated, Georgie Fame, Alan Price, Ruby Turner, Dick
Heckstall-Smith, Steve Marriott & Ronnie Lane, Peter Green and Eric
Burdon.
