ON this date in 1974 - Gary Wright quit the group Spooky Tooth to go solo.
While Bun Man and Mr. Purple, loyal fans since '67, were extremely upset at this exit, they knew Spooky Tooth had given them a body of music which would stand up over time.
'Better by You, Better by Me', 'Something to Say', and the remake of the Beatles 'I Am the Walrus'.
1/2
If you never heard Mike Harrison do Howlin' Wolf's 'Smokestack Lightning', you missed a great song.
Wright found success; Greg Ridley joined Humble Pie and Luke Grosvenor joined Stealers Wheel...
Not a bad legacy
