Wild Turkey - Brother

In the distant past, somewhere in 1973, I saw this band as the support act for Roxy Music. It was one of those legendary night concerts in De Doelen (Rotterdam) that were given there at the time. Roxy Music was great, they were still at the beginning of their career, but I also have good memories of this band. The real breakthrough never came, probably due to the many band changes.

 

Wild Turkey - Brother Live in London, BBC In Concert 1973. The line-up during this recording: Glen Cornick - bass, Gary Pickford Hopkins - vocals, guitar, Jeff Jones - drums, Mick Dyche - slide guitar, guitar, Bernie Marsden - guitar, Steve Gurl - piano, synth

After Glen Cornick left Jethro Tull, he formed the band Wild Turkey in 1971, initially with: Graham Williams (guitar), Alan 'Tweke' Lewis (guitar), John "Pugwash" Weathers (ex-Pete Brown & Piblokto !) (drums) and Gary Pickford-Hopkins (ex-Eyes of Blue) on vocals; but Weathers and Williams soon left the band to join Graham Bond's Magick, before Wild Turkey had recorded any material. Their replacements were Jon Blackmore (guitar and vocals) and Jeff Jones (ex-Man) on (drums). Together with Cornick, Tweke and Gary they recorded Wild Turkey's first album Battle "Hymn". In 1972 Mick Dyche, replaced Jon Blackmore. Steve Gurl joined on keyboards and the band recorded the second album "Turkey". In 1974, Lewis joined the band "Man" and Wild Turkey continued with a guitarist for the time being until Bernie Marsden joined the band. Kevin Currie replaced Jones on drums. However, when singer Gary Pickford-Hopkins left the band to work with Rick Wakeman, it marked the end of the band in 1974.

 
 Glen Cornick

In 1996 the band reunited with Glenn Cornick, Gary Pickford Hopkins and Alan Tweke Lewis. A new album was also released "The Stealer Of Years"
