THE OTHERS
Eel Pie Club, TW1 3SZ , [Venue Details]Formed in the summer of 1963 in the south-west London suburb of Hampton, The Others were originally a bunch of rebellious schoolmates.
Fired up by the Richmond Sound, spearheaded by the likes of the Rolling Stones and the Yardbirds - the south's answer to the Liverpool Sound - The Others picked up the baton and ran with it, swiftly building a devoted fan-base of their own and a circuit of regular gigs, hot on the heels of the slightly more senior bands who had inspired them before leaving town for international acclaim.
In the summer of 1964, they recorded their one and only record, Bo Diddley's "Oh Yeah", on Polydor (TF 501) but by the time of its release, parental pressure had forced two of the band to quit and return to school to study for their "A"-level exams. They were replaced by Peter Hammerton on guitar and Geoff Coxon on drums, who feature in the promotional shots for the record. The band attained a new excellence,"very much in the same class as the Yardbirds" according to Brian May of Queen, a former schoolmate and the record was a turntable hit on the rock radio programmes of the day and was highly praised by Jimmy Saville in his national press pop column. Then in 1964, parental pressure led to Paul Stewart quitting the band.
