Strawberry Bricks Entry:
Born in 1942, organist and vocalist George Bruno “Zoot” Money spent the early 60s leading his Big Roll Band, famous for its residency at the Flamingo Club in Soho. The core band, comprised of Money, bassist Paul Williams, drummer Colin Allen and guitarist Andy Summers, as well as a few sax and flute players, had minor success with a single in 1965, “Big Time Operator” b/w “Zoot’s Sermon.” By the time the psychedelic wave of 1967 hit, the band had left their mod-leaning R&B sound behind. Pat Donaldson replaced Williams as bassist, and the band changed its name to Dantalian’s Chariot.
