[OBonio]

Possibly 'The Crazy World of Arthur Brown'?

[roxiefairy]

The rather wonderful Arthur Brown is still performing today, although I think he ditched the flaming helmet when his hair caught fire once too often! Fans of the earliest incarnation of the band may remember a (very) young Carl Palmer from Emerson Lake And Palmer, on drums.

Why is it, whenever I hear that music, I think of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, even though I know OBonio's right?

Are the two linked, or have I just lost the plot?

It's definitely The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, who influenced Alice Cooper, allegedly.
