Opal Butterfly

The band included Simon King (drums) and, for a short time, Lemmy, who later joined Hawkwind.

These included cover versions of "I Had Too Much to Dream (Last Night)" and "Wind Up Toys", both tracks by The Electric Prunes.

The group's most notable recordings came in 1969 with an organ-backed cover version/remake of The Who composition "Mary Anne With The Shaky Hand" with the B-side being "My Gration Or?".

Despite radio play, the single only gained them local support and the band revamped its line-up and changed labels to Polydor.

He started a friendship with King who then asked him to join, which lasted until the group's decision to kick him a few months later.

However, the single caused a slight uproar when the cover showed a nude woman and radio stations refused to play it.
