From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Why is this part of the Chicago wikiproject? It was a part of the (British) band's name, for a period of time. Bunnygod888 01:31, 5 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Peter Haycock - Former memrber of UK Rock Group, Climax Blues Band
Two things that I am vaguely remembering about Peter Haycock and the group, Climax Blues Band. Sometime in the early 70's, I am guessing, a group formed that used the name of Climax Blues Band and capitalized on it until the group succefully sued for infringements. They did not rip off the original band's music, just the name.
Another thing I also remember is that sometime after Peter Haycock left the group Climax Blues Band, he worked either solo or formed with another group that produced strictly instrumental rock...no vocals. Their philosophy was that it was easier to produce instrumental work than it was to have to pen lyrics to the tunes.
I heard the music and read the cover of the cassette tape or album cover in the mid-eighties and recognized a certain style that I had enjoyed from the Climax Blues Band. Also, I do not believe that it was his work with the Electric Light Orchestra, as I am very familiar with their sound and name. And while I cannot remember the name of Peter's group at the time, I believe that I would remember if it was ELO. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Daddymartel (talk • contribs) 00:59, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
