Wurzelography
- Wurzels, Past & Present
Below
are listed all known members of Adge Cutler & The Wurzels,
and The Wurzels, past and present. Each band member
links to a page with more information about that person. Below is
a Wurzelogram charting the arrival and
departures of the various band members.
We
also have some information about those people who, while never part
of the band, have played a major part in the story of Adge Cutler
& The Wurzels, and The Wurzels: managers, producers, and other
musicians who have appeared on Wurzels records over the years.
And
not to be forgotten, those musicians who have been credited for
their performances on the various band recordings:
- 'Dapper'
Dan - introduced as the drummer on the track Up The
Clump on the 1968 album Cutler Of The West
(but not credited on the album sleeve).
- Eddie
Clayton and Douggie
Wright - both credited on drums on the 1969 Carry
On Cutler! album.
- Andy
White,
Dougie Wright
and Tony Fennell - all credited on drums on the
1975 The
Wurzels Are Scrumptious!
album.
- Andy
White, Dougie
Wright and The Keith Monk Sound - all credited on
the 1976 Combine Harvester album 'for their support';
Andy and Dougie - one would presume - for their drumming. The
Keith Monks Sound System's input is less obvious, but is probably
involved in "enhancing and enriching the quality of the sound"
(according to their website)
- Sue
Martine and Andy
White - thanked on the 1977 Golden Delicious
album sleeve notes. Andy was, no doubt, the drummer on the album;
Sue's input is more of a mystery, but one would presume that it
is her voice heard on the song School Days, Young Days.
- Rod
Owen
(The Wurzels musical director) and Ed
Welch (The Wurzels arranger) on keyboards, Dougie
Wright (drums) - credited on the 1978 I'll Never
Get A Scrumpy Here album. Bill
Pinell is also mentioned on the sleeve notes on the
album sleeve as 'our ever cheerful drummer' - this is the only
time he received any credits, and he does not appear to have played
on the recording sessions.
- Geoff
Betsworth (acoustic guitar, dobro, steel guitar and hamonies)
and Malcolm Mason (guitar, sequences and hamonies) - played
on and composed material for the I Want To Be An Eddie Stobart
Driver EP (1995).
-
Becky Hutchison, Emma
Richardson, Anna Chaddock and Sarah
Clarke - backing vocals and cheers on I Want To Be
An Eddie Stobart Driver.
- Russ
Crook
- Additional Guitars on Never Mind the Bullocks, Ere's The
Wurzels.
-
Chris Goulstone - 'Rawk' guitar on Rock DJ
and Why Does It Always Rain On Me on Never Mind the
Bullocks, Ere's The Wurzels.
-
Alan Wilson
- Rockabilly guitar on Country House and Tubthumping
on Never Mind the Bullocks, Ere's The Wurzels.
-
Reg Watson - Steel guitar on It Wasn't Me
on Never Mind the Bullocks, Ere's The Wurzels.
- Cally
P.
- Backing vocals on Oo Ar Just A Little Bit, Why
Does It Always Rain On Me, Rock DJ and Tubthumping
on Never Mind the Bullocks, Ere's The Wurzels.
- Bob
Noxious
- Guest vocals on It Wasn't Me, Come On Santa
and Rock DJ on Never Mind the Bullocks, Ere's The
Wurzels.
- Jack,
Ali and Hannah Greenwood
- Backing vocals on Dead From The Waist Down and Rock
DJ on Never Mind the Bullocks, Ere's The Wurzels.
-
Tony Blackburn - Vocals on I
Am a Cider Drinker 07.
In
addition Mervyn Hancock's book Wurzel's
World mentions keyboard player Paul
Buck, bass player Ron
Keys and drummer Bill
Pinnell as musicians 'who have supported the band over
the years'. These appear to be musicians who have played with the
band but never recorded with them.
If
anyone knows anything more about the people listed above, or knows
of anyone missing from the list, then I'd be interested to hear
from you. I'd also be interested to know what became of former band
members - did any of 'em make any further records, take up different
careers, or what? If you have any news, don't keep it to yourself
- please let us know.
