Fantastic guitarist, very underrated. Robbie grew up in Wolverley near Kidderminster Worcs UK.


BIG GEES


This was a band from Kidderminster where a very young Robbie Blunt played:

Elmer O´Shea
guitar
Mick Betson
drums
+ others unknown to me. Help!


SOUTHERN SOUND


Robbie was also a member of a band called Southern Sound, that released a single in 1966. But don´t have any additional info.


BUTCH CLUTCH & THE EXCELLERATORS


Then, he joined Butch Clutch & The Excellerators. Again, I don´t know any other info, so some help here would be very appreciated.


BRONCO


Bronco was a superb band formed by powerful singer Jess Roden, in 1970:

Their first album, Country home, features Clifford T. Ward guesting on vocals. Their 2nd album was Ace of sunlight, recorded with help from Trevor Lucas (vocals), Mick Ralphs (guitar), Ian Hunter (keyboards).

Around 1972, Roden and Blunt left the band.

SILVERHEAD


Robbie Blunt joined Silverhead, replacing their original guitarist, Stevie Forest:

SILVERHEAD #?

They released a 2nd album, Sixteen and savaged, but the band broke up in 1974.


AND THEN...


Then, Robbie formed several short-lived bands, but I can't find proper info about them. Help, please!


STAN WEBB BAND


In October 1974, after Stan Webb´s short stint with Savoy Brown, he forms his own Stan Webb Band:

CHICKEN SHACK #?
Oct 74-Feb 75
êSavoy Brown
Stan Webb

Robbie Blunt

In February 1975, new drummer in Stan Webb Band is Jim Kroeven:

Bob Daisley

Jim Kroeven

Around that time, Stan Webb changes the band name to Broken Glass, but Daisley and Kroeven soon leave.


BROKEN GLASS


Around 1976, Stan Webb (leader of Chicken Shack) starts a new project, Broken Glass with his bandmate Robbie Blunt:

BROKEN GLASS #1
1976-1977
êStan Webb Band
êStan Webb Band

They released a self-titled album, Broken Glass, with help from Miller Anderson (who also guested on some gigs), and produced by Tony Ashton. But in 1977, Stan Webb resurrected Chicken Shack (again with Blunt), so Broken Glass split.


CHICKEN SHACK


In 1977, Stan Webb resurrects mythical band Chicken Shack, keeping Robbie Blunt with him:

CHICKEN SHACK #?

êBroken Glass
êBroken Glass
Stan Webb

Robbie Blunt

Paul Martinez

They recorded an album, The creeper, with help from Tony Ashton.

After a while, Martinez left, and his replacement is Ray Knott, Spevock´s old mate in Babe Ruth:

CHICKEN SHACK #?
1977-1978
Stan Webb
vocals, guitar
Robbie Blunt
guitar, vocals
Ray Knott
bass

but Knott left the band very soon.

Steve York joined Chicken Shack around 1978, replacing Ray Knott:

CHICKEN SHACK #?
1978-1979
Stan Webb
vocals, guitar
Robbie Blunt
guitar, vocals
Steve York
bass

This lineup released a very good album in 1978, That's the way we are, before Spevock left them in 1979.

For a tour in 1979, the drum seat in Chicken Shack was filled by Louis Borenius:

CHICKEN SHACK #
Stan Webb

Robbie Blunt
guitar, vocals
Steve York

The Bucksê

In 1979, all the members (except Stan Webb, of course) left the band.


LITTLE ACRE


He joined a band called Little Acre for some months, but again I don´t have any other info. Help, please!


STEVE GIBBONS BAND


Around 1979-1980, he joined Steve Gibbons Band. The lineups were very diverse, as many friends of Gibbons came to play when they were available. A new album is released in 1980, with this lineup:

- Steve Gibbons (vocals, guitar)
- Robbie Blunt (guitar)
- Trevor Burton (bass, guitar, vocals)
- Bill Paul (sax)
- Nick Pentelow (sax)
- Harry Rix (drums)

The album was called Street parade. There are two different editions, as the German release hasn't the same tracks as the British release.


THE HONEYDRIPPERS


In March 1981, Robert Plant starts a low-key solo project, called The Honeydrippers, and calls his friend Robbie Blunt asking to join him:

ROBERT PLANT BAND #?
1981-?
êLed Zeppelin
Robert Plant
vocals
Ricky Cool
harmonica
Andy Silvester
guitar
Jim Wickman
bass
Keith Evans

Kevin O´Neil

Robert Plant Bandê

3 years later (in 1984) they released a mini-LP, but I don't have it, so I can't know if Robbie is featured there. Does anybody know?

The Honeydrippers mini-tour finished in June 1983, and two months later, Robert Plant decides starting his own solo career.


ROBERT PLANT BAND


Robert Plant forms his own Robert Plant Band, taking Robbie Blunt with him:

ROBERT PLANT BAND #?
1983
êThe Honeydrippers
êThe Honeydrippers
Robert Plant
vocals
Paul Martinez
bass
Jezz Woodroffe
keyboards
Barriemore Barlow
drums

Pictures at eleven was recorded with help from Cozy Powell and Phil Collins on drums, as well as Raf Ravenscroft on sax.

The live tour in 1983 shows Phil Collins guesting on the drum stool:

ROBERT PLANT BAND #?
1983
Robert Plant
vocals
Paul Martinez
bass
Jezz Woodroffe
keyboards
Phil Collins
drums

Next album was The principle of moments, recorded with both Phil Collins and Barriemore Barlow on drums.

In 1984, the drummer is the great, late Richie Hayward (from Little Feat), and they increase the live lineup with another missed musician, Bob Mayo, who acted as additional guitarist and keyboardist:

ROBERT PLANT BAND #?
1984
Robert Plant
vocals
Paul Martinez
bass
Bob Mayo
guitar, keyboards
Jezz Woodroffe
keyboards
Richie Hayward
drums

Shaken´n´stirred was recorded when Bob Mayo had left:

ROBERT PLANT BAND #?
?-Oct 85
Robert Plant
vocals
Paul Martinez
bass
Jezz Woodroffe
keyboards
Richie Hayward
drums

But Plant sees how all the musicians leave him in October 1985.

CHICKEN SHACK (again)


In 1986, Chicken Shack lineup includes some ex-members such as Dave Winthrop or Robbie Blunt:

CHICKEN SHACK #?
1986-?
Stan Webb
vocals, guitar
Robbie Blunt
guitar, vocals
Jan Connolly
bass
Dave Wilkinson
keyboards
John Gunzell
drums

But Winthrop had to leave after a while, due to health problems.


AND THEN...


And then, I have a very big gap (12 years!!) regarding Robbie Blunt´s musical activities. Please, can someone provide info regarding this period?


JULIAN LENNON BAND


In 1998, we find Robbie Blunt in Julian Lennon's band:

JULIAN LENNON BAND #?
?
Julian Lennon
vocals, guitar
Matt Backer
guitar
Simon Edwards
bass
Gregory Darling
keyboards
Manny Elias
drums

02. I still have to add the Robert Plant lineup with Roger Taylor on drums for the TV program Live On The Tube.

03. Robert Plant also had 3 female backing vocalists for some live tour around 1985. Who were they? Does anybody know?

      1. Thanks for this info, Anonymous! I didn't know at all. Great singers all three. I enjoy Ula's album called 'Formerly of The Harlettes', also great backing for Bette Midler. Christine Faith I recognize for being backing vocalist for Lou Reed and Cyndi Lauper, and about Millie Whiteside, I have her in albums by Melissa Manchester and Diana Ross. Thanks again for the contribution!
