Artist Info: Tramline

Tramline was a hard-rocking blues-based quartet, not too different from Free and other guitar-heavy outfits of the late '60s, and for a time even shared label affiliation with the latter band.

Formed by John McCoy (vocals, harmonica), Mick Moody (guitar), Terry Sidgwick (bass, vocals), and Terry Popple (drums). Chris Blackwell plucked them from the club scene in 1968 and signed them to Island Records, whence they began work on their debut LP, Somewhere Down the Line (with Blackwell producing). [read more...]
