Stone Cold Sober Studio - Music

Following The Death Of Founding Member Paul Kossoff The Remaining Members Of The Band Back Street Crawler John 'Rabbit' Bundrick Tony Braunagel Terry Wilson And Terry Wilson-Slesser Decided That It Would Be Best To Move On To Both Another Record Label And Another Manager. There Is And Was A History Of Problems With The Band Members Obtaining Record And Publishing Royalties From The Original Manager Of Paul Kossoff. Atlantic Records' Ahmet Ertegun Had Wanted To Replace Paul Kossoff With Mick Taylor Who Had Left The Rolling Stones However Taylor Did Not Want To Replace A Musician Who Had Died. Back Street Crawler Bassist Terry Wilson Had Dinner With Ex-Fleetwood Mac Guitarist Peter Green In London To Find Out Whether Peter's Reclusive And Unusual Lifestyle Had Changed His Mind About Wanting To Play Or Be In The Music Business. Green Was Not Ready To Return To The Stage And Therefore Turned-Down Crawler's Offer. The Band Then Recruited Former If Guitarist Geoff Whitehorn. The Band Was Then Dropped By Atlantic Records Due To Whitehorn's Then Relative Obscurity. The Band Switched Management To A Young American Named Abe Hoch Who Was Working At Swan Song Records At The Time With Led Zeppelin Manager Peter Grant. Hoch Had Close Ties With Epic/CBS Records And Obtained An Offer From Them. Band Members Then Shortened The Band Name To Crawler. Crawler Initially Toured The UK As Part Of A Package Tour Which Included Label Mates Boxer And Moon. Their Debut Album Crawler Did Well In The US Thanks To Airplay Of The Track "Stone Cold Sober" On FM Radio Stations. The Band Concentrated On The American Market. Working With Producer Gary Lyons They Released A Second Album Snake Rattle & Roll. An Exhaustive Series Of Live Performances Saw Crawler As The Support Band For Robin Trower Cheap Trick And Foreigner And A 54-Date Tour Across The US As Support Band For Kansas. At The End Of A US Tour In December 1978 Keyboard Player John 'Rabbit' Bundrick Left To Work With The Who. The Band Folded Soon Afterwards.
