Britain's What's On Event Guide
Zoot Money & The Big Roll Band
Quite simply the biggest character on the British rhythm and blues scene since the early 1960s. Zoot formed the first incarnation of the Big Roll band in 1961.
In addition, Zoot has featured with (amongst others) the Grimms, Ellis, Centipede, Kevin Coyne and Kevin Ayers, plus a brief stint with Eric Burdon’s American-based New Animals. In 1980 he signed up to Paul McCartney’s label, MPL, to record the Jim Diamond-produced Mr. Money. In addition to his live music and acting talents Zoot is no mean songwriter – his song ‘It Never Rains But It Pours’ was recorded by Jimmy Witherspoon, for example, and he has also written for such artists as Lulu, Maggie Bell and Long John Baldry.
