One of England's top rock & roll outfits before the Beatles led the early-'60s Beat Boom, Johnny Kidd & the Pirates are best remembered today for one international rock classic ("Shakin' All Over") and as a seminal influence on several more famous groups, most notably the Who.
Johnny Kidd (born Frederick Heath) had formed his first band, a skiffle group called the Five Nutters, in 1957.
