Gypsy
This Leicester-based group made its debut in 1968 under the name Legay. Having completed only one single, John Knapp (vocals/guitar/keyboards), Robin Pizer (guitar/vocals), Rod Read (guitar/vocals), David McCarthy (bass/vocals) and Moth Smith (drums), took a new name, Gypsy, and were one of the attractions featured at the 1969 Isle Of Wight festival. Their debut album showed great promise and showcased an engaging, tight-harmony style reminiscent of Moby Grape. Ray Martinez then replaced Rod Read, but the group's second album lacked the purpose of its predecessor and Gypsy broke up soon after its release.
