Although the pub rock explosion is remembered as a distinctly U.K. -- and, more specifically, London -- based phenomenon, more than a handful of its greatest practitioners actually hailed from considerably further afield. Eggs over Easy and Roogalator's Danny Adler were Americans, the Winkies' Phil Rambow was Canadian, Little Bob Story was French, while Bees Make Honey, one of the most fondly regarded of the genre's originators, was founded on the remains of one of Ireland's most popular showbands, the Alpine Seven.
That band's leader, string bassist Barry Richardson, moved to London in the late '60s, performing with both the jazz act the Brian Lemon Trio and a country-rock group Jan & the Southerners.
