RA HO TEP
RA HO TEP (Early 70's)
This was Tim James's band. (Hopefully Tim will furnish us with more details.
I must have seen this three piece (bass, drums and sax / Keys) many times in the early 70's from October 1969
through to at least 1972. I think I also booked them for the Cov Arts
Umbrella in 1970. The Umbrella is where I first saw them, at the Transcendental Cauldron in October 1969 (An Underground Arts fest.). This band was an unusual but highly regarded Avant Garde / experimental jazz with band leader Tim James on Sax and keyboards. I saw them at Warwick University Arts
Fest / The Lanch Poly (now Cov Uni), the Village, Plough - in fact most of the venues of the time, including Coventry Cathedral Ruins (see the photograph).
I don't know the line up though so if Tim or anybody else remembers,
please comment this post with the details.

Old mates from the Marquee days in the sixties ( Boll Weevils) and mad enough to agree to Sphincta handling them.
It was their desire to play in the ruins that started that all off.
I think their Arjens bag is in the gnome archive on here
(BWs having a reunion type thing this Summer..)
