Atomic Rooster

Atomic Rooster were an English progressive rock band, originally composed of former members of the The Crazy World of Arthur Brown. Throughout their history, keyboardist Vincent Crane was the only constant member, and wrote the majority of their material. Their history is defined by two periods: the early-mid 1970s and the early 1980s. Their genre in music is difficult to define, since they went through radical changes in very short times during the life of the band. However, their best-known era represented a more hard rock/progressive rock sound, exemplified by their only hit singles, "Tomorrow Night" (UK No. 11) and "The Devil's Answer" (UK No. 4), both in 1971.

    Quite often ... these little guys, who might be making atomic weapons or who might be guilty of some human rights violation ... are looking for someone to listen to their problems and help them communicate.

    D’Arrast: “Just tell me, has your good Jesus always answered your call?”
    The Rooster: “Always, no, Captain.”
    D’Arrast: “Well, then?”
    The Rooster burst out in a fresh and childlike laugh: “Well, he is free, isn’t he?”
