Steve Took's Horns
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Steve Took's Horns was an English rock band with blues rock and punk influences formed in 1977 by former Tyrannosaurus Rex percussionist (and Pink Fairies founder) turned solo artist Steve Peregrin Took together with Trev Thoms, later of Nik Turner's Inner City Unit (although Took had been using the bandname since 1976). The band was the first in which Thoms worked with his future Inner City Unit bandmate Ermanno Ghisio Erba aka Dino Ferari, in what would be a long string of collaborations until Thoms' death in 2010. A 2004 posthumous album of the band was reviewed in Classic Rock magazine,[1] a 1978 live performance was reviewed in Melody Maker,[2] the band's 1977 recording session was described at length in a Forced Exposure interview with eyewitness Larry Wallis[3] and the band was euologised in a Record Collector article about Took written by Luke Haines.[4]
