(About Peter Bardens)
In 1965 He was the keyboard player with Them. Between 1966 and 1967 he was with the Shotgun Express, a group featuring Rod Stewart, Peter Green and Mick Fleetwood. His band Pete B's Looners, also included Green and Fleetwood. After this he released solo work.

He left Camel in 1978, and joined Van Morrison's band for Wavelength (1978) and the following tour, before he had a solo career that led him into electronica. In 1984 he was a member of Keats. During the late 80s and early 90s, he released a number of solo electronic albums including the moderately successful Seen One Earth in 1986. His first single from that album, "In Dreams", enjoyed heavy airplay on FM rock stations in the USA and Australia. In 1988 he followed this with Speed of Light, on which his long time friend Mick Fleetwood guest featured on several tracks on drums. "Whisper in the Wind" and "Gold" were released as singles in the US. Peter also recorded with MSG and Michael Schenker in the late 80's.
