Artist Portrait

Captain Thunder


Rock

Captain Thunder formed in the early seventies in Adelaide. Their first release "Blind Man's Greed" backed with "If I Were A Carpenter" on the "Raven" label went to number 23 on the Adelaide charts. There was some controversy when local radio refused to play the single even though it was selling surprisingly well. The band competed in the 1971 Battle of the Bands. Although they didn't get a place in the Adelaide battle, Captain Thunder proved to all and sundry that they had a future and had a lot going going for them. Unfortunately they disbanded before realising their full potential. They played at Adelaide venues such as "Headquarters", "Sgt. Peppers", and "The Scene". Geoffrey Stapleton went to play with The Aliens and GANGgajang. Members Geoffrey Stapleton (drums) Robin Michael (guitar) Rodney Gunner (vocals) Michael Kaploon (bass)
