Lizard

Band, GB
Singer / Musician of Rock

Members: * Dave Connors (saxophone), * Greg Hill (bass), * Robert Souter (drums), * Mich Tulk (guitar, vocals), * John Wheeler (keyboards) Michael (Mick) Tulk had previously played guitar with British freak-beat band THE UNTAMED during the mid-1960s. Greg Hill, Dave Conners and Rob Souter had previously been members of the Sydney-based WHITE WINE, although none of them actually played on the band’s “Overflow” LP (Festival 1970). Mick Tulk and Dave Conners also appeared on GULLIVER SMITH’s “The Band's Alright But the Singer Is…” LP (Reprise 1973). Dave Conners also performed on the following LPs: JADE WARRIOR “Released” (Vertigo 1971) and GRAHAM PARKER & THE RUMOUR’s “Howlin’ Wind” (1976). Rob Souter was drummer for the DYNAMIC HEPNOTICS (1980-86). LIZARD split up in early 1973 after having laid down several tracks at EMI Studios (Sydney) during December 1972. These tracks eventually appeared on the band’s “Rosalyn” b/w “Cecil” single (released 7 June 1973), and “Bad Companions” LP (released July 1973). Initially, the album was slated to appear as “Starve the Lizards” (imagine that!), but this was replaced by the “Bad Companions” title, possibly in reference to Gulliver Smith’s band name at the time.
