A Full Moon Consort included: Chuck Sabatino (vocals, flute, keyboards), Joe Marshall (guitar), Steve Strayhorn (drums), Joe Truttman (bass) and Dave Timmermann (keyboards, sax, and flute). The band featured members of three earlier bands: Jake Jones, King of Hearts, and The Rockets. Jake Jones was originally from the St. Louis area and released two albums on Kapp Records in the early seventies. No one in the group was actually named "Jake Jones". Chuck Sabatino's composition "Elijah" was covered by the Illinois band Head East on their self-titled album "Head East" (1978). Sabatino was a also contributing writer for a number of songs performed by Michael McDonald as well as other artists. He had a stroke while playing for Mike McDonald in Los Angeles in 1994. He died in 1996 in Belleville, Illinois. The band pioneered live performance in a darkened planetarium with a choreographed light show overhead in 1976 at Abrams Planetarium at Michigan State University. Encore performances were held in 1977 and 1978 at the same venue. Joe Marshall still lives in the St. Louis area. He works at St. Louis Music and still plays frequently.
