The Riot Squad were a pop group from London, initially managed and produced by Larry Page and later, for their reunion, by Joe Meek. The band was formed in late 1964 by Ron Ryan (guitar), Graham Bonney (vocals), Bob Evans (saxophone), Mark Stevens (keyboards), Mike Martin (bass), and Mitch Mitchell (drums). Ron Ryan (born Ronald Patrick Ryan, 20 April 1940, Islington, North London) had, earlier in the decade, written songs and arrangements for The Dave Clark Five, largely uncredited. He left The Riot Squad in early 1965. The only constant member of the band was Bob Evans, who, after the band split for the first time, "reunited" The Riot Squad with all new musicians. Later members included Len Tuckey (guitar), Brian Davies (bass), Roger Crisp (bass), Terry Clifford (guitar), Butch Davis (pi

  • The Riot Squad war eine britische Beatgruppe, die Mitte der 1960er Jahre von den Produzenten Larry Page und Joe Meek erschaffen wurde. Sie nahmen von 1965 bis Mitte 1967 sieben Singles auf und waren im Grunde eine reine Studiogruppe. Zu den Mitgliedern zählten zeitweise u. a. auch Jon Lord, Mitch Mitchell oder Graham Bonney. Ihre Songs waren stark R'n'B angehaucht und erinnerten z. B. an Graham Bond. Nach der letzten Single gingen die Musiker auseinander. (de)
  • The Riot Squad est un groupe pop de Londres formé en 1964 et recomposé à deux reprises, le saxophoniste Bob Evans en étant le seul permanent. David Bowie en prend la tête en 1967, et enregistre avec lui ses premières compositions. Le groupe se sépare définitivement à son départ la même année. (fr)

Later members included Len Tuckey (guitar), Brian Davies (bass), Roger Crisp (bass), Terry Clifford (guitar), Butch Davis (piano), and Derek "Del" Roll (drums). In early 1967, they were joined by David Bowie, who at the time was recording material for his self-titled debut album. The band consisted of six members: Bowie (vocal, guitar, mouth-harp), Rod "Rook" Davies (lead guitar), Brian "Croak" Prebble (bass, vocals), Bob Evans (tenor saxophone, flute, vocals), George "Butch" Davis (keyboards) and Derek "Del" Roll (drums). This incarnation recorded several tracks, including a cover of The Velvet Underground's "I'm Waiting for the Man", and a Velvets-influenced Bowie original called "Little Toy Soldier," which lifts its chorus nearly verbatim from The Velvets' "Venus in Furs." These and other songs featuring David Bowie were officially released in 2012 on The Last Chapter: Mods & Sods. "I Take It That We're Through" was included on the 2004 curated compilation Spacelines by Peter Kember of Spacemen 3. (en)
