Fat Larry's Band: Zoom



A tribute to the video conferencing app that Covid-19 has made suddenly indispensable.

Zoom was a hit in the UK (but not the US) in 1982.

Fat Larry, you may not be surprised to learn, is the drummer. He was originally the singer too, but by now the role had been taken over by Freddie Campbell.

Which means we can add this band to the list (Spencer Davis Group, Santana, J. Geils Band...) of those named after a member other than their lead singer.
