The Others

Formed in the summer of 1963 in Hampton, The Others were originally a bunch of rebellious schoolmates. Fired up by the Richmond Sound, spearheaded by the likes of the Rolling Stones and the Yardbirds, The Others picked up the baton and ran with it, swiftly building a devoted fan-base of their own and a circuit of regular gigs, hot on the heels of the slightly more senior bands who had inspired them before leaving town for international acclaim. In the summer of 1964, they recorded their one and only record, Bo Diddley’s “Oh Yeah”, on Polydor (TF 501) Their record has become a collectors’ item and Brian May’s early band, “1984” (later “Smile”) used to include The Others’ self-penned “B”-side, “I’m Taking Her Home” in their own repertoire.

Pete Hammerton, Geoff Coxon, Rob Tolchard and Paul Stewart remained in touch and reformed The Others in 2014. Personal lives got in the way and the Others once again disbanded and have now re-reformed with originals Peter Hammerton, Paul Stewart and Geoff Coxon, with the addition of Tim Staffell, vocalist of Smile, the band that went on to become Queen, and Andrew Heart, bass player, who played with Billy Idol and Bob Geldof.
