The symphonic rock band Longshanks was formed in October 1987 (in Delft, the Netherlands) as a studio project to record one 'Rush'-like song called "Cycles and Circles" (February 1988). The song was released on tape (in a very limited edition) and attracted a very favourable review in a magazine for symphonic rock (Sym-info no.14, Oct. 1988). The name of the band refers indirectly to a nickname of the character Aragorn from ''The Lord of the Rings'' by J. R. R. Tolkien and so does not refer to the nickname of the English King Edward I. == Longshanks no. 1 == The first line-up of Longshanks consisted of (from left to right): * Peter van Heijningen - lead-guitar electric * Peter ten Haaft - bass * André Kamer - chorus-guitar * Rob Boshuijzen - drums * Jan van der Lugt - lead-guitar acoustic * Alex van de Graaf - vocals Encouraged by the favourable reactions all around, an attempt was made to convert the studio project into a real band, but due to differences in ambitions and musical skills Longshanks no.1 soon fell apart. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Longshanks (band)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
