Luke & The Apostles was a 1960s blues group from Toronto known for their 1967 hit "Been Burnt".〔〔 Band members included Canadian guitarist Mike McKenna, Luke Gibson, Peter Jermyn, Jim Jones, and Pat Little.〔 The band is considered to be innovators of the electric Blues.〔 Many of the band members went on to form other notable Canadian bands such as McKenna Mendelson Mainline, Kensington Market and The Modern Rock Quartet (The MRQ). ==Early years== Luke & The Apostles emerged from the blues band Mike’s Trio in 1964. The group was the brainchild of school friends, guitarist Mike McKenna (born April 15, 1946 in Toronto), who had previously played in Whitey & The Roulettes, and bass player Graham Dunsmore. Joining forces with drummer Rick McMurray, Mike’s Trio started gigging at the Cellar club in Toronto’s Yorkville Village playing Jimmy Reed covers, "Walkin' the Dog", etc. Sometime in late 1964, McMurray introduced singer Luke Gibson (born October 5, 1946 in Toronto), who was joined soon afterwards by classically trained keyboard player Peter Jermyn (born November 6, 1946 in Kingston, Ontario). After Jermyn coined the name, Luke & The Apostles – a reference to a very successful local group called Robbie Lane and the Disciples – became a regular fixture on the local club scene, first working at the El Patio and then later the Purple Onion. 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「Luke & The Apostles」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
