Andrew Ellison (born 5 July 1945 in Finchley, London, England) is an English musician and vocalist, best known as the frontman in John's Children, Jet and Radio Stars.[1]
Biography
He attended an Outward Bound school in Box Hill, Surrey, where he met Chris Townson.[2] Ellison and Townson co-founded the rock group John's Children.
John's Children also featured Marc Bolan and Chris Townson. A song sung by Ellison, "It's Been A Long Time",[1] appears on the soundtrack to the film, Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush. "It's Been A Long Time" also featured on the compilation album, Backtrack 1, a Track Records release featuring The Who and Jimi Hendrix amongst others.[3]
Jet released an album on CBS Records in 1975,[4] toured as support to Hunter-Ronson and then became Radio Stars,[5] who had one UK Top 40 hit, "Nervous Wreck" in early 1978. It peaked at No. 39.[6] The B-side to the single was a cover of Marc Bolan's "Horrible Breath", a John's Children staple.[7]
