Tony McPhee of the Groundhogs has passed away. Split was their seminal album back in 1971 influencing many bands afterwards. RIP...
I was introduced to the sound of The Groundhogs at a very early age, must've been 7 or 8, by my uncle who loved them...he gave me copies of Split, which was a superb album, and Thank Christ For The Bomb, for Christmas one year. RIP Tony
Early 70s was their peak. I saw him at the Half Moon in Herne Hill about 15 years ago, he was amazing even then...
