Charlie

Charlie was a British rock band formed in 1971 by singer/songwriter Terry Thomas. The group was most active as a recording unit from the mid-1970s to 1986. Charlie never charted in the UK but had four minor hits in the US: "Turning To You" (1977) "She Loves to Be In Love" (1978), "Killer Cut" (1979) and "It's Inevitable" (1983).
The band was briefly called "Charlie Cuckoo" (after a racehorse), but soon became known simply as "Charlie". The original members were:
*Terry Thomas – lead vocals, guitar
*John Anderson – backing vocals, bass
*Steve Gadd – drums (not to be confused with American session drummer of the same name)
*Martin Smith – backing vocals, guitar
