Formed in Sydney in 1973 with Alan Daniels on guitar, George Fisher on bass, Norm Irwin on vocals, Richard Kett on drums, Barry Rice on guitar and Jackie Rice on vocals. The band released four singles and one album 'On The Bandwagon' on Philips Records in 1974. Included on this album is a cover of Otis Redding's classic "Dock Of The Bay". The band also contribute several original songs. The album was recorded at United Sound Sydney and produced by Rod Thomas. Their second single ''Lazy Susan/Something To Say'' was released in NZ and the UK. According to the 5th edition of The Who's Who Of Australian Rock these members didn't come from any other band or didn't go to any other band, so it looks like Mr. George was their only project. The Ted Mulry written hit "So Much Love In My Heart", was their only chart success. Mr. George supported David Cassidy's tour here in the early 70's. Bass player George Fisher died in 2009.
