DRUMMOND


Drummond was a studio recording band for record label Fable. The first single ''For You Blue / The Grasshopper'' was recorded in 1970 by power trio Bulldog. The single went nowhere. Drummond's second and most successful single was recorded by Allison Gros. The band was recruited to record a "Chipmunk"-style cover version of a 1950s rock song, "Daddy Cool". This track spent eight weeks at the top of the Go-Set National Top 40 in 1971. The single was also released in NZ and South Africa. Drummond recorded a further three singles under different ensembles of studio musicians until September 1975.
