Amen Corner was one of the
biggest influences on the sixties pop scene to ever come out
of Wales.
With their own brand of West
Coast (Wales) Music, a mixture of mod psychedelic power pop,
with heavy horns, swirling Hammond organ, the distinctive
voice of Andy Fairweather-Low and their power house live
show made them one of the most exciting bands around at the
time.
With million seller hits like
'Gin House', 'Bend Me Shape Me', 'If Paradise Was Half as
Nice', 'High in the Sky' and 'Hello Suzie' they became a
household name in the late sixties.
Over the years there have been
many requests for the band to reform but due to circumstance
this will unfortunately never happen. However, as a result
of a long standing friendship between sax man Frogman Curtis
and Alan Jones (one of the original founder member’s) The
New Amen Corner has been formed to keep the memory and music
alive of this legendary band
