	LyricsVault: Hall of fame: Atomic rooster
		Vincent was once again unhappy with the direction the band was taking, wanting to move away from the dark, almost satanic image portrayed by their second album, towards a lighter, funk/soul sound.
		Vincent decided once again to change the sound of Rooster - gone were the heavy Hammond organ-dominated riffs, and in its place were piano and synthesiser compositions, with the organ non-existent or far back in the mix.
		Vincent was unable to persuade John DuCann to play on the album, but John suggested Bernie Torme as a replacement., and Tom Newman, who produced the album was a close friend of Pink Floyd's Dave Gilmour and managed to arrange for him to play on some of the compositions.

	Atomic Rooster Live in Germany with Vincent Crane & Bernie Torme
		In the meantime, Vincent Crane had gained notoriety as one the longest surviving musicians in the British rock scene.
		When Nick Graham left the Rooster, they became as a trio, with Vincent Crane playing bass on the lower part of his organ keyboard (only later did he start to use a set of bass pedals, as on this current release).
		Crane and DuCann got in RIC PARNELL as a replacement, but the new line-up didn't quite gel and it wasn't long before Parnell had to be replaced by PAUL HAMMOND.

	Atomic Rooster: Paul Green remembers
		Vincent may have read his Gurdjieff, just as he spread and re-spread the Greater and Lesser Arcana of the A.E Waite Tarot Pack, monitoring the regular appearances of the Magician, the Hanged Man, or the Tower Struck by Lightning.
		Maybe such pieces could be heard as a response to a social phenomenon, Crane and co seizing on a mood in the counterculture, the seventies downturn from that brief sixties spasm of utopian euphoria.
		Crane tells me that my role is to keep them in order and make them pay the rent, but it is as futile as trying to collect protection money from the Mob.

	Atomic Rooster - the story so far
		During their tour of the U.S. the band had a number of management and contractual problems and they split half way through the tour, and it was also during this time that Vincent's latent psychiatric problems first became a problem in the form of bizarre manic escapades, followed by long periods of depression in hospital.
		Atomic Rooster MkI consisted of: Vincent Crane - Hammond organ and piano, Carl Palmer - drums, and Nick Graham - bass and vocals.
		Vincent reworked several compositions he had had for a number of years, and put together a new album, titled Headline News.

	Progressive Ears Album Reviews
		Keyboardist Vincent Crane and drummer Carl Palmer formed Atomic Rooster after leaving the madness that was the Crazy World of Arthur Brown.
		The songs, mostly written by Crane, are dark and foreboding, the lyrics a reflection of Crane's battle with manic depression.
		Add Crane playing bass pedals on his organ to compensate for the lack of a bass player, and you have a power trio with the power of a quintet.

	PROGRESSIVEWORLD.NET: REVIEWS BY KEITH 'MUZIKMAN' HANNALECK
		Crane's fascination, or obsession, if you will, with Satan came through in the music once again on "All In Satan's Name" and the bonus track "Satan's Wheel." He really believed in all of that darkness, and he lived it.
		The instrumental "Introduction/Breathless" gives Crane the floor and shows why he was the driving force and the man behind all the music, creatively and figuratively.
		His guitar is on fire, and he gives Crane someone to bounce his resonating keyboards off of.

		Crane formed the band in 1969 with drummer Carl Palmer, both of whom had been in The Crazy World of Arthur Brown.
		Vincent Crane was one of rock music's best keyboard players and he is sorely missed to this day.

	Atomic Rooster
		In 1981 or early '82, shortly after leaving Gillan, I was asked by the great Vincent Crane to play in Atomic Rooster on two tours in Germany and Italy, following some unspecified disagreement between Vincent and Rooster's long standing guitarist, John Cann.
		Vincent had also jammed and played with legends like the Doors, Hendrix, Ginger Baker, Paul McCartney, Stomu Yamashta and far too many others to mention.
		Vincent sadly committed suicide some years ago, to be followed a few months later by drummer Paul Hammond who died of a drug overdose.

		In 1969 keyboard wizard Vincent Crane and drumming sensation Carl Palmer, left mid tour of The Crazy World of Arthur Brown's debut American tour citing irreparable differences with the man himself Arthur Brown, not perhaps the most thought through idea in Rock'n'Roll, but sometimes a musician has to do what a musician does.
		Vincent Crane's vision shines brightly on this album, uncluttered by musical mis-steps or uncertainty.
		On this 1972 release, Vincent Crane played Hammond B3, Grand Piano, and foot pedal bass (all @ the same time) in a very aggressive, rocking style behind a very heavy and funky rhythm section...that often reminds me of Bonham and Page, with Emerson soloing over the top.

		I hope Vincent Crane will take the place he really deserves in your heart like he's got in hearts of others and unfairness will be corrected at least this way, because I still can not get it, why this group did not get recognition (BTW many others too)...
		Atomic Rooster's debut album is a showcase for the virtuosic talents of keyboardist Vincent Crane and drummer Carl Palmer, the latter defecting afterwards to form Emerson, Lake and Palmer.
		Vincent Crane organ playing is already very much accomplished, with its jazz, blues and classical influences very prominent in his solos.

	Chiangmai Mail - Vol. II No. 36 - Saturday September 6 - September 12, 2003 Book-Movies-Music
		They were formed in mid 1969 by keyboard wizard Vincent Crane and Carl Palmer, one of the most bombastic drummers on the planet, after the collapse of “The Crazy World of Arthur Brown” and in the middle of an American tour.
		Vincent Crane simply recruited gangly powerhouse drummer Paul Hammond (possibly influenced by his surname), dived into the studio, and came out with this classic slab of awe-inspiring music.
		Although it was really Crane’s band and the sound of the keyboards is dominant in the same way as, say, Jon Lord was in Deep Purple or Ken Hensley in Uriah Heep, there was still room for the other two to shine.

		Vincent Crane elected to continue the band and with guitarist John Cann and drummer Paul Hammond recorded the second Atomic Rooster album Death Walks Behind You.
		The material here is pretty much split between Cann and Crane and the songs are a big improvement on the debut album that was less than a year behind the group at this point.
		The legacy he left behind however with Atomic Rooster is a sizeable one and one that is still influencing musicians to this day which is a fitting tribute to the man and his music.

		Crane's obsession with the darker side of the psyche was fairly unique at the time and as the title suggests, the album had no shortage of gloom and doom.
		Crane's obsession with the darker side of the psyche was fairly unique at the time and the album occupied a curious corner of hard rock, though most definitely one that was Progressive.
		Crane switches to piano for the bittersweet "Decision/Indecision" and the absolutely sublime "Black Snake" has one of the greatest organ solos ever.

	THE ARTHUR BROWN BAND The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown reviews and MP3
		Vincent Crane was one of the first great organists in rock music and his musical contributions to The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown cannot be underestimated.
		I think that it would be unfair to to call this album psychedelic as Vincent Crane's organ colors are much too dark and full bodied compared to the cheesy Vox and Farfisa sounds that most bands were using in the '60's.
		Arthur Brown is in possess a voice that to define fiendish is say all and Vincent Crane is the second mind of the band.

		Vincent Crane still leads the band, but this time around it is with Chris Farlowe, the soul and r & b singer tranformed and revitalized here.
		Crane builds on the funk groove of the precedent album, In Hearing Of to a more concise and effective sound (one song over five minutes, the album opener ''Time Take my Life'').

		Vincent Crane unable to control his inner demons any longer took his own life on Valentine's Day 1989, He was sadly followed by Paul Hammond who could not cope with life outside of his beloved Rooster in 1991.
