JOHN LAMBERT
Phil and the Frantics consisted of Phil Kelsey (saxophone and vocals), Bill Powell (guitar), Rick Rose (keyboards), John Lambert (bass), and Steve Forman (drums). Forman left the band to join the Eclectic Mouse and was replaced by a new drummer, Joe Martinez.
Shortly after the release of “I Must Run”, John Lambert and Bill Powell left the band and joined the Beethoven Soul, which released an album on Dot Records. Phil Kelsey put together a third line-up of the Frantics, but by then, their sound was out of step with the current scene.
