SPENCER DAVIS
Spencer Davis (born Spencer David Nelson Davies, 17 July 1939) is a Welsh musician and multi-instrumentalist, and the founder of the 1960s rock band The Spencer Davis Group. Davis dropped the E in Davies and became Davis because in England and in the US his last name was pronounced “Daveys” and not Davis as in the Welsh pronunciation. (More from Wikipedia)
Tret Fure, a multi-talented women’s music artist, has more of a hard-rock edge to her music than most of the genre’s artists; she grew up in the Midwest and became a professional musician when she was 16. Tret Fure performed on one of Spencer Davis’s early solo albums, Mousetrap (1972) and also wrote the opening song on the album, “Rainy Season”.
