Glencoe Teen Health

British progressive rock band, early 1970s. Glencoe was one of those bands people tend to overlook, which is a pity since they have a surplus of significant music to offer. Having recorded two albums under the Forever More nameplate, in 1971 the four principals (drummer Stuart Francis, bassist Alan Gorrie, and guitarists Onnie McIntyre and Mick Strode, decided to reinvent themselves as Glencoe. Before the band could record anything Gorrie and McIntyre bailed, reappearing in The Average White Band. Francis and Strode quickly recruited keyboard player Graham Maitland and bassist Norman Watt-Roy. The quartet hit the road touring the English club and college circuit, but in early 1972 Strode quit. He was replaced by guitarist John Turnbull, whose resume included time with The Chosen Few, ARC, and Skip Biffery.
