FAMILY
ROGER CHAPMAN, CHARLIE WHITNEY, POLI PALMER, JOHN WETTON, ROB TOWNSHEND
A blues-based band with art rock inclinations, Family were one of the more interesting groups
of hippie-era Britain. Fronted by the deft and frequently excellent guitar playing of
John "Charlie" Whitney and the raspy, whiskey-and-cigarette voice of Roger Chapman,
Family were much loved in England and Europe but barely achieved cult status in America.
While bands like Jethro Tull, Ten Years After, and the Keith Emerson-led Nice
(and later Emerson, Lake & Palmer) sold lots of records, Family, who frequently toured
with these bands, were left in the shadows, an odd band loved by a small but rabid group of fans.
Although the band's first official release was Music in a Doll's House in 1968,
the roots of the band went back as far as the early '60s,
when Whitney started a rhythm & blues/soul band called the Farinas
