Terry Reid is a superbly talented British singer/guitarist and perhaps the most famous "should have been" of the sixties.His first single with Mickie Most, Better By Far, became a radio favourite, but the album, Bang Bang, You're Terry Reid, was not a commercial success. A 1968 tour of the United States with Cream did much to gain Reid a loyal following. His final performance of the tour at the Miami Pop Festival garnered positive reviews from the music press. In 1969, Reid supported various British tours, notably Jethro Tull and Fleetwood Mac.Yardbirds guitarist Jimmy Page became interested in Reid's work,and when The Yardbirds disbanded, Page wanted Reid to fill the vocalist spot for his proposed new group, the New Yardbirds, which was to become Led Zeppelin. Reid had already committed to go on the road with the Rolling Stones (as an opening act on the 1969 US Tour). So he suggested to Page that he consider a young Birmingham singer, Robert Plant, instead, having previously seen Plant's Band of Joy as a support act at one of his concerts. Reid later turned down an offer to join Deep Purple when they decided to replace singer Rod Evans; Ian Gillan was given the position instead.(courtesy Wikipedia.)

In 2006 PJ Harvey emphasized the uniqueness of the concept by stunning the sold-out Opera with her intimate yet powerful solo performance - alone on stage she created an intense experience, shifting effortlessly between multiple instruments."

Marino is still active; as of 2008, recording and touring under his own name and has also been involved in blues recordings with other artists as well.Early on in his career, it was stated in the music press that he claimed to be the reincarnation of Jimi Hendrix, a claim stemming from Marino's playing style being similar to Hendrix'.
