Formed by musicians living in Catford in southeast London, The Heads formed in late 1966 and were featured on page 2 of The South East London Mercury on 20 April 1967 (see photo above).
Richard London may be the same musician who went on to Joe E Young & The Tonicks in 1968 while Clinton Creary, who was originally from Jamaica, definitely later played with Black Velvet.
Around June 1967, the band changed name to The Stax.
We’d love to hear from anyone who can add more information in the comments below.
