Band Name Origins:

  • According to Arthur Brown, while touring the US with the band Rhinoceros in 1969, one of the members of that band shut himself up in a cabin for an entire weekend, up to his eyeballs on LSD. When he came out, he emerged dressed as a chicken, and declared himself "The Atomic Rooster!". Brown's backing musicians (Vincent Crane and Carl Palmer) took the name home with them when they left the band shortly afterwards and named their new band after that. Submitted by: Mike Healy
