About Roger Ruskin Spear
Artist Biography
Vivian Stanshall and Neil Innes are usually credited as the prime creative forces in the Bonzo Dog Doo Dah Band, but founder-member Roger Ruskin Spear also made substantial contributions. In addition to playing several instruments (most prominently saxophone) and devising imaginative robots and stage props for their live performances, Spear wrote a couple of their wittiest early tunes, "Trouser Press" and "Shirt." He released a few solo records in the early 1970s, even opening for the Who on a 1971 European tour. ~ Richie Unterberger
