WILD TURKEY
In December 1970, Glenn Cornick was kicked out of Jethro Tull according
to an interview in A New Day fanzine. Then in 1971 he founded Wild
Turkey, it was the best he could do because he didnīt find any better
offers around and he didnīt know what to do with himself! He says that
this was the two best years on the road as well as in the studio, most
of the
time, even if they didnīt now what they where doing he recalls. They did
two albums and two American tours. Much later he did a third album with
two of the original members, Alan "Tweke" Lewis and Gary Pickford-Hopkins.
