History
Flaming Youth was an obscure British band known as a forerunner of what would later be called 'space rock', the group recording an album in 1968 before breaking up. Today, the band is more known as the original group of English singer-songwriter Phil Collins, then 18 years of age, who was the group's drummer, although Flaming Youth's critical acclaim has caused a cult following.
The band consisted of keyboardist Brian Chatton (born Brian Charles Chatton, 19 July 1948, Bolton, Lancashire, England), Ronnie Caryl (on bass guitar), Gordon Smith on guitar and bass, and Collins on drums. Toward the group’s end, Rod Mayall briefly joined on organ, and the group became more free-form.
