1. Keith (born James Barry Keefer)
Keith (born James Barry Keefer) was a U.S. vocalist and one-hit wonder. His first record deal with Columbia Records resulted in the 1966 single, "Caravan of Lonely Men" credited to Keith & the Admirations. Keith then moved to Mercury Records and released his solo debut, "Ain't Gonna Lie."
He is best remembered for the hit "98.6".
His second LP, 1968's "Out of Crank" failed to create public interest. The nadir came when U.S. Army officials nabbed him for draft evasion in the middle of a concert tour. He was inducted and stationed for a year in New Jersey. When he got out, Keith did some independent recording and joined Frank Zappa's 1973 touring band.
Keith recorded one last album, for RCA Records, with no luck, and then left the music business until 1986, when an attempted comeback under his real name proved unsuccessful. He also set up A.I.R. Records and produced albums for several local bands. In the 1990s the singer moved into the television industry, although he continues to play live dates.
2. KEITH
Oli Bayston – Vocals, Keys,
John Waddington – Bass
Johnny Winbolt-Lewis - Drums
Mark Nicholls - Guitar
KEITH – Not one, but four lads from four parts of England (Essex, Ealing, Shrewsbury and Leeds) meeting in (Greater) Manchester on a music course. Four headstrong characters, with wildly different musical roots, these guys are keen for their ideas & instruments to complement each other & so a strong democracy of songs prevail.
‘We don't see a problem with having a broad sound,’ says frontman Oli Bayston. ‘In fact, we see it as a benefit.’ Born into classical musicianship, while the oblique, brooding lyrics he sings examine the layers in relationships, both personal & sometimes political, he speaks more of Manchester’s Acid House heritage than the Stone Roses, any band similarities based more on their unwillingness to be part of any geographically based scene.
Bassist John Waddington, for several years a teenage techno dj, inspired by free hardcore barn parties in Shropshire, designs all the bands artwork himself and thus strengthens the band’s identity in his graphic art alter-ego “Wadders”.
Drummer Johnny Winbolt-Lewis seems to possess the drive for musicianship that took his dad to represent the UK in the Mexico Olympics. He obsessively absorbs & spits out music, a regular gig-goer turning other drummers onto Afrobeat legend Tony Allen, practising religiously, & watching obscure videos of Can, or DJs Cut Chemist & Numark “Keeping Time” with classic funky drummers : “it’s looking for the feel & listening for what’s going’ on around you rather than just studying the music. You hear it with the big bands like Radiohead & Blur, they’ve got a more simple, spacious feel”.
Guitarist Mark Nicholls, combines an ear for the classic song with echoes of African hi-life on current single ‘Back There’, or Eno’s avant garde textures on ‘The Miller’.

Money For Nothing
Keith Lyrics
We can figure the odds
We can pray to the gods
Something for nothing
You can shuffle the deck until you're a wreck
Something for nothing
Money they don't make anymore, at least not around me
Might as well beg from the poor, pitiful me, pitiful me yeah
This is the game, the rules never change
Something for nothing
It's just a roll of the dice that you put on ice
Something for nothing
Money, they don't make anymore, not around me
Might as well beg from the poor, poor poor pitiful me
Pitiful me, yeah, poor pitiful me
Gimme a break, I'm losing my stake
Something for nothing
Oh, leave me alone, I strip to the bone
Something for nothing
Money, they don't make anymore, not around me
Might as well beg from the poor, pitiful me, poor pitiful me, pitiful me
Oh yeah
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
We can pray to the gods
Something for nothing
You can shuffle the deck until you're a wreck
Something for nothing
Money they don't make anymore, at least not around me
Might as well beg from the poor, pitiful me, pitiful me yeah
This is the game, the rules never change
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Money, they don't make anymore, not around me
Might as well beg from the poor, poor poor pitiful me
Pitiful me, yeah, poor pitiful me
Gimme a break, I'm losing my stake
Something for nothing
Oh, leave me alone, I strip to the bone
Something for nothing
Money, they don't make anymore, not around me
Might as well beg from the poor, pitiful me, poor pitiful me, pitiful me
Oh yeah
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing
Something for nothing

It's really a shame that John hasn't yet performed together with Mark Knopfler. That's a collaboration I'd like to hear and see.
@BCBBCL
@Chango Chilemba Stop embarassing yourself on the internet old man
@joojoosasa
@Chango Chilemba Uhhhh..... you okay, man? Seem to be harboring an alarming amount of anger.... Hope you're doing better nowadays...
@athfdrizzle
@Chango Chilemba ur obviously an idiot. John Mayer in his studio albums may be on the pop side for the most part and tame. but this man can shred. I love Mark Knoplfer and Dire Straits to a RREEEAAAALLLLYYYY high level. but I can say that Mayer and Knopfler on stage together would be a sight to see. you are just a those dumbasses that Mark describes in this song about those workers calling musicians "faggots" but in the end that is you. you are just jealous. sad indeed.
@swedensfinest4619
They have a lot in common. Fingerstyle guitar most of the times and not afraid to experiment with genres
@hicksy74
just when i thought i couldn't have more respect for him musically....he covers knopfler
@joojoosasa
Man, I'd pay an unspeakable amount of money to see John Mayer and Keith Urban play a show together. After watching their CMT Crossroads show about a million times, I still can't believe how good they are together.
@dariovannozzi
just as i thought i was at the maximum level of loving Mayer, he covers Knopfler
@guurf2
When Mayer covers an artist, he covers his whole show, not just the music - the style, clothes, stage moves and everything. that's amazing
@zachheffernan5375
guurf2 Haha, just noticed the headband and blazer!
