Henderson Gibson – Lead Vocals (died 2013)
Toni Baker – Keyboards/Vocals
Dave Almond – Lead Guitar/Vocals
Mike Ryan – Bass/Vocals
The band started in 1970 playing the Northern club circuit & quickly went on to play some major venues in London, where they were spotted by Ben Findon who signed them to RCA records.
In the same “stable”, were The Dooleys, Billy Ocean & later, the Nolans.
Their first single, “Slow Down” reached the top of the charts in Scandinavia, Holland, Belgium & Germany but failed to chart in the UK probably due to lack of plays on Radio One at the time, who seemed to have the monopoly on whether a record would be listed or not.
There were numerous TV appearances on programmes like “Lift Off” and other pop shows of the time, whereas in Europe, the band did “Top Pop” the Dutch chart show nearly every week for about 2 months appearing with artistes as varied as “ELO” “Pete Wingfield” “Sweet” “The Chanter Sisters” “Hello” & “Thin Lizzie”.
The band’s subsequent singles reached high positions once again in Europe, but still failed to reach any position in the UK charts again.
After numerous successful tours of Scandinavia playing alongside “Sweet” “Darts” “Thin Lizzie” etc the band finally gave up trying to get that elusive hit in the UK & finally disbanded in 1976 leaving 5 singles and one album to their credit
Lead singer “Hendy” sadly passed away March 2013 after contracting lung cancer.

I loved this band in the 70s after hearing them by accident whilst listing to a German radio station in the car. Bought their singles and the album, and now I have a few of their tracks downloaded from itunes.

Good to hear. Keep an eye on the Facebook page. The individual members of the re-formed band have commitments but will be playing gigs next year in the U.K. and Europe.

If so, please release all Shabby Tiger old music tracks worldwide on one CD. Millions of fans are waiting for it. And I hope that the new songs will also appear on a CD. We wait and hope.
