Roxy Blue

A short lived outfit whose straight-ahead hook heavy pop metal came to late in the glam movement to make any sort of splash. Their only album was an unoriginal affair, but rocked from start to finish with the same flair as early Van Halen.

Formed in Memphis, Tennessee in 1990, by Todd Poole (vocals), former Atlanta Guitar Institute members Sid Fletcher (guitar) and Josh Weil (bass), and Scotty T (drums, who was touring the country with a Memphis blues band at the young age of fourteen).Playing around Memphis, Roxy Blue soon became local favorites and attracted Geffen executive Tom Zutaut at one of their shows. He signed the band and in 1992, their debut album was released.

Even an album produced by Mike Clink, sporting an outrageous cover and the debut single "Rob The Cradle" claiming "the one-take track, recorded live to tape with no edits, no dubs, no breaks, no shit," couldn't make the group stars. The group broke up shortly after, never to be heard from again.
