Egg

Egg was an English progressive rock trio from London, made up of Dave Stewart (organ), Mont Campbell (bass, vocals) and Clive Brooks (drums) and active from the late 1960s until 1972. Campbell wrote most of the music. Egg is usually counted as part of the Canterbury scene through Stewart's later bands, although it had no link to the city itself. Stewart, Campbell and Brooks had played with the guitarist Steve Hillage in Uriel, and took the name Egg after Hillage left in 1968. They signed to Decca's Deram label in 1969 and released Egg (1970) and The Polite Force (1971).
