Gryphon

Gryphon is an English group that played music drawn from medieval and Renaissance sources, with recorders, crumhorns and bassoon alongside guitar, keyboards and drums. The band released five albums between 1973 and 1977, blending early music with folk and progressive rock, and reformed in the 2010s. The original line-up joined two Royal College of Music graduates, Richard Harvey and Brian Gulland, with guitarist Graeme Taylor and drummer Dave Oberlé. Gryphon (1973) was followed by Midnight Mushrumps and Red Queen to Gryphon Three (both 1974), Raindance (1975) and Treason (1977).
