Anyone ever heard them??
I saw way back when I was a kid.
They were top of the bill next to a band which featured Allan Gorrie on bass....now with The Average White Band
Allan was great!!........but when the bass player of Thrash walked on with his old P Bass.........he blew everyone off the stage
That amazing player...........was John Wetton in his early days!!........brilliant!

Like Tempest, which was mentioned in a recent discussion about Allan Holdsworth, Mogul Thrash was another jazz-rock band that grew out of Colosseum. Here is Something Sad from their only album, Mogul Thrash.

Thanks for posting that link David!
I've been searching for that band since my copy of the album was stolen many years ago.
So good to hear it again........and the sound of that old P bass....well just pure heaven.

Check out Elegy from them on Youtube as well.
Wetton was a bass monster even way back then!!
