Born
Bad is a short-lived
rockabilly band from
North London formed in
1988 by Guy Bolton and
Alain Whyte. Bolton
introduced Whyte to
Spencer Cobrin, a guy he
knew for having jammed
with in a band that later
became Carlos & The
Bandidos. The fourth
member was recruited
through a newspaper. They
rehearsed a bit and
quickly gigged in the
London area.
Some songs, produced by
Boz Boorer, were recorded.
"Movin' On" and
"Born Bad"
later appeared on the
comp' 20 Blasters From
Blighty.
Arrow then left the band
and his replacement was
Gary "Gaz" Day
(Frantic Flintstones,
Sharks, Gazmen, Nitros...)
but they eventually
disbanded after a few
gigs when Bolton went on
to form another band.
Whyte, Cobrin and Day
evolved into The Memphis
Sinners and then became
Morrissey's backing band.
Bolton joined Mouse (Red
Hot'n'Blue) to form Switchblade
a rockabilly / rockin'
blues band.
