Timeline

1946

Andy Pyle (born 15 July 1946) is a British bassist who is best known for playing with The Kinks from 1976 to 1978.

1960

A musician whose career dates back to the mid-1960s, Pyle was born in Luton in 1946 and reached his teenage years when rock & roll supplanted skiffle as the music of choice for British youth.

As a budding young musician, however, he was turning more towards blues than rock & roll, as evidenced by his first professional concert with Victor Brox's Blues Train, directed by the future member of the Aynsley Dunbar Retaliation.

Then, Jensen's Moods, a band composed of British bluesman Mick Abrahams on guitar and vocals, Pete Fensome on vocals and Clive Bunker on drums, who then changed their name to McGregor's Engine.

1967

Pyle continued his career with the McGregor's Engine group in his home town of Luton, Bedfordshire, in 1967.

That same year, Abrahams caught the attention of flautist-singer Ian Anderson, while McGregor's Engine first played John Evan Band with which officiates Anderson, during a concert.

When Bunker and Abrahams left McGregor's Engine to form Jethro Tull with Ian Anderson on flute and vocals and Glenn Cornick on bass, Pyle continued to play with local bands.

Abrahams left Jethro Tull after the first album This Was, following a dispute with Anderson about the band's future, to form Blodwyn Pig with Pyle on bass, Jack Lancaster on saxophone and Ron Berg on drums.

1968

Prior to that, he was in Blodwyn Pig (1968–1972) and Savoy Brown (1972–1974).

1971

After the Blodwyn Pig disbanded, Pyle joined Juicy Lucy (who includes Micky Moody who would play later with Whitesnake) and Savoy Brown, as well as sessions for Rod Stewart on his 1971 album, Every Picture Tells a Story.

1972

1975

From 1975 to 1976, Pyle spent a year recording and playing with guitarist Alvin Lee, a former Ten Years After guitarist.

He playeds on Lee's first solo album, Pump Iron with former King Crimson musicians, Boz Burrell on bass, Ian Wallace on drums, and Mel Collins on saxophone.

The same year, he participated in the concept album Peter and the Wolf by Jack Lancaster and Robin Lumley, with musicians of different horizons, Alvin Lee, Gary Moore and John Goodsall on guitar, Percy Jones and Dave Marquee at the bass, Brian Eno, Manfred Mann on synths, Bill Bruford and Phil Collins on drums, Stephane Grapelli on violin, etc.

1976

At the end of 1976, Pyle auditioned for the bassist position with the Kinks following the departure of John Dalton.

1977

He played on Mr. Big Man on the band's 1977 album Sleepwalker, the single only track Father Christmas and 1978's Misfits where he only appeared on six of the ten songs, before leaving with keyboardist John Gosling.

The two formed an ephemeral group, initially called United (with future Iron Maiden guitarist, Dennis Stratton), then Network.

His work with them was short-lived, since he was then called by his old friend Gary Moore, with whom he had previously worked as a session musician, to join his band in a series of live dates, which resulted in an album Live at The Marquee.

Pyle then joined a reformed version of Chicken Shack before teaming up with their leader Stan Webb in the Speedway band.

1980

In the mid-1980s, he joined Wishbone Ash, then Mick Abrahams and Clive Bunker, as well as Dick Heckstall-Smith saxophone legend making their return for another tour with Blodwyn Pig.

With Bernie Marsden, he was part of the Green & Blue All-Stars, and he was back with Gary Moore, this time in the Midnight Blues Band.

Even though he played everything from traditional rock to hard rock, he prefers blues and even managed to perform in the Carey Bell and Nappy Brown sessions in the 1980s.

1985

Pyle produced his only solo album in 1985 titled Barrier Language which was only issued in Germany and went virtually unnoticed elsewhere.

However, Andy Powell and Pyle remained close friends and continued to collaborate on songs.

1990
