1941

Frederick Stanley 'Rick' Kemp (born 15 November 1941) is an English bass player, guitarist, songwriter, vocalist and record producer, best known for his work with the British folk rock band Steeleye Span.

1960

In the 1960s, he shot to prominence through his work with singer-songwriter Michael Chapman, and had a reputation within the music industry as a rock and blues session bassist, before his transition into British folk rock.

1970

He also played on solo albums by former Steeleye Span member Tim Hart in the 1970s and 1980s.

1971

In 1971 Kemp auditioned for King Crimson, and got the gig shortly before the band recorded their album Islands.

However, he turned down the opportunity to join them permanently, and reportedly departed the band after just a week, with his role as bassist being filled by singer Boz Burrell.
