History

The original line-up for Captain Beyond were singer Rod Evans, guitarist Larry "Rhino" Reinhardt, bassist Lee Dorman, and drummer Bobby Caldwell.^[1] Evans was the original lead singer for Deep Purple and probably best known for his vocals on their 1968 debut chart-breaker "Hush"; Rheinhardt and Dorman had played in Iron Butterfly.^[1] Caldwell had come to prominence playing with Johnny Winter.^[1] This line-up recorded the self-titled debut album, released in 1972. Following this album Caldwell left the band to join Derringer and was replaced by drummer Brian Glascock.^[2] Also joining the band around this time were Reese Wynans (of Double Trouble) on keyboards and Guille Garcia on congas. The record company's chosen producer, Giorgio Gomelski, did not like Glascock's drumming and requested a new drummer.^[2] Glascock was released and Martin Rodriguez was brought in on drums on the recomendation of Garcia.^[2] This six man line-up recorded the the group's second album, Sufficiently Breathless. Tension during the recording of Sufficiently Breathless led to Evans quitting.^[2] The original line-up reformed later in 1973 for a US tour but the band split up at the end of year.^[2] This article or section does not adequately cite its references or sources. ...
