The Artwoods era uma banda de rock inglesa que se formou em 1963 e estiveram profissionalmente ativos entre 1964 e 1967. Eles eram uma atração ao vivo bem popular, rivalizando com grupos como The Animals, porém, apesar de terem lançado vários singles e um álbum, suas vendas nunca refletiram sua popularidade.

History

Singer Arthur Wood, from whom the band took their name, was the eldest brother of Ronnie Wood (who later found fame with the Faces and Rolling Stones). Art Wood had been a vocalist with Alexis Korner’s Blues Incorporated for a short period during 1962, simultaneously fronting his own group, the Art Wood Combo. When keyboardist Jon Lord and guitarist Derek Griffiths from Red Bludd’s Bluesicians joined the Art Wood Combo, the Artwoods were formed. With Keef Hartley, formerly with Rory Storm & The Hurricanes, joining on drums and Malcolm Pool from the Roadrunners joining as bassist, in December 1964 the band turned professional, securing a residency at London’s 100 Club and signing a recording contract with Decca Records.

The intended debut single, a cover of Muddy Waters’ “Hoochie Coochie Man”, was shelved in favour of a rendition of an old Leadbelly song, “Sweet Mary”. Although it didn’t reach the charts, it got sufficient airplay to bring the band a lot of live work, including an appearance on the first live edition of Ready Steady Go!. Their second record, “Oh My Love”, was another blues cover. Like its predecessor (and subsequent releases), it failed to chart.
