About Laurence Cooper

I have been playing as long as I can remember either in or out of bands.

I was first inspired to get into serious music when I heard the strident and electrifying sounds of Clapton on the first Bluesbreakers album with John Mayall and Cream's first album. I hadn't heard anything like it before. And then I heard Hendrix and that clinched it. But Cream especially were and still are an inspiration. I was lucky enough to be working at EMI in Wellington New Zealand and got to first hear these albums before they were released.

My love of music lead me into playing with other musicians. In the '60's and 70's I toured and recorded with two Wellington bands- “Gutbucket”, and “Tapestry”. Gutbucket is mentioned in New Zealand publications- When Rock Got Rollin',and Stranded in Paradise”(where Gutbucket is mentioned as an underground band). Tapestry is also mentioned in Stranded in Paradise.
