Keith West
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Keith West (born Keith Alan Hopkins, 6 December 1943 [1] [2] [3], in Dagenham, Essex, England) was a member of Tomorrow, a 1960s psychedelic rock band. West composed most of the band's songs (duly credited to Keith Hopkins). Despite critical acclaim and support from DJ John Peel, who featured them on his "Perfumed Garden" BBC Radio 1 show, the band was not a great financial success.
West himself is perhaps better known as a participant of Mark Wirtz’s A Teenage Opera, completed in 2002. He was the singer of "Excerpt from a Teenage Opera," also known as "Grocer Jack," which reached No. 2 on the UK Singles Chart in 1967. He also performed "Sam," which reached the bottom end of the Top 40 the same year.
West continues to produce and record music, which is used primarily within the advertising industry.
