David Bowie Brian Eno Can Biography The Rockets Biography by Greg Prato Despite being renowned in certain parts of the world (especially in Italy and their hometown of Paris), the space-age outfit Rockets remains largely obscure -- even though they arrived on the scene at almost he same exact time as Kraftwerk and prefaced Devo by several years.
Their first album, Love Transfusion, was released in 1977. During this period, they also opened some shows for Kiss. The album failed to produce any hits. The 1979 self-titled release featured the hits, "Oh Well" and "Turn Up The Radio". This record also featured David Hood on bass guitar from the famous Muscle Shoals Sound Studio in Alabama.
