64 Spoons (also known as
The Legendary 64 Spoons, or simply
The Spoons) were a British
rock/
pop band active in the late 1970s and early 1980s, who utilised strong elements of
progressive rock,
jazz-fusion,
punk energy and performance
comedy. Though the band never met with commercial success during their career, they were notable for being the launch-pad for the musical careers of the band's members (most notably lead singer and guitarist
Jakko Jakszyk and drummer/keyboard player Lyndon Connah).
