Riff Raff was a UK progressive rock band formed by keyboardist Tommy Eyre in 1972. The band was a continuation on the back of drummers ( and Harrow School of Art friends ) Rod Coombes ( Juicy Lucy Strawbs and Stealers Wheel ) and Joe Czarnecki's ( Plainsmen ) aka Joe Peter's project originally called ' Crikey ' started in 1969 and completed in 1970 when Rod had to accept growing tour commitments with Juicy Lucy. These sessions comprise half of the Riff Raff album ' Outside Looking In ' in which Rod wrote half the songs. Rod says that " the concept of the band was based around two drummers and afro-jazz ( Rod and Joe were great fans of Ginger Baker and Miles Davis ) and fusion ( this album was one of the first true fusion albums to be recorded ). I had worked with Roger with singer Paul Williams ( Juicy Lucy ) and Tommy previously and clearly we all enjoyed doing what we do best-playing freely ".
