Biography
Formed in San Francisco in 1966, the Steve Miller Band moved from psychedelic blues rock on 'Children of the Future' and 'Sailor' to the streamlined classic rock of 'The Joker', 'Fly Like an Eagle' and 'Book of Dreams' for #Capitol Records#. Led throughout by Steve Miller on guitar and lead vocals, the band survived extensive lineup changes, scored a further number one single with 'Abracadabra' in 1982, and later returned to its blues roots while continuing as a major live draw.
