Not to be confused with The Alec Johnson band who recorded the single "Mysterious Coon" in 1928, on Columbia Records.
THE ALEC JOHNSON BAND was a short lived Hard Rock band formed at the dawn of the NWOBHM era by journeyman vocalist/guitarist Alec Johnson.
By the time of the band's lone release, the 1979 "Busman's Holiday" 7", Johnson had played already with the likes of 100 WATT RABBIT, THE TANGLED WEB, SHABAZZ, SPONTANEOUS COMBUSTION, TIME, DESTINY and MAGIC.
Shortly after the single's release, Johnson was asked by his old friend, drummer Steve Bartley to audition for a new band called NIGHTWING. (see NIGHTWING entry for further information)
