Johnny Kidd and the Pirates

Johnny Kidd and the Pirates were an English rock and roll band formed in 1959, noted for a raw, R&B-tinged rock sound and energetic, guitar-driven performances. They combined rock and roll and rockabilly influences with a theatrical pirate image on stage and are often associated with the song "Shakin' All Over". The group's lineup changed over time, with versions of the band continuing into later decades.
