Thunderclap Newman was a British rock band that Pete Townshend of the Who and Kit Lambert formed in 1969 in a bid to showcase the talents of John "Speedy" Keen, Jimmy McCulloch, and Andy "Thunderclap" Newman.

Their single, "Something in the Air", a 1969 UK number one hit, remains in demand for television commercials, film soundtracks and compilations. The band released a critically acclaimed rock album, Hollywood Dream, and three other singles (which appeared on the album), "Accidents", "The Reason" and "Wild Country".

From 1969 until 1971, the nucleus of the band consisted of the songwriter John "Speedy" Keen (vocals, drums, guitar), Andy "Thunderclap" Newman (piano) and Jimmy McCulloch (guitar). Pete Townshend (using the alias "Bijou Drains") played bass guitar on their album and singles, all of which he had recorded and produced at the IBC Studio and his Twickenham home studio. The band augmented its personnel during its tours: in 1969 with James "Jim" Pitman-Avery (bass guitar) and Jack McCulloch (drums); and in 1971 with Ronnie Peel (bass guitar) and Roger Felice (drums). The band folded in April 1971 but was resurrected by Andy Newman with a new group around 2007.

I remember it like it was yesterday. A masterpiece of 1969 and it will live on forever. I was so fortunate to have lived in this era. It takes me back to a place and day in time which i will never forget. All i can say is thank you!!

I was 14 when this masterpiece was recorded, I am so grateful I grew up in the best decade for music. The trash that is churned out nowadays is NOT MUSIC!

My cat just passed away a week and a half ago. We got him in 2013 but had been born in 2011. Just last year I found out that this was his favourite song...ever. I have cried listening to it since his passing. I will play it for him when we scatter his ashes.
