Introduction

Welcome to the Terry Reid fansite. Although independently produced the site exists with Terry's knowledge and blessing.
You may well have come searching for Terry with the expectation that he was retired, lost in space or even entertaining the angels . Well you'd be wrong , Terry is alive and well, living in California.
IN 2005 Terry made a triumphant return to the UK, appearing at Glastonbury a major European festival where he braved rain and mud to thrill fans old and new. He's toured in the UK in 2006 and 2007.

If you've never heard of Terry Reid , go ask some old guy with a beard and a faraway look in his eyes , whisper ' Superlungs' , ' Silver White Light ' , 'May Fly' ,'Rich Kid Blues ' watch him get up and start shaking parts that haven't been shaken ( for very good reasons ) for a long time.He tends to have that lasting effect on those who have heard the voice.
If thats too daunting a prospect follow the links and learn a little more, you will not be disappointed.
Better still open that dusty wallet and go and buy some of his music.

Most prominent in the late 60's early 70's Terry has had a roller coaster of a career with numerous doses of incredible bad luck. All well documented on the bio pages.
Whatever the past held, this site's main aim is to celebrate and promote the man, so read the history and weep, then dry your eyes and be as happy as I am that he's done what he's done and still has more to give.

Raed all about him on the extensive Biography pages and check out the music he's made on the albums pages.

For sure Terry is pleased to know that people still remember him and incredibly touched at the rapturous things fans say about him. If for no other reason the website has served its purpose in allowing fans a way of expressing their appreciation. Although not exactly a frequent surfer Terry (he's much more af an analog kind of guy) or his close friends do check out the site from time to time and if I think Terry hasn't looked for a while I summarise the juicier guestbook entries for him.
So don't be shy sign the book and tell Terry what you think,one way or another it will be brought to his personal attention.If you leave an e.mail address with your guestbook entry you'll get added to the news-list and will receive irregular updates news etc.

There's an active forum for discussing all things Terry and keeping an eye out fro any breaking news.

Availabilty of his music has been a problem and I really do appreciate the difficulty here but I'm afraid the site can't be used as venue for file swapping or CDRs so please don't advertise the same in guestbook or on the forum page.

Try searching Amazon or 101cdrom or any big online seller.
BGO have their direct sales site at http://www.bgo-records.com

I have called the site 'Temple' because if you listen to the song Marking Time ( track 4 ' Terry Reid ' ) backwards whilst under the influence of a substance of your choosing Terry can be quite clearly heard singing ' I am beelzebub , worship me ' ..... who I am to disobey.

Anyway enjoy the site , always happy to receive new information and corrections to any errors I've made.

Up and coming Terry gigs are listed on the news page and forum.
To make sure of advance information email me and get on the mailing list.
