Hedgehoppers Anonymous – The Best Of 1965-1971


Hedgehoppers Anonymous were a 1960s beat group from the United Kingdom. They formed in 1963 as The Trendsetters, and became The Hedgehoppers the following year.[1] Jonathan King took over their record production in 1965, and added "Anonymous" to their name when they said they were popular in Peterborough, and did not want to change their name completely.

 Band members
Mick Tinsley – vocals
John Stewart - lead guitar
Alan Laud – rhythm guitar
Ray Honeybull - bass guitar
Leslie Dash – drums

Known originally as the Trendsetters, this five piece was discovered by producer Jonathan King just as they changed their name to Hedgehoppers, in reference to the fact that the entire band consisted of Royal Air Force pilots (whose reputation for low flying, or "hedge-hopping," was infamous). King suggested the addition of "Anonymous," and set to recording them. "It's Good News Week" was the first result, a catchy and satirical protest song that turned out to be their one hit (it has since been used, in a different version, for the theme song of an Australian TV comedy). Four other singles were released by the group before the final lineup dissolved.
