Gerald Michael "Jerry" Edmonton (October 24, 1946 – November 28, 1993), born Gerald McCrohan, was the drummer for the rock band Steppenwolf. He was born in Oshawa, Ontario, Canada.〔 Both he and his brother Dennis, also known as Mars Bonfire, changed their surnames to Edmonton during the 1960s, when they performed in a group called The Sparrows. John Kay and Goldy McJohn joined this group in Toronto in 1965 and, after some more changes in personnel and relocating to California, the group was renamed Steppenwolf. When Steppenwolf temporarily broke up on February 14, 1972, Edmonton and Steppenwolf organist Goldy McJohn formed the band ''Seven'' with singer Lance Gullickson and guitarist Robin Huff. After Seven, Edmonton and McJohn formed ''Manbeast'' with Rod Prince and Roy Cox of Bubble Puppy before Steppenwolf reconvened in 1974 for three albums before breaking up again in 1976.〔 Edmonton married former Steppenwolf bandmate Andy Chapin's widow in the 1980s.〔 Edmonton died in a car accident in Santa Ynez, California in 1993.〔 ==Studio albums== *Presenting Jack London & The Sparrows 1965 Capitol Records *Steppenwolf 1968 U.S. #6 U.K. #59 ''Gold'' Dunhill Records *The Second 1968 U.S. #3 ''Gold'' Dunhill Records *John Kay & The Sparrow 1969 Capitol Records *At Your Birthday Party 1969 U.S. #7 ''Gold'' Dunhill Records *Monster 1969 U.S. #17 U.K. #43 ''Gold'' Dunhill Records *7 1970 U.S. #19 ''Gold'' Dunhill Records *For Ladies Only 1971 U.S. #54 Dunhill Records *Slow Flux 1974 U.S. #47 Mums Records *Hour of the Wolf 1975 U.S. #155 Epic Records *Skullduggery 1976 Epic Records 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Jerry Edmonton」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
