| Comments: | Congratulations Todd on eleven wonderful years of giving us this superb web site. Unicorn are my most favorite band of all time, and they will always remain so. Their music is as fresh sounding today as the day it was first recorded. I hope many many more people will have the good fortune to come upon this web site. Unicorn you continue to rock my world!

| Comments: | Big hugs Sue - we exchanged emails today and yours reminded me that Pete would have been 62 today.
Also, Pat Martin sent me a link to a fat kid playing "Mary Had A Little Lamb" on bass. I returned the compliment by sending him a link to a Japanese transvestite playing superb 8-string bass in a skirt. Pete - I hope you're watching all this with that big smile on your face! Reqiescat in Pace Peter Perryer. |

| Comments: | I stumbled across your website, which triggered what few brain cells I have left.
It all makes for interesting reading, and I hope everybody is alive and kicking. I always remember "Tub" finding it difficult to climb five sets of stairs to reach my office. I expect I would also struggle as I approach my 67th birthday. If you remember me, please make contact, lots to talk about. |

| Comments: | Hi
I'm Ricky Hopper's step-daughter. I'm sorry to give you the news that he passed away a couple of years ago, but you may know this already. I didn't realise everyone called him Ricky back then, it's amazing to see his name in so many places online. Reading up about this band and being transported back to a time before I existed has brought me a bit closer to him which I'm truly thankful for. I hope you are all well, love, Dee |

I dicovered two Unicorn albums there that I really enjoyed listening to a long time ago. I picked them out from the shelf and told him to listen to them and I´ll hope that he will enjoy the music as much as I did. I´ll will tell you later about what he thought about the music. A really enjoyable site this. |

| Comments: | Hey you lot out there, how are you doing? I'm enjoying Keith Richards book "life" at the moment. They were so committed to their art, it's no wonder they were so big. Unicorn were serious but we were more about being ordinary lads and enjoying music and life.
God bless Sue!!! If it gets hard my advice- sit down and listen to the man singing "Dont Ever Give Up Trying"(if you've got it that is). When we were playing darts and it wasn't going so well Pete used to say "It's a good game to win". Why don't I just let him have the last word? Ken |

| Comments: | Hi everyone, I just wanted to say I had wanted to leave something on the web site, as it's now six years since we lost the most wonderful singer, brother, friend, hero! That was a few days ago on the 6th. Unfortunately the huge fire in Bastrop started on the 4th. September and I had to flee our home of twenty three years, without hardly a thing to my name. Our house burnt down to the ground, along with all it's contents, on the anniversary of Pete's passing. I have lost all my Unicorn cds. albums, cds. of Pete's songs he wrote and most special of all, his guitar and bible. I shall find a new home, but I can never replace all the things that were most precious to me. I should be feeling so glad that Jake and I are alive, but at this point in time I just feel so sad that I have lost all the photos, films and anything else I ever had related to my wonderful brother Pete. I miss you even more every Pete and I wonder when the Uphill Struggle will end! For sure I will never Give up Trying. I love you Pete, love Sister Sue |

| Comments: | To advise, one more upload to You Tube, the wonderful track 'Don't Ever Give Up Trying'. Can I just thank Pat for his kindness over the past 10 days in making it possible to upload a better quality sound for the videos. This website is and always will be my favourite and remember if like me, you sometimes feel a bit downhearted, listen to the words of Ken Baker and don't ever give up trying even if some days it seems uphill all the way. Best wishes, Steve. |

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pz9sfjrFaX4 That is me done now, except for any video requests via Pat. Very grateful to Pat for your kind assistance in helping me share some of the finest music ever to come out of the 70's. This website is and always will be my favourite and hope through our latest efforts some new fans might be found. Best Wishes to all, Steve :-) |

| Comments: | Having a wonderful bank holiday playing my Unicorn tapes, CD's and mp3's. Thanks to Pat for allowing me to use some of your photos for the 3 videos done this weekend. You can now find 'Is That A Shame' 'Don't Want To Come Home Alone' and 'Rainy Season' all uploaded on my 2 You Tube channels. That makes 8 in total and look forward to perhaps some future involvement in promoting the great Unicorn. |

| Comments: | Just rediscovered Unicorn after 36 years. Oh the songs,so fantastic. They should have been huge and would have been if it wasn't for the then powerful music journalist's who tried to push punk rock down our throats. I'm sorry to learn that Pete Perryer had passed on. May the positive vibes of his singing continue, they will in my house until I go to the same place. Power to Unicorn. |

I think it was with Bonnie Raitt and Jackson brown maybe. You guys hit a home run that night in Texas. I was the Music Director for the local FM station that sponsored the show and we'd been playing your album for several months before the show.. I also did a taped interview the next day with Ken and Pete. It's just wonderful to find you guys... |

| Comments: | "Unicorn" were a superb band who got nowhere ; The story of many other great Bands ("Patto" in particular.)
I never got to see them live for a variety of arcane reasons but thought them superb from the continuous playing of the 3 albums. I recently heard " Holland" on BBC at some ridiculous hour on the radio, brought out the 3 albums and have started playing them again to my wife's chagrin and to my son's delight! Not a duff track in sight/hearing and many ("He's got pride;" The Night;" "Disco Dancer") worthy of multiple playing and appreciation. I am 65 with GOOD HEARING(!) and still appreciate good records and bands. |

I now live in the Oriental Republic of Uruguay and was hugely disappointed to find that the various commercial download sites refuse to download music to the ROU... perhaps the MAN wishes to encourage bit torrenting? |

| Comments: | Call it nostalgia or whatever, but I recently googled Unicorn and came up with this site. I used to be the bass player/vocalist in the Elite, with Kevin Smith and Chris Harding. There's even a photo of us as 'The Late/Elite Package 1966' - I'm the nerd on right next to Pat Martin. I lost touch with everyone around '67 or '68.
I felt a real lump in my throat when I heard that Pete had passed away. I know it's more than 40 years since I saw him but it was still very sad. I still play and listen to music so I guess it never leaves you. I even own a couple of Unicorn albums - on vinyl of course! It seems that the Unicorn legend still lives on so congratulations to you all on your legacy. Best regards, Alan |

| Comments: | I was just thinking about this site this morning wondering if it was about 8 years old and low and behold it just turned 9. Time flies. Nearly a decade of having this site and forum for all things Unicorn - Todd you've done a great job. I remember when Todd and I had a brief conversation one day about how there needs to be a Unicorn web site. The next day he called me and sent me the link and asked what I thought! I was duly impressed and still am.
I spent the morning today listening to Unicorn tracks, they never lose their freshness. Ever. I listen to Unicorn more than any other artist. The artistry astounds me more the more I listen. Thanks again Todd and thanks to Pete, Pat, Ken, and all the others that were involved in getting this music recorded in the first place....and especially Pat for keeping the Unicorn archived material safe and sound throughout the decades so that we were all able to benefit in recent years with the releases of the Shed Sessions, The Late acetates, The Anthology, and other goodies... Little did I know ten years ago how much great Unicorn music had yet make it to my ears.... So here's to the 1st 9 years! Let's see what we can accomplish in the next 9! ...perhaps a Unicorn convention! |

On a different note, I just want to warn all of my friends, that if you get an email saying you have an email from me on Badoo! Please do not respond! This is some sort of scam, and I have not written to anyone. I also got an email saying I had a message from a friend and when I tried to open the message, there wasn't one. I'm not sure what the scam is, but I know that many of my friends are getting these false messages. Thanks, Sue |

| Comments: | Well Last FM has 14 different artists with the name of Unicorn defined in their database (they run the gamut in styles but tracnce seems to be the most recurring genre). In any event, Last FM is linking the Swedish Unicorn to the Blue Pine Trees album; let's hope they don't send Unicorn's income to Sweden! |

| Comments: | Still remeber stuff about Pete every day,will never forget him.He came down my road on the Butchers bike (c.64) when he was briefly their delivery boy.The bike blew over in the wind and shot all the meat over the road,he picked up the bike,kicked it and then proceded to pick up the meat and throw it back into the basket on the bike.Pete and joints just didn't go together. |

I miss you more and more each day and am so thankful I have your beautiful voice to hear each day. Pete you were such a sweet, kind and loving brother and you always made me laugh. I am so lucky to have had you for a brother, friend and mentor. I love you so Pete and miss you so. Keep singing, love your sister Sue. |

| Comments: | I'm sad to announce the passing of Ricky Hopper.We first met him when he was a plugger at Transatlantic Records back in 1971.He loved Unicorn and our first single 'P.F.Sloane' and really put his heart into plugging it.One of his succeses was getting it played on Alan'Fluff'Freemans 'Pick Of The Pops' on prime time BBC Radio.Fluff even predicted Unicorn had a great future and I nearly bought that house I promised my Mum when I got famous.
Ricky left Transatlantic and we really noticed the difference.In 1972/3 he phoned me up to ask if Unicorn would play at his wedding for free,with the promise that there would be lots of famous people there and that we might benefit from it.We took that with a pinch of salt but figured we owed him a favour.There were several famous people there,one being David Gilmour who was just reaping the success of Dark Side Of The Moon.He had a jam with us at the end and asked me for a phone number.A few days later he phoned me up and offered us some free time in the studio he had just had installed in his Essex home.He went on to produce three albums for us and his manager became our manager too. Ricky was always talking about a young female singer songwriter who was the sister of a friend he went to Cambridge with.He asked David Gilmour to listen to her and David asked Pete Perryer and I to play on her first recording sessions in his home studio.That female singer songwriter was Kate Bush.David Gilmour is always credited with discovering Kate but it was Ricky Hopper. His funeral will be held at Haycombe Cemetary & Cremitorium,Whiteway Road,Bath.BA2 2RQ. on Thursday 25 June at Noon |

| Comments: | I just want to take this opportunity to thank the band for the album Blue Pine Trees. It is still at the top of my list of favorite albums after thirty five years and is simply the greatest country rock album of all time (too bad the world missed it)! You definitely are not forgotten. What are the chances we can get a reunion album from the band?? |

| Comments: | Ah, reading that comment from the last poster makes me happy. With each passing year the legacy of Unicorn will continue to grow and attract more and more fans. Unicorn are positioned to gain a lot of attention and credibility in the next decade, so long overdue. Seems rather silly for me to thank God for giving such a band to us, but that's how important their music has been to me and will certainly continue to be for the rest of my life!

| Comments: | I heard Uphill All the Way for the first time last year and I'm in love. The songs and arrangements are really deeply impressive. Don't Ever Give Up Trying is a really wonderful song.
I suppose it's worth noting that I was able to hear it in the first place by downloading it for free but am still gonna buy the real one... These things work out sometimes... Take care. |

| Comments: | Dancing in t’Street
Some of the more sedentary readers of this list might, like me, have seen in the new year from the sofa while watching the TV. Those doing this in Britain were probably watching the Jools Holland new year show. It is always the best bet. Some of the featured contemporary singers and bands are a bit perplexing but there is always the playing of the first class house band, the Rhythm and Blue Orchestra, to enjoy. The line up for the show always includes a veteran ‘legend’ act and this year it was Martha and the Vandellas. They gave us their biggest hits: Jimmy Mac, Heatwave and, just after midnight, Dancing in the Street. I wonder if I was the only one to mentally substitute the northern English locations of Accrington Stanley and Crewe for two of the American cities from Martha’s version. Pete invariably made this change when he sang the song in the days of the Late and Late Edition. (I particularly remember him doing so on a gig in Romford. The show had several bands of a similar status performing on a notably wide stage. It may also have been the occasion of a fan club coach trip organised by Mr Martin and there may have been a second show somewhere else that evening but I cannot now be sure.) It was a daft joke but a good one and remembering it gave me the first laugh of 2009. Happy New Year Norman |

I think of you all the time and have such fantastic memories of things we shared. You always could make me laugh so hard. It's been a hard year for me medically, but I know that you were keeping me safe through all the surgery and I thank you for being my guardian angel. I know it was you that helped me come through it all. I love you so much Pete, I just wish we could chat one more time. Keep smiling Pete, lots of love Your sweet sister Sue. |

I love the fact that someone enjoys the humour of a song like Lenny Dee(thanks Dave). I was speaking to Alec on the phone recently and we got talking about Bullseye Bill. That's another joke that passed for a song. Drop by again soon Ken. |

It was a wonderful suprise to see all the new guestbook entries since my last visit. Thanks to everyone who has visited & signed. I was lucky enough to meet Pete during my 2002 visit & hear the band play together for possibly the last time. Even the Pink Bear was there! I remember Pete as always smiling whenever I saw him. I have fond memories of an afternoon spent at Pete's apartment drinking tea & listening to music. It was clear to see why Pete is loved & missed by so many.  |

| Comments: | I only met Pete Perryer twice, once at a Pat Martin gig at the 'Three Lions' in Godalming and again at the first Unicorn Reunion. He was a completely open book, his smile and his faith radiated like a beacon. There was something about him that made me feel as though I'd known him for ages.
In a way, I had. When I was remastering the Shed Sessions I was listening to every detail of every track of 40+ songs over and over again. I knew I was listening to a master class in drumming, bass playing and song-writing, and a pretty stunning guitarist as well. One of the things I had to do was erase tape noise, burps, farts, laughter (well, nearly all the laughter), mic stands being kicked, raucous remarks - and Pete Perryer's hand-claps on the backing vocals overdub tracks. Pete REALLY enjoyed doing backing vocals - I guess he could savour singing without part of his brain having to do drums too. I erased several hundred of these whilst cleaning up the recordings, and I knew the sound of Pete's hand-claps. In fact, I knew what they looked like too, in my sound editing software. Pat invited me to the Three Lions gig and told me that Pete might turn up. There was quite a crowd and after the fourth number, in the middle of some enthusiastic applause, I heard THAT hand-clap. I 'homed in' on Pete and he laughed when I told him how I knew he'd arrived. He bought me a beer too, but that's not why I think he was one of the nicest people I've ever met, and one of the most talented. Rock on Pete, wherever you are. When I get 'there' too, will you show me how you got that groove in 'Sitting In Line'? I'll get you a beer. |

Always thinking about you and telling all those great stories about you.I'm still playing that bass and I've played with some real good drummers but none give me that buzz I always got playing with you.I wish I hadn't taken it for granted how fantastic a singer you were too,I just expected everyone to sing with so much feeling,boy did I get a shock.I'm so glad we've got the Unicorn CD's to listen to and remind us of how wonderful a drummer,singer and person you were.Who'd have thought that Wharf Lane,Send would provide such a good rhythm section ? maybe it was something to do with those throbbing diesel trucks going to and from Wintons yard. |

| Comments: | Well it's just a couple more hours to the 6th September and the day my world fell apart hearing the news from Ken that my wonderful hero of a brother Pete had died. I still just can't believe you are no longer here with us Pete, I listen to your beautiful voice and see your smiling face in my mind. I just miss you so very much, at times the pain is so hard to endure, but then I thank God that I have your voice forever to listen to and think how fortunate we all are to hear the wonderful music of Unicorn. Today I sat in my little wood and looked at the tree that Pete loved so much when he came to Texas, and I could feel you looking down and smiling. I love you so much Pete and miss you so! |

Still feels so bad about Pete not being here & what he could be singing - thank goodness we have him on recordings forever. We will always love you Pete - I hope he knows that We would also like to say how much we love 'Lenny Dee' on the Anthology & especially knowing the story behind the song !!& probably being there ! |

| Comments: | Hey Everyone,
I was listening to Unicorn last night on my evening commute out of the New York City concrete jungle. For some reason it was "Lenny Dee" and "The Sweeter Life" that I just could not stop playing over and over for the entire hour long journey. The latter is just such a beautiful tune in every way. It's so ..unicorn. "Lenny Dee" just cracks me up and I love the way that it's sung. The music is so serious and dark yet knowing the story behind the song I can't help but cracking up every time I hear it. "Their faces turned to me, twisted in agony!" ..... "No one even mentioned Lenny Deeeee!" Such great stuff. I could just see Ken (Ken, correct me if I'm wrong) being turned off by the bandwagon nature of group adulation and really imposing the music of Lenny Dee onto a crowd of hipsters. I know the feeling. I was often apt to insert a Carpenters tune in the midst of a set of party music when I used to DJ. But hey, I love the Carpenters so why not? You'd actually be surprised how well "Superstar" works in that situation! At least it forces people to pay attention! Anyway, I do thank God for the music of Unicorn. Listening now to The Late. Anyone reading this and remotely interested in Unicorn should get this new release. "Working Man" is a 60's CLASSIC. Best to All Reading! Dave |

| Comments: | Sue,
Are you Pete Perryer's sister?? I'm amazed 'bout the merging of true and perfect feelings of "brother and sister". I have found in many places, brothers and sisters competing between themselves.It's a process for most of us, and it can be pretty excruciating. By being vocal and supportive about Pete,everything you've said about him done nothing so much as emphasize how much you loved him. There is no cure for love lost, but what he left behind is his gift to you and to us. Bless you! Luis |

| Comments: | I first heard of Unicorn in 74/75 - my brother had seen them supporting someone, and had bought Blue Pine Trees. I went on to get Two Many Crooks and One More Tomorrow - I'm delighted to find from this site I can now upgrade my battered vinyl copies to CD!
I saw them live twice - as support to Dr Hook in 1975 at the then Hammersmith Odeon, and again in 1976 supporting the Groundhogs at the Marquee. On both those occasions it was Unicorn, not the headliners who I wanted to see. From time to time I've done web searches to try and find out more about Unicorn - until today this site has eluded me. Thanks to all who've been involved in putting it together. Unicorn for me are one of the "lost bands" of the 70s - so glad that their legacy has been captured on this site - so sad that Pete Perryer no longer with us. Thank you! |

I miss him so much, there's not a day goes by without me thinking of him. He lifted my spirits when they were at the lowest. He brought us all a friend so rare. Today another great voice has been lost, that of Lucianno Pavarotti. I think he will be in great company when he arrives in Heaven! I love you Pete, your sister Sue. |

| Comments: | Was listening to Unicorn on my iPod this morning on my bus ride into NYC on my way to work. Just shuffling thru tracks and thinking how amazing this band is. While listening, I had the idea that I (or someone) should write a book on the band. I think the story is a fascinating one and also a book would shed some attention on them and help people discover them. Then there is the reality of someone to publish and publicize the book which I am sure can be done if the right contacts were set in place. What do you all think? Would people read it? |

| Comments: | Hello there to all the Unicorn fans. I finally managed to put all my Unicorn cds onto my ipod. I put it on shuffle and every night I go to sleep listening to all the wonderful songs. I can't decide which is my favourite album, I have a love of them all, although the hymn, 'I'll believe in you 'is one of the most special to me. Can't wait to hear Ken's new songs. Had been hoping to come to England this year, but my health hasn't been co-operating with me. Maybe next year will be better. Best wishes to Ken, Pat and Jill, Shirley,Dave Di Sanzo, Todd, Jon and all the people that love Unicorn. Pete, I still miss you so very much, and I think about you every day. Just wish we had one more time to speak together, I feel so lost at times without you, you are forever in my heart. love Sue |

| Comments: | Changed my car at the weekend….and what was the first cd that entered the player?.........Unicorn of course (‘Best of’). However, I’m with you Dave, reckon ‘Too Many Crooks’ remains my favourite album of the 70s….but then also have a very soft spot for ‘Uphill All the Way’…aw but then just love some of the tracks on ‘Blue Pine Trees’ …aw, who started this!
Big HELLO to Todd and all fellow Unicorn fans… Keep listening and enjoy! Love Jillxx |

| Comments: | Listening to Blue Pine Trees right now. I haven't listened to it in a couple of months and man, does it sound great. Best album of the 70s??? Well, maybe not. That title might belong to Too Many Crooks.... Long Live The Corn. I am forever grateful for this music !!!! |

| Comments: | It was me that added the link to this site to the Lindisfarne one.It seems to have sparked a lot of interest, which I'm delighted with.I am currently reading the Kate Bush biography by Rob Jovanovic.In it Unicorn are mentioned, so I looked them up on the net following a link that my friend Michael had given on the Lindisfarne website after I'd asked about Unicorn.I'm going to buy an album by Unicorn as I liked the sound clips on here.Great website, and the games give a bit of fun to it.It's smashing to see a lot of new names on the Lindisfarne site since I have mentioned Unicorn, and no doubt there will be a few more names popping up on here too. |

| Comments: | I just stumbled upon this group from a discussion on the Lindisfarne (a group from Newcastle) forum. I'm 23 yr old from New Zealand and like the samples I've heard on this site, I'll have to buy an album one day. Thanks for keeping a website about this group it's great to have information like this around |

| Comments: | Thanks for your time and effort to create this great web site. I have been a fan since Blue Pine Trees released when I lived in Florida, and have looked for this music on CD for years. I never had the opportunity to see the band live, but WOW- what great sounds. Downloading it to my iPod will bring back many great memories, and I am amazed at how timeless the music remains. The history of the band was well written, and very interesting, and I wanted you to know that your efforts are well received in Dallas, Texas! Best wishes to the band, and to the web site administrator... Gregg |

| Comments: | Today was a hard day for me, it would have been Pete's Birthday and I just felt so sad all day. I would always phone him and sing Happy Birthday in a funny voice, and he would just crack up laughing. It doesn't seem to get any easier as yet to come to terms with your passing. Pete I love you so very much and wish I could have more time to be with you. You are forever in my heart and I think of you constantly. Your sister Sue misses you so very much. |

| Comments: | I was hooked the day I heard the Slow Dancing single playing in Listen Records store in Byres Road, Glasgow nearly 30 years ago. I was amazed cos I was into Floyd, Led Zeppelin etc and it was a heavy rock store. But there it was playing away in the background. I had'nt heard that style of music before and it was captivating. I play it nearly every day. I burned it to CD to preserve it. My album went walkabout during a house flit some years ago so I am going to avail myself of the CD's and reminisce........... |

| Comments: | How wonderful to read about the band! I bought all 3 albums, and while I lived in the North east I once lent them to a presenter on the new Metro radio, who played them on his Sunday afternoon show. By way of a "thank-you" he sent me two debut albums by artistes he described as "ones to watch out for". Joan Armatrading and Billy Joel, no less!
As well as enjoying the albums at home, I often play tracks on my Friday night Album Show on a Leeds hospital radio station. Francis |
