Be Bop Deluxe
Be Bop Deluxe was a British rock band led by singer, guitarist, and songwriter Bill Nelson.

Their music showcased Bill Nelson's exceptional guitar work and imaginative songwriting, often mixing sci-fi themes with romantic and philosophical lyrics.
The band released a series of critically acclaimed albums between 1974 and 1978, including Axe Victim, Futurama, Sunburst Finish, and Modern Music.
