This early- to mid-'60s British Invasion/soul band had the distinction of being the first group to which Robert Fripp belonged. Future King Crimson alumnus Gordon Haskell was also a member of this largely forgotten ensemble, which backed various American soul singers who toured England in 1964 and cut one single, "Each Little Falling Tear" b/w "And I Do Now," for EMI-Columbia in 1965, and had one subsequent release on the Planet label. In 1980, Fripp revived the name the League of Gentlemen in association with a totally different ensemble. Following his return to full-time music-making after the collapse of King Crimson in 1974, he'd left the music business for three years.
