Formed in 1966 in St Louis, Missouri.

The Aerovons were a group from St. Louis, Missouri, USA who were based in the UK. When most of the group returned to Missouri, four members (including Phil Edholm) stayed in the UK and recorded at Abbey Road studios. They released two singles on Parlophone but actually recorded enough songs for an album. These were wiped when EMI discovered that there were only two members left in the group after Phil Edholm was kicked out and Mike Lombardo left. Fortunately demos survived of other tracks and these were issued in 2003.
