Mud were a British glam rock band formed in 1968, best remembered for their single Tiger Feet which was 1974's UK best seller. Mud consisted of vocalist Les Gray, who died of throat cancer on 21 February, 2004, drummer Dave Mount, bass guitarist Ray Stiles and lead guitarist Rob Davis. They first appeared on the Basil Brush show on British TV and toured as support for Jack Jones. At the peak of their career they also enjoyed British No. 1 singles with Lonely This Christmas (1974), an affectionate Elvis Presley spoof, and Oh Boy (1975), the old Buddy Holly hit. They split in 1977, but Gray later toured with a new line-up, Les Gray's Mud, while Stiles joined the Hollies, and Davis co-wrote several dance hits for artists such as Kylie Minogue..
