All of The Shadow KnowsRoger Chapman
Roger Chapman is an English rock vocalist born in Leicester in 1942, best known for fronting the British progressive rock band Family and the rock and R&B outfit Streetwalkers in the 1970s. His voice, a raw, vibrato-heavy instrument with influences from Little Richard and Ray Charles, made him a cult figure on the British rock scene. After going solo in the late 1970s, he built a particularly devoted following in Germany, where he based much of his career for two decades.
