THE HOOK
Formed in Los Angeles, California, USA, in 1967 by former Leaves guitarist Bobby Arlin,
Hook also consisted of Buddy Sklar (bass) and Craig Boyd (drums). Will Grab You showed
little of the folk/rock style Arlin’s previous group was noted for, offering instead power-trio heavy rock.
The departure of Boyd in 1968 prompted a re-think which saw former Grass Roots
keyboard player Danny Provisor and new drummer Dale Loyola drafted into the line-up.
Hook offered a more polished style but, as neither release was a commercial success,
Arlin folded the band the following year. The first album is hard rock with psychedelic undertones,
the second is the more structured of the two - both are worth investigating,
and now minor collectors' items. Lee "Buddy" Sklar became a very renowned session man
and played with Jackson Browne, James Taylor and almost every Californian artist.
Bobby Arlin later reappeared in 1973 with Wonderlick
