Average White Band Biography
One of the most influential and highly regarded funk groups of the 1970s, the Average White Band was formed by a bunch of R&B enthusiasts from Scotland. Their 1974 album AWB featured their signature song--the slinky, horn-driven instrumental "Pick up the Pieces," which shot to Number One and became a '70s radio staple. The group was inactive for most of the '80s, but reunited in 1989, recording and touring extensively.
