Bob Henrit


Robert John "Bob" Henrit (born 2 May 1944, in Broxbourne, Hertfordshire, England) is an English drummer who has been a member of several musical groups, including Buster Meikle & The Daybreakers, Unit 4 + 2, The Roulettes, Argent and The Kinks.

Bob Henrit was originally the drummer with Buster Meikle & The Day Breakers, together with Russ Ballard on guitar and Roy Ballard, Russ's older brother, on piano. He then enjoyed initial success as a member of The Roulettes (1962–1967), who, in addition to a recording career of their own, backed the popular music singer, Adam Faith, on tour and on record. After the demise of the Roulettes, Henrit briefly (1968) worked with Unit 4 + 2, an association which went back to his session drumming on their biggest hit, "Concrete and Clay" (1965).

In late 1968, Henrit teamed up with Russ Ballard, Jim Rodford and Rod Argent to form Argent, and remained with them until the band ended in 1976. After a brief spell with Rodford and John Verity as Phoenix, Henrit's post-Argent career included work with a number of artists, including Charlie, after their 1978 tour opening for The Kinks, and Ian Matthews.
