Streetwalkers were an English rock band formed in late 1973 by two former members of rock band Family, vocalist Roger Chapman and guitarist John "Charlie" Whitney. They were a five piece band which evolved from the Chapman Whitney Band.
The band was managed by Michael Alphandary and Harvey Goldsmith[1] and were best known for their live performances and their album Red Card (1976).
The band's potential was commented on by former Sounds magazine staff writer and later successful publicist Barbara Charone who stated that “Roger Chapman, Charlie Whitney, and Bobby Tench have been one step away from the big time for so long now that it makes you wonder what the problem is, Everyone knows Family should have made it, that Chapman/Whitney should have made it,and that now Streetwalkers should make it. They certainly deserve to", after she saw them performing in support of The Who in 1976.[2]
By 1977 the possibility of becoming more important in UK rock history was diminished by changing musical taste, due to the growing influence of punk rock and new wave music on European culture. The band had successes in the United States and Europe, particularly Germany.[3]
