Chicken Shack are a British blues band, founded in the mid-1960s by Stan Webb (guitar and vocals), Andy Silvester (bass guitar), and Alan Morley (drums), who were later joined by Christine Perfect (McVie) (vocals and keyboards) in 1968. Chicken Shack has performed with various line-ups, Stan Webb being the only constant member. Stan still maintains that they are a Blues/Rock band as shown on their album Imagination Lady. They made their first UK appearance at the 1967 … mehrNational Jazz and Blues Festival, Windsor and signed to Mike Vernon's Blue Horizon record label in the same year releasing Forty Blue Fingers, Freshly Packed and Ready to Serve in early 1968.

They had two minor hits with "I'd Rather Go Blind" and "Tears In The Wind", after which Perfect left the band in 1969 when she married John McVie of Fleetwood Mac. She was replaced by Paul Raymond from Plastic Penny weniger
