Formed by Dicky Tarrach, and mostly originating as ex-members of the pop group The Rattles, they started as the rock 'n' soul band Randy Pie & Family.
Many of the musicians in Randy Pie were also involved in the experimental rock albums of Achim Reichel. Bassist Manfred Thiers had come from the hard-rock progressive band Gash (3). Their debut album contained a wide-ranging collection of prog, blues and fusion tracks, whereas subsequent albums veered towards soul and funk.
