Rockets

Rockets were a French space rock band that formed in Paris in 1974 and relocated in Italy in 1978.Some of the former members had played together since 1970 in a local band called Crystal.In their most successful era (1977–1982) the line-up comprised vocalist Christian Le Bartz, bassist and vocalist "Little" Gérard L'Her, guitarist and keyboardist Alain Maratrat, drummer and percussionist Alain Groetzinger, and keyboardist Fabrice Quagliotti.The band went through a number of name changes, being known as the Rocket Men and Rok-Etz, among others.In the year 2000, Fabrice Quagliotti decided to reform the band (initially with the name Rockets N.D.P.), but with a totally different line-up.This brought to an anomalous situation, as far as none of the former members agreed to hold a reunion.In fact, the last former member to leave the band was Alain Maratrat, in 1992.
