Back Street Crawler were an English rock band formed in 1975 by ex-Free guitarist Paul Kossoff.[1] They were signed to Atlantic Records (due to courtesy of Ahmet Ertegün) in 1975.[1] The band took the name from Kossoff's solo album, Back Street Crawler.[1] Terry Wilson, Mike Montgomery and Tony Braunagel had played together in the short-lived Bloontz, whose only album was released in 1973 and included versions of the Mike Montgomery songs, "Jason Blue" and "Long Way Down", both of which featured on Back Street Crawler's album The Band Plays On.
