Parker had played keyboards, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, and a number of other instruments from an early age, and entered the music industry as a session musician by the 1960s.[2] In the intervening time, he associated with a number of groups, including The Mark Leeman 5, Jimmy James and the Vagabonds, and Eric Burdon with the New Animals.[3][1]Parker formed Apollo 100 in the latter part of 1971 with fellow session musicians drummer Clem Cattini, guitarist Vic Flick, guitarist Zed Jenkins, percussionist Jim Lawless, and bassist Brian Odgers.[1] In December 1971, they released their first single, “Joy”, an electrified arrangement by Clive Scott of Bach’s “Jesu, Joy of Man’s Desiring”.[1][4] The single rose to number 6 on the Billboard Hot 100 in the US. None of their subsequent efforts were as successful, and they broke up in 1973.[1]Parker went on to form the New London Chorale.Soundtrack appearances[edit]Apollo 100’s first single “Joy”, released from their premiere album Joy, has subsequently been featured in the soundtracks of the films Boogie Nights,[5]One Day in September,[4] and The 40-Year-Old Virgin,[6] as well as the television series The Man Who Fell to Earth.[7] While not featured in the Battle of the Sexes soundtrack, the song was played during a scene in the movie and was cited in the end credits.[8]The song Mendelssohn’s 4th appears in Gaslit S1E4 as the backing track of a montage.Charting discography[edit]Studio albums[edit]Compilation albums[edit]Singles[edit]References[edit]^ a b c d e Larkin, Colin (1992).
