The Astro label was distributed by Cotillion and included in the Cotillion 9000
series. There was a single album issued on the Astro label, by a Houston-based rock
quintet named Blackwell. The members of the band were Glen Gibson (lead vocal),
Johnny Bundrick (keyboards), Jimmy Smith (guitar), Terry Wilson (bass), and Randy
DeHart (drums).
Johnny Bundrick, a.k.a. Rabbit, played with Paul Kossoff (as Kossoff-Kirke-Tetsu-
Rabbit) after Free's first split, then joined the newly regrouped Free (without Kossoff),
before playing again with (Kossoff's) Back Street Crawler/Crawler. There he teamed up
again with Terry Wilson, who had been involved, meanwhile, with Bloontz, another
Texas band.
