The Collectors

The Collectors

The Collectors was a rock band active in the 1960s. It debuted in Vancouver, British Columbia in 1961 as a house band (the C-FUN Classics) for CFUN radio, and renamed itself as "The Collectors" in 1966. The band featured Howie Vickers on lead vocals, Bill Henderson on lead guitar, lead vocals, and keyboards, Claire Lawrence on saxophone, flute, keyboards, harmonica, and vocals, Glenn Miller on bass and vocals, and Ross Turney on drums. In 1968, the group released its first self-titled album on the Warner Brothers label, and over the next two years also provided soundtrack music to three Canadian films.

Howie Vickers left the group in 1969, and the remaining members of the band reconstructed themselves as Chilliwack, with Bill Henderson taking over lead vocals.
