The Running Man

Emerging Indie Rock Group

However, there was a progressive rock band named Running Man that formed in the early 1970s. They were known for their self-titled album "The Running Man," which was released in 1972. The band was formed by Ray Russell, known for his guitar work and who later became a session musician and composer for film and television. The album they produced is characterized by its blend of jazz, rock, and classical influences, typical of the progressive rock genre during that era. Despite the potential of their music, Running Man did not achieve significant commercial success and remained a lesser-known act within the progressive rock scene. The band's career was short-lived, and they disbanded not long after their debut release.
