UK tour and car crash

In January & February 1973, Sharks embarked on a UK tour , playing clubs and universities. To promote the band, whilst touring, Chris Spedding customized his Pontiac Le Mans , fitting a shark fin on the roof and fibreglass teeth on the grille. On 19 February 1973, on the way back to London from a gig in Cleethorpes, the car skidded and hit a tree. Fraser suffered injuries to his wrist and, during recuperation, had second thoughts about the band.
