Background notes
Archive material and source history
George Thorogood formed the Destroyers in 1973 in Wilmington, Delaware. Their second album, 'Move It On Over,' gave them a radio hit and pushed them toward a wider audience. The band's sound was straightforward blues-rock, built around Thorogood's slide guitar and a steady, driving rhythm section.
Songs like 'Bad To The Bone' and 'One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer' became staples of classic rock radio. Their live shows were known for being loud and direct, focusing on the groove rather than flashy technique. They kept a fairly consistent lineup for years, with Jeff Simon on drums and Bill Blough on bass.
They released albums steadily through the '70s and '80s, including 'Bad to the Bone' in 1982. The music didn't change much in style, which suited their fans just fine. They were a bar band that managed to fill arenas, sticking to a simple formula of blues covers and originals that sounded like they came from a juke joint.
