Doctor Father was a recording alias utilized by Eric Stewart, Kevin Godley, and Lol Creme for the release of the single Umbopo b/w Roll On in the summer of 1970. The three had previously enjoyed a number two U.K. hit with Neanderthal Man under the alias Hotlegs, and had decided to do a rewrite of There Ain't No Umbopo, a number that they had previously provided to the production team of Jerry Kasanetz and Jeff Katz as part of a songwriting/production contract (with the release credited to Crazy Elephant). The record failed to repeat the success of the Hotlegs release -- despite Radio Northsea picking up the single for heavy airplay, and despite the fact that it was the work of the same people from beginning to end who had a hit with Neanderthal Man -- and Doctor Father disappeared. ~ Bruce Eder, Rovi
