Greg Fitzpatrick, Sebastian Agnello, Danny Taylor, Hughie Leggat, and John Richardson were teenagers in The Lords Of London, who played to their peers on weekends. They released several singles in the mid-sixties scoring a Canadian hit with "Cornflakes And Ice Cream".

However, it failed to ignite the attention of Americans and the group began a slow evolution into progressive sounds and a new name -- Nucleus.

Through day-long rehearsals they would jam extended progressive rock treatments, many of which would be recorded in 1968; Bob Horne replaced Agnello on keyboards as the band headed into the studio for their first and only LP written entirely by Greg Fitzpatrick.

However, it took a year to get interest for the record, which was released by Chicago label Mainstream, and by the time it was released in 1969, the band had distanced themselves from it. And yet, the album became a cult favourite throughout the North American eastern seaboard, and its first single, "Communication", was played fervently despite its excessive length.

By 1970 Nucleus' free-form radical jam sessions had failed to make any significant in-roads and so, Taylor, Leggat and Horne hooked up with ex-Leather members Alex Machin and Paul Naumann to become A Foot In Coldwater.

Richardson and Fitzpatrick would head to California to pursue solo careers but Fitzpatrick would return to Toronto in the 1980's. The band members (excluding Richardson, who was still working as a studio engineer in California), reunited in 1991 for an audiophile gathering of the Canadian Wax Hounds to remenisce about the old days with Lords Of London and Nucleus.

Agnello has continued on for 30 years as a successful solo artist in his own right; Greg Fitzpatrick is living in Bay Roberts, NFLD; the remaining members have continued on with an updated version of A Foot In Coldwater.
