Tonto's Expanding Head Band
Tonto's Expanding Head Band was a British-American
electronic music duo consisting of
Malcolm Cecil and
Robert Margouleff. Despite releasing only two albums in the early 1970s, the duo were (and still remain) influential because of their session and production work for other musicians (most notably
Stevie Wonder), extensive commercial advertising work and the unique warmth and personality of their work.
