Biography:
Keith West (born 6 December 1943 in Dagenham, Essex, England as Keith Alan Hopkins) was the lead singer of Tomorrow, a 1960s psychedelic rock band. West composed most of the band's songs (duly credited to Keith Hopkins). Despite critical acclaim and support from DJ John Peel, who featured them on his "Perfumed Garden" Radio London show, the band was not a great financial success.
In 1964 West became lead singer of "In Crowd" a rock band from London, which was renamed to "Tomorrow" later.
