Egg (1): An early British progressive rock band.
Egg (2): An Electronic artist featuring Mr. White and Mr. Yolk. This duo based in Montreal (Canada) is formed by Guillaume Coutu Dumont and Julien Roy… (see more below)
Egg (3): Pop-rock band from the late 80’s featuring Chris Ballew (The Presidents Of The United States Of America) and Phil Franklin. Other members include Dale Peyser & Llyod Dyson.
Egg (4): See The Egg.
EGG (5): A noisecore project from California (myspace.com/eggology).
Egg (6): Project of two female musicians from Groningen, Netherlands.
1. Egg, The Canterbury band that released only three organ-prominent albums! After guitarist Steve Hillage left the band Uriel (also known as Arzachel), the other members, keyboardist Dave Stewart (organ, piano and tone generator) , bassist Mont Campbell (also organ, piano and French Horn), and drummer Clive Brooks reformed themselves as a trio. They released a pair of eccentric, complex, mostly-instrumental albums in 1969 (Egg) and 1970 (The Polite Force) before splitting up. Stewart joined Hatfield & The North at that time, and Egg reformed briefly to record one more album, The Civil Surface, in 1974. Their music is very structured and composed, with classical pieces Johann Sebastian Bach and some light jazzy influences.
2. Julien Roy is known for his work behind the renown artistic collective Artificiel and has releases on the Oral and PeP labels.

The Polite Force has to be their best. The Civil Surface is good, but like Dirk Campbell says, the mixing is terrible on that album.

The other egg-related band is called THE Egg. This is, simply, Egg, and it's a fucking great band. Love how one of their songs was used for opening the Prog Rock Britannia documentary.
