Keats were a short-lived British rock band, which produced one eponymous album in 1984. The group/album was an Alan Parsons Project offshoot and was named after the Keats restaurant in Hampstead which was a favourite of Eric Woolfson. Its members were Colin Blunstone (vocals), Ian Bairnson (guitars), Pete Bardens (keyboards), David Paton (bass and backing vocals) and Stuart Elliott (drums and percussion). Richard Cottle also provided additional keyboard parts, as well as saxophone and synthesizers.
