There are several bands called Chimera: 1) The oldest is a UK Acid Folk/Baroque Psychedelia group which recorded a self-titled album in 1969-70. Chimera were formed in the late 1960's by West Country girls Francesca Garnett and Lisa Bankoff. The line up of musicians supporting the girls often changed and among them featured artists such as Mal Luker (the Smoke), Bob Weston (Fleetwood Mac), Nick Mason/Rick Wright (the Pink Floyd) and Wil Malone (Orange Bicycle & later arranger for The Verve, Simple Minds, Massive Attack etc).
