I realised there were two UK bands called Gun - one from the late 60s headed by Adrian Gurvitz, and one who had a hit in the 90s with a cover of Word Up. To my delight, I was able to trace from one band to the other via their band members. It goes as follows:
Gun (1968-69)
Adrian Gurvitz (guitar, vocals)
Three Man Army
Mike Kellie (drums)
Spooky Tooth
Alan Spenner (bass)
Kokomo
Mel Collins (sax)
Janie Jones & The Lash
Joe Strummer (guitar, vocals)
Joe Strummer And The Mescaleros
Scott Shields (bass, drums)
Gun (1987-97)
Furthermore, the bands Spooky Tooth and The Lash both had members called Mick Jones - the former who led Foreigner, and the latter of The Clash.

Great! As you can see on the homepage we're still working on the new site, which should include the functionality to link any band or artist in the database to another.
