Additional notes:
(Admiral of the Fleet) Sir Cloudesley Shovell was a British naval officer during the late 17th/early 18th century. The band got the idea for the name from a house near a bar Johnny Gorilla and Louis Comfort-Wiggett used to frequent. This house was reputedly lived in by the mother of Cloudesley Shovell. The two thought it was a good name for a band and Johnny Gorilla liked the little homage the "Admiral Sir" provided to Sir Lord Baltimore.
