The Creation was a British rock band formed in 1966, known for their innovative blend of pop art, mod, and psychedelic rock styles. Their unique sound was largely attributed to guitarist Eddie Phillips, who pioneered the use of a violin bow on guitar, predating Jimmy Page of Led Zeppelin. Their most renowned single, "Making Time", showcases this distinctive playing style. Despite a relatively short career, The Creation was influential in the UK rock scene and continues to enjoy a cult following, as their music has been covered by various artists including The Sex Pistols and Primal Scream.
