Stealers Wheel were a Scottish folk rock band formed in Paisley in 1972 by Joe Egan and Gerry Rafferty, two friends from their school days. Their self-titled debut that year, on A&M, carried the song that made their name, "Stuck in the Middle with You", a loping, handclapping shuffle with a sly, wry vocal and a groove that never breaks a sweat.
Around the two founders, Rod Coombs on drums, Luther Grosvenor on guitar, Paul Pilnick and Tony Williams all played in the band at one time or another. The band broke up in 1975, then got back together briefly in 2008.
