Founded by Tim Booth and Ivan Pawle in Dublin in 1967, Humphrey Weightman (guitar) played with them for their first show, in October 1967. Brian Trench (keyboards, vocals) played shows through 1968 until multi-instrumentalist Tim Goulding joined. Caroline "Linus (15)" Greville (percussion/vocals) was a member 1968-69. Gary Moore often augmented the band live on various instruments 1968-69, and also played lead guitar on the second album, in 1970. Drummer Neil Hopwood joined in 1970. Goulding left in early 1971, replaced by Gay Woods and Terry Woods for a 6-week European tour, after which the group dissolved.
Tim Booth led a new lineup through 1973. All other reunion lineups have have included Tim Booth (2), Tim Goulding, Ivan Pawle, and - since 1980 - Joe Thoma, sometimes augmented by other players as well.
Bob Watkins, the drummer and percussionist, first had drumming lessons at the age of eleven, and subsequently played all styles of music from symphonic orchestral music to the theatre pit-band and Pop. Some of the main influences on his playing have been the Big Band Jazz sound of Buddy Rich and in Pop the drumming of Bobby Colomby. Between 1967 and 1970 he was at University where he graduated with an Honours degree in Geography. It was there, whilst taking part in University musico-dramatic productions that he met the other musicians who were to form Dr. Z. in
1969. Since leaving university Bob Watkins (apart from playing with Dr. Z.) has devoted a year to developing and improving his already highly proficient drumming technique, an example of which appears in the drum-cadenza in the title track of the L. P. - "Spiritus Manes et Umbra"
The last member of Dr Z. is Bob Watson, one time mortuary attendant, computer operator and plumbers mate. Rob, has an Honours degree in Chemistry and is also a fully qualified scientific librarian. Increasingly during the past two years since joining Dr. Z. he has exchanged the quiet of the reading room for the excitement and concentration of the stage and recording studios. Rob, who can play lead and piano when required, provides the inventive and controlled bass which underpins the structural drumming and keyboard playing in the sound of Dr. Z.
