BRIAN AUGER, JULIE DRISCOLL AND THE TRINITY

Sixties pop diva-turned-avant jazz singer Julie Driscoll was born June 8, 1947 in London. 

As a teen she oversaw the Yardbirds' fan club, and it was the group's manager and producer 

Giorgio Gomelsky who encouraged her to begin a performing career of her own.

 In 1963 she issued her debut pop single "Take Me by the Hand," two years later 

joining the short-lived R&B combo Steampacket alongside Rod Stewart, Long John Baldry 

and Brian Auger, a highly respected jazz rock organist. 

After Steampacket dissolved, Driscoll signed on with the Brian Auger & Trinity

  grading

RECORD  EX but VG(+) on A4, but (please, read above description)

SLEEVE STRONG VG+ but (please, see pictures and read above description)

From the outgrowth of Steampacket, a band that included not only Brian Auger 

and Julie Driscoll, but also a young Rod Stewart, came Auger and Driscoll's collective 

effort that produced two albums. When Driscoll left in 1969 to pursue a solo career, 

Auger, drummer Clive Thacker, and bassist Dave Ambrose continued 

as Brian Auger & the Trinity. Open has been unfairly characterized as a kind 

of groove jazz rip, one that combines Wes Montgomery, Jimmy McGriff, 

and the rock sensibilities of the psychedelic era. Whatever. 

There are many tracks here, from deep grooved funky jazz 

to lilting ballads and greasy blues numbers and the skronky 

exotica number "Goodbye Jungle Telegraph."...(AllMusic)
