Julie Driscol, Brian Auger and The Trinity 7" Take Me To The Water/ Indian Ropeman Marmalade 598018 EX+ to Mint This is a monster rare & in demand KILLER mod hammond club dancer very rarely seen, especially in such beautifull condition. 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 organist Brian Auger. After Steampacket dissolved, Driscoll signed on with the Brian Auger Trinity, scoring a Top Five UK hit in 1968 with their rendition of Bob Dylan's "This Wheel's on Fire." Dubbed "The Face" by the British music press, Driscoll's striking looks and coolly sophisticated vocals earned her flavor of the month status, and she soon left Auger for a solo career. Her debut solo album 1969 heralded a significant shift away from pop, however, enlisting members of the Soft Machine and Blossom Toes to pursue a progressive jazz direction. (psyche, freakbeat, sixties beat, 60's, psychedelic breaks, breakbeats) should appeal to fans of the Small Faces, Spencer Davis Group, Shocking Blue etc Good Luck & Happy Bidding! ...sorry about the dodgy pic ;o)
