Graham Bond, originally a jazz saxophonist who also played in Alexis Korner's band and the Don Rendell Quintet, was a pioneer in many ways; perhaps the first to use the famous Hammond organ and Leslie speaker combination, and certainly one of the founding fathers of British rhythm and blues. Although highly influential to other R&B and mod bands of the time, The Graham Bond Organization had little commercial success back then. The band, who featured also Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce (both to form Cream with Eric Clapton just one year later), recorded this LP at a time when albums were considered just like an extra for the fan; today highly collectable, it is regarded as a milestone of the early British rhythm and blues scene and a must for any lover of Mod sounds.

"Strings and brass, guitars, mandolins, drums and flutes came forth until the room was like the opening night of the Proms. Graham operated the Melltron and Hammond organs, and occasionally played alto sax, whilst 'Ginger' Baker propelled the band with his explosive drumming. Dick Heckstall-Smith provided wailing tenor and baritone sax-noises and Jack Bruce played bass guitar and harmonica. I listened for several hours to sounds ranging from extrovert Rhythm and Blues to cool blues; from ravers to ballads; to a highly individualistic style of music which left me speechless. I left waving a proverbial but large banner for The Graham Bond Organization." --Vicki Wickham, from liner notes. Cover design by Ginger Baker.
