How about an album featuring Ginger Baker, Jack Bruce, John McLaughlin, Dick Heckstall-Smith AND Jon Hiseman?! And, oh yeah, Graham Bond, too-much like John Mayalls various groups, Bonds bands, as proving grounds for soon-to-be superstars. often overshadowed the man at the center of them. For example, this record, though it came out in 1970, features Bruce, Baker and McLaughlin playing fairly straight-ahead jazz on three tracks recorded live at Klooks Kleek in 1963, a far cry from the heavy blues-rock and fusion that would later make them famous. The rest of the album is composed of 1966 tracks that mark the only recordings made by Bond with Heckstall-Smith and Hiseman before they left to form Colosseum (tellingly, the first track on their new bands debut album was a cover of Bonds Walkin in the Park, which appears here). These later tracks boast that uniquely Bond-ian mixture of R&B, jazz, blues and rock, and rank among his finest recordings. Includes Green Onions; Springtime in the City; Cant Stand It; The Grass Is Greener; Doxy; Only Sixteen; Last Night; Long Legged Baby; Walkin in the Park; Its Not Goodbye; Neighbour Neighbour, and Ho Ho Country Kicking Blues. The complete double-album on one CD, with new notes featuring quotes from Jon Hiseman."
