I have been looking for this piece on YouTube for a while...Situation off of the 1970 Jeff Beck Group album, Rough And Ready.
This was a pretty cool band and reflected Becks first attempts at fusing Jazz and Rock.
After this band ended in 1972, Beck was ready for the full blown Jazz/Rock Fusion of Wired and Blow by Blow.

Bobby Tench was the vocalist, Max Middleton: keyboards, Clive Chaman: bass, Cozy Powell: drums and of course, Beck on guitar. I hadn't heard this for ages.
Thanks for that Microdot,
ReplyDeleteCozy Powell? That rings a bell with Richie Blackmore's Rainbow along the line somewhere. I recall that from the school days of yore.
This song sounds so familiar, but I just can't place it. Maybe I was distracted by the resemblance of Max with Tony Orlando. Great stuff.

Max Middleton had a great career as a jazz and rock musician. He was one of the ultimate "session men".
ReplyDeleteCozy Powell? yes, rainbow, but black sabbath and many others. again an ultimate session player. I see that he is still active, playing with Brian May who according to a very strange web site, may or may not be the anti christ....he could be, we belong to the same union branch....
