| HazzeSwede (Vinyl Land) | Posted: Dec 24, 2010 - 08:49 Boy..some snappy fingers at work here ! Not on this LP..I believe, but he did an awesome version of "Season of the Witch" ! |

| run4more (The cave) | Posted: Oct 21, 2010 - 23:50 "Compared to What" would be a nice add... turn a few heads and not have to listen to the Stevie Winwood comparisons... also does a very good "Inner City Blues" which, being the first version of that song I heard, is still my favorite. Reason for edit: I like Stevie Winwood and didn't mean to imply anything—I just think that Brian needs to be recognized for his own unique and much less-known style. |

| CamLwalk (Albany NY) | Posted: Jun 16, 2010 - 10:54 Neat. Never heard this. |
| Bluesgrrl (New Orleans) | Posted: Jun 16, 2010 - 10:54 Takes me back to high school jazz band attempting to play like him. Ahhhhhh   |
| gratefulgator (San Francisco CA) | Posted: Jun 16, 2010 - 10:54 Don't think I've heard this before - and it's pretty cool. Not quite sure how I feel about the vocals, but I do dig the piano. |
| George_Tirebiter (Phoenix) | Posted: Jun 16, 2010 - 10:50 Somewhere in my vinyl collection lies this gem. Thanks for reminding me to go dig through that stuff from time to time! |
| n4ku (Lex Vegas) | Posted: Apr 13, 2010 - 21:39 The release date for this was 1972, Bill. And thanks for adding it to the playlist. I know it is not to everyone's taste, but those of us who like it, really like it. Ali and I got to see Brian Auger at a local club a couple of years ago. For $5,! When shows in other nearby cities were $20 a ticket. Best show I have seen in years. Wow. He is still amazing on that B3. |

| Strada4Ever (Colombia) | Posted: Feb 09, 2010 - 17:45 Me gusta... aunque es demasiado disonante, logra cierta armonia.  |

| jagdriver (Tunin' in from the aptly-named Grass Valley, CA) | Posted: Jun 02, 2009 - 11:31 ...used to hear a lot of Brian and Julie on this hear (sic) little station that glowed in the dark... |
| YKV (Moscow, Russia) | Posted: Jun 02, 2009 - 11:31 Succinct jazzy undercurrents. A bit of a drag but that sinks in fine for me. Cool! Thanks! |

That's actually a difficult impression to achieve on a well worn tune like this. |
| DigitalJer (Edmonton, Alberta, Canada) | Posted: Jul 21, 2008 - 12:25 wow that was a really sophisticated sounding piece |
| BobbyCat (Oslo) | Posted: Jun 19, 2008 - 23:37 Wow, I saw him live when I was 16 (that was in 1969 I think!). Long long time ago ... That was "Brian Auger and the Trinity" with Julie Driscoll if I remember correctly. Apparently he's still crazy on his keyboard, but it doesn't quite sound OK today. |
| AliGator (Hiding from the Wedding-Industrial Complex) | Posted: Jun 19, 2008 - 23:28 That was a cool segue from Buzzin' Fly. |

Brian Auger is still touring. His daughter and son are in his band now. The daughter sings, the son on the drums. Saw them at a local music club last summer. Great show. |

sounds out of tune 
but Im not gonna rate it because it might grow on me I had the same impression. You get the feeling that not everybody is playing in the same key. Can't say I'm anxious to hear it again, even though I do dig extended jam music, especially from the 1970 timeframe (where I imagine this is from). |

Ah yes, the late Long John Baldry, who gave Elton John half of his stage name. Great stuff. |
