I've been looking for his stuff for years after hearing Emerson name checking him, but have only recently heard any of it and have been very impressed. Welcome to the rapidly expanding Don Shinn fan club Jean-MarieWink, which now has three members - me, Iain (Exitthelemming) and now you! This guy should really be listed on PA under proto prog. The campaign starts here!

I have a little story to tell about Brian Auger. I went to a concert of Eric Burdon with Jean. I don't know who the other musicians were (I had never heard their names before and have forgotten them), but the keyboarder was Brian Auger. During one song the guitar player broke a string, and while he put in another Auger improvised a solo to help him out. That was absolutely ad hoc and impressed both Jean and me very much; you really have to have a high level of musicality to pull that off.

I always loved the Oblivion Express albums.  Auger was not much of a composer -- though Second Wind is a fine song -- but man could he cover tunes:  Freedom Jazz Dance, Inner City Blues, Bumpin' on Sunset.  Fine stuff.]]> Sat, 18 Jun 2011 20:58:43 +0000 http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=79089&PID=4198703#4198703 Brian Auger : I'm a big Brian Auger... http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=79089&PID=4198685#4198685 Author: dwill123

He also did a version of Cream's 'Rope Ladder to the Moon' with Julie Driscoll which causes my fur to bristle agreeably.
