Brian Auger & Julie Driscoll's Albums - Progressive Rock Music Forum

I wasn't sure who you were talking about until I searched it on YouTube and found he was a part of Steampacket.

I was a big fan of them and Julie Driscoll when I was a teenager.

Thanks for reminding me of them Smile

Levitating downwards,
atomic feedback scream.

Bumpin' on Sunset is a classic piece of bliss and groove.

I'll keep my eyes Open for that one.

Streetnoise is just plain groovy and the Oblivion express live at the Whiskey vols 1 & 2 are fab funky fests of Hammond! 'Straight ahead' and 'Closer to it!' are really cool lps too Thumbs Up

Brian Auger's Oblivion Express Live at the Baked Potato jazz club in 2005 is definitely worth seeing too.

It's time to give some well-deserved Attention and Open praise for Brian Auger, the Hammond organ maestro of Jazz-Rock. It's Definitely What's needed, as I believe this may be the first Brian Auger tribute thread. He formed a musical partnership with Julie Driscoll - affectionately known together as Jools and Brian - and they formed a band known as Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & the Trinity back in 1967. They recorded some jazzy Streetnoise music together Befour Brian branched out away from Jools aboard his Oblivion Express train in search of A Better Land in 1970. Brian Auger now had a Second Wind with his new band and a new sound, and when it comes to powerhouse Jazz-Rock, Brian Auger's Oblivion Express was Closer To It than ever before. It was now full steam Straight Ahead with Reinforcements added to the band line-up at various stages, especially when it came to performing Live Oblivion. There were inevitable Happiness Heartaches along the way, but Brian reunited in an Encore album with Julie Driscoll (now known as Julie Tippetts, after marrying Jazz musician Keith Tippett) in 1978. Having temporarily left Oblivion Express behind, Brian Auger now set out on a Search Party for a new band in 1981, bringing us up to the Here and Now in 1984. Brian realised his Keys to the Heart still lay with Oblivion Express and he reformed his band in 1987 with some Voices From Other Times. Finally, Looking in the Eye of the World in 2005, Brian Auger finally discovered the Language of the Heart in his most recent studio album in 2012.

All albums highlighted in Red in chronological order of release.
