BRIAN AUGER, JULIE DRISCOLL AND THE TRINITY Open 1967 UK MARMALADE 1st *MONO*

BRIAN AUGER, JULIE DRISCOLL AND THE TRINITY
Open

UK MARMALADE (607 002) FIRST *MONO* PRESSING (November 1967)
EXCELLENT COPY WITH FANTASTIC SOUND

Side One is devoted to primarily instrumental material featuring Brian Auger, while Side Two is far more soul-rock-influenced with vocal tracks spotlighting Julie Driscoll.
It was consistent with the multi-dimensional aesthetic that Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger & the Trinity promoted, but it must have confused and perhaps even put off fans attracted to the act by the hit single "This Wheel's on Fire."
For open-minded pop fans of that time or future eras, however, it's a quite interesting blend of rock, blues, soul, and a little psychedelia.
Auger's own brand of heavily Jimmy Smith-influenced organ soul-jazz dominates the first five tracks -- in fact, "In and Out" is a cover of a tune by Smith's sometime duo partner, guitarist Wes Montgomery.
Vocal soul comes far more to the forefront on the Driscoll-driven songs, and while some of them are credible British blue-eyed soul with prominent organ, the Auger-Driscoll original "A Kind of Love In" and the cover of Donovan's "Season of the Witch" move into groovier psychedelic territory.

The “Upton” laminated cover has general light wear to the edges and corners - nothing major - all spine text is clear and bold
