BAKER & BOND-LIVE BREMEN 1970
|
Ginger Baker and Graham Bond, live from
Bremen, Germany on 24th October 1970
Back together for the first time since
their powerhouse days in the Graham Bond Organisation with Jack Bruce, Ginger
Baker and Graham Bond join forces again in Ginger Baker’s Air Force. Having
unknowingly and single-handedly invented jazz-rock fusion, Bond was not only
revered by all, but was a widely admired and respected figure, but one that was
also deeply troubled. Coupled with Baker’s explosive talent and transatlantic
fame, this was going to be an incredible meeting of minds. However, when
Baker’s co-operative project came to an abrupt end in 1971, it would also
signal the tragic and untimely death of Bond, aged just 36. This powerhouse
performance from 1970 is a true gem of British jazz-rock fusion, performed in
its infancy and by its original authors whose combined talent marks a milestone
in British blues, jazz, R&B and rock. Rox Vox very proudly presents for the
first time ever, Ginger Baker’s Air Force, live from Bremen, Germany, 24th
October 1970, broadcast on EDF-TV. Superb, professional re-mastering with
expansive liners and rare archival images makes this a truly prized edition for
collectors and the curious.
