dam i remember driveing around guzzling beer and jamin to ten years after. humble pie, stones ,johnny winter, hendrix , and all the other rock band of the time.
Oh yeah, this the greatest rock & roll band ever ! Played all their shit around the house, booming way back in early 70's. Im a chicano from south texas, so you can imagine my parents reaction when i jammed to their music ! PRICELESS!!! Greetings from the ATX., El Cottonpicker!
@garystabler You could check out Savoy Brown, or early 70s Weather Report or Colosseum. Fleetwood Mac touched on it, but they were fundamentally blues-rock during the '67-'69 period. Hendrix was moving toward fusion by '69/'70 with "Band Of Gypsys" and tracks on the posthumous LP "Cry Of Love". Try Jeff Beck's "Wired". Of course, if you want the scale tipped more in the jazz direction, with rock influenced rhythms, you could listen to Miles Davis' "Bitches Brew" & "In A Silent Way".
@garystabler The list of so called jazz-rock goes on. It seemed to flourish from the late 60s to mid 70s. It depends on whether you want more rock, or jazz in your soup. Ten Years After was great. Chicago, like them or not, was jazz influenced on early releases... and even Emerson,Lake & Palmer incorporated some jazz into what was labeled progressive rock. Often noted as the first jazz rock group, Larry Coryell's Free Spirits released one album titled "Out of Sight and Sound" in '66 or '67.
Love Alvin's singing, love Alvin. So glad the fro is gone.

Interesting document. It's pretty rare to hear what the keyboardist does. And the bassist seems to come direct from te Muppet Show..

Could somebody please tell me of any other late 60's/70s bands that play this Jazz-Rock style? I've been gold-digging for months, thank you!
