  • Klooks Kleek...the Nice were amazing at that first outing with Blinky Davidson on drums it was really in the pocket .It got fiddly after that.

    Baker and Bruce unbeatable with their backgrounds in jazz , they could both play the ass of anybody and took that through to Cream.Wicked real Rn B.

  • 1964

  • On my first visit to Klooks Kleek I saw Jack Bruce pre Graham Bond playing upright string bass. Also saw John Mayall with Eric Clapton 7/6p entry i.e. 38p in new money and saw Lockjaw Davis too.

  • I think also Graham raped his daughter, and ended it all drunk in front of a moving train, but when he wailed, oh my, he was fantastic. Yeah, I hate to hear about these guy's demons. Like John Phillips. But, they weren't always monsters, and I think they had serious regrets.

  • This is a great live album, the introduction with Graham Bond and Dick Jordan is well worth posting, thanks for this !!

  • love this, almost as much as the live cream version

  • man, wouldn't it have been great to have been there for this recording!!

  • thanks for that!

    [I'm sure a lot of the inane comments were made by xxxxxxx's who never had the privilege to have seen him]

  • Comment removed

  • cool , v. cool....

  • can never get enough jack bruce THANKS

  • Graham Bond had a really sad life. I think he molested a little girl, maybe his daughter, and was part of a satanic cult, but, had he stuck to the R&B, he'd be considered a God. This early stuff is awesome, it's just so sad, the life he led.

  • kinda depresses me while listening to a nice song like this. way to ruin it.

  • Sorry if I ruined song for you. It's like Phil Spector, who wants to know about their demons?? Still, I thought the information might be of some interest to people exploring G. Bond and his legacy. Debbie Downer??? Smile!

  • i looked at his biography, and, it depresses me even more. He killed himself because he was Aleister Crowley's son or something like that.

    i thought it would be like john mayall where he got fine after his runin with drugs.

  • Good grief, Klooks Kleek. I remember having to lie about my age to get in there to see the Nice. Saw Graham Bond once, can't remember much about the set though. Nice track.

  • lucky you m8 am to young to have been there born in 71 definately born in wrong decade, so were you into the mod scene back then

  • Only partly. Wore some of the clothes and listened to some of the bands but was a bit more 'art school' type really. Evolved into what they termed a 'hippy' though was never one of those San Fransisco type, just into the music and the London scene.

  • what was the San Francisco type?

  • Much more out of touch with reality. Into some impossible Utopia. In fact Hippies. Most of us weren't, we just got called it because we looked much the same. Also got called 'freaks' 'heads' 'weirdos'.  Perhaps those fitted us better.

  • omg!! this is so cool!! I feel excited when I heard a young Jack Bruce singing!!:D

    this version is so cool!!:)

  • this whole lp is total class

  • You can tell it isn't grahm bond because bond has a really raspy singing voice.

  • The whole album's just awesome, just like actually being there (I wasn't, I was too young). You can feel the heat, smell the ciggy smoke and see the condensation dripping down the walls. The sound quality is awful on one or two tracks, but somehow it doesn't matter.

    The version of "What'd I Say" recorded on the same occasion is THE best ever - give the guys a treat and post it, cc1873cc!

  • i thought i'd posted that song m8, or was it the studio version

    yep you can taste it m8

    gbo mad as a hatter on that hammond m8

    sorry i've just seen these comments m8

  • klooks kleek man....awesome post blue hand command

  • cheers m8, hows life in italia

  • This is a great song. I used to have the album but a university colleague with whom I set up the Blues society, 'borrowed' it and I never saw it again! Thanks for posting

  • we have all been there my friend, gave records to m8's a loan of and have never seen them again

  • Never loaned records, for just that reason.  And never borrowed 'em either, in case of accidents that I'd only have felt awful about.
