Upp was the debut self-titled album of former English rock/jazz fusion band Upp, and was released in 1975. The album was recorded at Escape Studios, Kent. The opening track "Bad Stuff" showcases charismatic guitar playing by Jeff Beck. Strong affiliation of funk music is felt in the tracks "Get Down in the Dirt", "Friendly Street" and "Give It to You". Jeff Beck produces and plays guitars on this album with no mention of him on the album's liner notes.

  • Agree - I saw these guys at Aylesbury Friars in 1975..ish, they were supporting a band called Widowmaker, who were unbelievably loud and crap. Upp were knockout and Steven Amazing was way ahead of his time, along with Colin Hodgkinson and Pastorius, great band, fond memories. Would love to see the OGWT footage sometime.

  • Great upload mate...saw these guys at the Roundhouse supporting Canned Heat ..they came across even better live..but I bought these two albums ...great track ..great to hear after all these years, can really hear the Jeff Beck influence..he produced their albums or one of them as well as guesting for them...

  • Jeff Beck was such a restless pioneer and innovator. We need more like him today in the music bizz.

  • Dave Bunce .....I used to go and watch him with his band Driving Sideways.I didnt know he was in upp.I knew he was a bit special and now I know why.

  • @snerdsdvig I was in a band with Dave in the late 80's/early 90's. Great guitarist, great singer, great mate. I haven't spoken to him in many years now but I'm sure he will still be playing, one of the few musicians I have had the privilege to work with who can be described as a natural.

  • The guitarist in this band was Dave Bunce.He was better than Beck.I dont know what he is doing these days but he had a feel better than anyone,

  • Lve this post! I stumbled upon the vinyl many years ago and it has been a staple in my collection of the greatest albums ever. I continue to play this over and over and now I can hear it without all of the scratches!

  • I'm liking this a lot, John! Nice and smooth. Great upload!

    Thanks, for sharing this with me, John.

  • I LOVE this track, and how on earth the album failed to sell by the truck load is beyond me, there's not a duff track on it.

  • WHY do I not know about this? Jeff Beck!!!  That's all that needs to be said.

  • Played this to death in the 70's one of Jeff's great unknown solos, no histrionics just nice and funky - just builds and builds - love the synth guitar jamming. Radio Merseyside nicked a sample for their signature?

    Enjoy

  • Great band saw them several times at the Marquee.Bass player and the guitarist were outstanding.
