Synopsis

Album Description
Recorded in '69 but shelved by Polydor until January of 1971, Julie Driscoll's 1969 is truly a lost classic. Recorded following the disbanding of Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger and the Trinity, who scored a worldwide hit with their highly imaginative cover of Dylan's This Wheel's on Fire. The sessions featured a stellar cast of guest musicians from the worlds of jazz and rock, such as Elton Dean, Nick Evans, Karl Jenkins and Marc Charig (all former members of Soft Machine), Brian Godding, Jim Creegan, Brian Belshaw (from the legendary group Blossom Toes) and other celebrated lumini, including Chris Speeding, Bob Downes and Keith Tippett, Driscoll's future husband. 1969 is a unique work, veering from folk influences to experimental free form jazz, showcasing the vocal ability of Julie Driscoll, surely one of Britain's greatest ever female vocalists. The release of the album, remastered from the original master tapes, is another milestone in Eclectic's catalogue reissue series and is sure to receive enthusiastic coverage in the quality music press.
