Affinity were a UK progressive jazz/rock fusion band started in mid-1968, and were also one of the first artists to sign to the newly formed Vertigo record label in 1970. Established in the late 1960s, the band featured vocalist Linda Hoyle, drummer Grant Serpell, keyboard player Lynton Naiff, guitarist Mike Jopp and bassist Mo Foster. In the mid-1960s, science students Naiff and Serpell had been previous members of the University of Sussex Jazz Trio, and campus pop band the Baskervilles. Bass player Mo Foster. Naiff and Serpell then formed the short-lived pop group, Ice, which folded within a year. The musicians were then joined by former English teacher Linda Hoyle, and named themselves after the title of an Oscar Peterson album.
They played their first gig on 5 October 1968 at the Revolution Club, just off Berkeley Square, and would later go on to play at the famous Ronnie Scott's in London. The band was managed by jazz musician, Ronnie Scott. Their debut album was released in early 1970 and was, until recently, believed to be the only recording from this group. Led Zeppelin bass player and keyboardist John Paul Jones.
