Hartley first caught the public eye when he replaced Ringo Starr as drummer 

for Rory Storm and The Hurricanes. He later moved to London in 1964, hitting the skins first for 

The Artwoods and then for John Mayall's Bluesbreakers in April 1967.

Together with Colosseum, the Keef Hartley Band of the late 60s forged jazz and rock music 

sympathetically to appeal to the UK progressive music scene

Hartley  joined John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers and was present during one of Mayall’s vintage periods.

 Both Crusade and Diary Of A Band highlighted Hartley’s economical drumming and faultless timing. 

The brass-laden instrumental track on John Mayall’s Bare Wires is titled ‘Hartley Quits’. 

The good-natured banter between Hartley and his ex-boss continued onto Hartley’s strong debut, Halfbreed. 

The opening track, ‘Hearts And Flowers,’ has the voice of Mayall on the telephone officially sacking Hartley, 

albeit tongue-in-cheek, while the closing track ‘Sacked’ has Hartley dismissing Mayall! 

The intervening music features some of the best ever late-60s jazz-influenced blues, 

and the album remains an undiscovered classic.

Hartley, often dressed as an American Indian, sometimes soberly, sometimes in full headdress and war paint, 

was a popular attraction on the small club scene. His was one of the few British bands 

to play the Woodstock Festival, where his critics compared him favourably with Blood, Sweat And Tears...(AllMusic)
