Based on sheer musical ability, the Q 65 deserved to be at least as well known 

as the Pretty Things or the Yardbirds. Indeed, the Dutch quintet could have 

held their own with either of those groups or the Animals without breaking a sweat, 

based on the recorded evidence, and they also had room for some of the more 

countrified blues evident in the work of the Downliners Sect. Yet the Q 65 have 

remained one of Europe's best-kept star-caliber musical secrets for more than 30 years. 

The Q 65 were Frank Nuyens (guitar, vocals, sax, flute, harmonica), Willem Bieler (vocals, harmonica), 

Peter Vink (bass), Joop Roelofs (guitar), and Jay Baar (drums), first got together in 1965, in the Hague. 

The city was known as "the Liverpool of the Netherlands," with a music scene 

that had been thriving since the end of the '50s

This album found Q 65 at their peak. 

Q 65 were among only a handful of non-English speaking bands of the mid-'60s 

whose talent rivaled second-tier groups such as the Pretty Things in the search 

for a rock-oriented update of Chicago blues. What set them apart, and what makes 

Revolution very reminiscent of Back Door Men by the Shadows of Knight, is the 

broad range of music performed above and beyond the basic R&B. 

The band played acoustic as well as hard psych numbers along with the standards, 

and experimented with harmonium and other instruments to make Revolution 

more interesting than the average garage release. Despite the eclecticism, 

their blues interpretations work best, from the nice take of "Spoonful" to the 

groundbreaking 13-minute cover of "Bring It on Home," the real missing link between 

the rave-ups of the Yardbirds and the post-Cream jam bands of the late-'60s...(AllMusic)
