1969 Original BRITISH DERAM RECORDS COLLECTIBLE!
THE KEEF HARTLEY BAND
HALFBREED
\ UK - DERAM RECORDS - SML 1037
1969 original British first pressing vinyl pressing in laminated gatefold cover on the famed British- DERAM records label of the sixties.
The Keef Hartley Band's ''Halfbreed'' is arguably up there with bestof the English blues-boom albums. Having just been fired from the drum kit in John Mayall's Bluebreakers -- Keef Hartley took with him members of the Bluebreakers who had just recorded the great ''Crusade'' album. Joining them was Gary Thain on bass (who would later show up on Uriah Heep's best efforts like ''Demons & Wizards'' and ''Look At Yourself.''), along with Spit James and Miller Anderson on guitars. Two incredably talented guitarists whose work on cuts like ''Born To Die'' is as good as any work by better known guitarists, such as Clapton, Beck, Peter Green, etc. Miller Anderson also had a voice that was born to sing the blues -- it is an incredibly expressive voice that carries so much strength, emotion and tenderness (when needed) that few UK blues singers are his equal. To fill it all out, Peter Dines was on keys and the Hammond B3 organ to give that fat sound that only a B3 can bring to the blues. Gorgeous stuff. Brash stuff. Blistering stuff. It's all here. Their version of ''Leavin' Trunk'' will peel the paint off the walls and the aforementioned ''Born To Die'' would easily make the top 10 of best UK blooz-boom cuts..
