Notes

There has been of late a resurgence of good rock music coming out of Europe to challenge the already strongly eastablished groups on the home front. Not least of these new forces is the J.J. Band, a cosmopolitan collection of highly intelligent young men with a thorough knowledge of jazz which they have translated into their own individual brand of rock music.

The nine piece band has an impressive list of musical qualifications to its credit. The Belgium members of the band all studied music at the Brussels' Conservatoire and the American member Douglas Lucas, a professor who taught music at Chicago University later met the band while teaching in Brussels. Finally Mike Lovell, the English member of the group was a member of the National Youth Orchestra.

Altough from different parts of the globe they have combined together to form a very tight knit group producing their own more suttle rendition of the jazz/rock amalgam which has gone from strenght to strenght over the past few years.

Recorded at Chappell Studio, London. March 1971
