2010 fans

Born in London in 1939, pianist and organist Brian Auger got his start with the Steampacket group, which in 1965 included Rod Stewart, Long John Baldry and Julie Driscoll. The following year, he formed the Trinity Ensemble with Driscoll, which scored big hits with Bob Dylan's cover of "This Wheel's on Fire" and Donovan's "Season of the Witch". In 1970, he switched from psychedelic pop to jazz fusion with the Oblivion Express project, which produced a handful of ambitious albums. Following a reunion with Julie Driscoll, who became Tippetts on the album Encore (1978), Brian Auger pursued a solo career punctuated by recordings such as Search Party (1980), Here & Now (1984), Keys to the Heart (1987) and the double live album Super Jam (1990), as well as numerous collaborations with, among others, Eric Burdon and Tony Williams. In 1995, he reactivated Oblivion Express for a decade, followed by Trinity in 2011. 2012 saw the release of the solo album Language of the Heart, followed in 2015 by the compilation Back to the Beginning: The Brian Auger Anthology.
