[@rickfobes5386]

Wow! So grateful these classic videos continue to be introduced on KZbin. He is a a B3 master!

[@CJROMelMayner]

Fantastic - takes me back to my concert days in the 70s! I was a big fan of Brian Auger's Oblivion Express!

[@jamescotton207]

Still one my favorite organ players. ❤

[@genoortiz743]

Mid 70's in So. Cal.... I waited forever, hoping Brian would have a show close to home. FINALLY.... The "Golden Bear" in Huntington Beach, CA. Two weeks later, I moved to Portland OR. WTF, Brian Auger performing Downtown Portland. I took about 15 friends, no one ever heard of him. After the show....HE WAS THEIR FAVORITE!! I also saw him touring with Eric Burdon in Kailua-Kona on the Big Island. Love you Brian, I am blessed to have seen this musical genius. Your music will live forever.

Flacking incredible

[@SD9xcp311x]

What a Jam!!!!

[@lindajohnson7584]

Alex and Brian pure magic!!

[@chrissupport]

Jack Mills is a perfect addition. I sat right in front of him at the "Reinforcements" concert in St. Louis.

[@Cleartwater]

BRIAN AUGER THE BEST KEYBOARD PLAYER THERE IS. SEEN HIM MANY TIMES. ALSO WATCH WHENEVER YOU'RE READY FOR KEYBOARD ACTION. QUICKWATER.

[@billroberts4910]

I have attended dozens of concerts since 1964 and the one performer I regret never seeing is Mr. Auger and his band. I hope I get to change that before I die.

[@jimhutchison]

or before he dies .

[@genoortiz743]

I saw him 5 or 6 times. In spirit, I'll give you one of my experiences of my enjoyment of witnessing this legendary musical genius.

[@guyharrison4644]

Excellent,love Alex Ligertwood. tnx for sharing.

[@jamescotton207]

Guitar/ vocal is great 2!

[@TheMisterGriswold]

Awesome!

[@lindajohnson7584]

Brian and Alex=Magic!

[@Tmidiman]

I’ve never heard this before. Love It!

[@chrissupport]

The studio version on "Closer to It" is good too. Comes in at a different angle with Brian on vocals.

[@georgecandreva2842]

Brian Auger "lights em' up" on the Hammond B3. Jazz/Rock/Funk and R&B keyboard wizard. Nasty productions!

[@scurvybro8850]

Freaking killing it.

[@krisscanlon4051]

Ligertwood!

[@TheMacasso]

BASS HEAVY BADNEZZZ

[@jjr007]

Too bad the keyboards are so low in the mix. Fantastic keyboard player. Bought this album in 1975 on the advice of a friend, never regretted it and have it digitized on a flash drive, from the best of my music library for listening to in the car.

[@fmtfniuprog8029]

t's really a shame that Clive Chaman's bass is so low in volume! This bassist is fantastic!

[@danlanders9219]

He was with Jeff Beck when Jeff did the "Rough And Ready" record and the one to follow.

[@clarence6623]

This is one of the best so-called White group I've ever heard. Brain really bangs.

[@adriangroeneveld9341]

Bloody hell, how he burned on that organ back in his heydays !

[@genoortiz743]

HE STILL DOES!!!!

[@waynemccuen8213]

4 thumbs down? Those 4 must be Abba fans or deaf.

Summerland

[@claysnyder1257]

Live in a tiny little room at University of California San Diego too much too good

[@karl662]

I just realized that Alex Ligertwood was the lead singer with Santana for a few years. I only recognized him because of the gap in his teeth. Googled it and sure enough, the same guy.

[@brianmullins5157]

The good old days of real music! And sadly the Hammond organ kinda went away with the 70's too.

[@squigsmusic]

Jam bands use it

[@piercehawke8021]

There's still a demand for new B3's and Leslie 147's............Suzuki now builds faithful replicas (tubes and all) as well as modern versions, which sound essentially the same.

[@artysanmobile]

I’m not sure I’ve ever, ever, heard worse playing between a kit and hand drums. Anti-groove.

[@tomtrana3449]

Are you really sure?
