CD
/ Julie Driscoll and the Brian Auger Trinity / If Your

When Steampacket folded in '66 Brian Auger formed a new version of The

Much less mainstream than most of the stuff on her full length. My favorite

17 songs which sit together quite well without sharing a common sound.

A steady beat, a rollicking looped sound like Kevin Shield's finest
hour, a slight female vocal with an intriguing accent, and a dreamy feel
you could close your eyes to.

two mixed in the bunch.
