Live In Northampton 1976

A parallel to Martha Velez, Jean Turk answered the call of Blighty’s Cream, left America and followed the siren notes of Clapton’s guitar to England , ending up recording and gigging around the Northampton area in the early seventies. She hooked up with guitar legend Anthony Barford of Axe and Crystalline, recorded at SIS Studios with Steve Giles of Dark, and later at Spaceward in Cambridge. This release documents a 1976 gig of raw heavy blues at the point it began to morph into metal, heavy on the Free influence, Turk is backed by British musicians and blasts through a very heavy set. At a point during Mr Big theres a transcendent moment of Wall Of Sound lead guitar feedback. Her greatest material is actually later Disco Funk influenced material that will be released once the crumbling cassette sources are mastered, as will her SIS tracks with Axe members.classic
