the people band

Containing musicians that also worked with Pete Brown, Mike Westbrook, Ian Dury, Soft Machine and others, this musical collective coalesced in London in 1968, and soon came to the attention of jazz aficionado Charlie Watts, who financed and oversaw a recording session that October. Improvised, anarchic and utterly original, the results are comparable to the contemporary work of Amalgam and the Spontaneous Music Ensemble, and make a long-awaited return to CD here.
