Released in 1968, Open is a landmark album showcasing the remarkable chemistry between jazz-rock innovator Brian Auger, his group The Trinity, and the electrifying vocalist Julie Driscoll. The album is a study in eclecticism, blending jazz, soul, funk, and rock into a boldly adventurous sound that helped define the late-60s British jazz-rock scene.
The album is split into two distinct halves — the first led by Brian Auger and The Trinity through a range of largely instrumental tracks that highlight Auger's virtuosity and his influences ranging from Duke Ellington to surrealist humor, while the B-side belongs to Julie Driscoll, whose powerful vocals deliver a sharp and unforgettable shift in tone. Now reissued on vinyl through Soul Bank Music, this is a compelling listen for fans of jazz, soul, and the adventurous spirit of late-60s music.
