After joining Alexis Korner's Blues Incorporated in 1962, Graham Bond formed his own band the following year. This all-star line-up consisted of Bond, Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker (two future members of Cream!) and Dick Heckstall-Smith as saxophonist and now named as The Graham Bond Organisation. After being dropped by Decca, the band was then signed to Columbia where they released only two records.
Despite the commercial flop of their first album The Sound of '65, it is still highly critical acclaimed. „It may have been the greatest album of the Sixties and one of the most exciting and influential of its time.“ (Chris Welch).
