The band’s origins go back to 1965 at the University of Sussex in Brighton when Lynton Naiff (keyboards), Grant Serpell (drums), and Nick Nicholas (double bass) formed the US Jazz Trio to perform at University events and local gigs. When Serpell graduated a year later he was replaced by Mo Foster who had earlier been playing bass guitar in his school band but had now switched to drums.In 1968, Naiff, Serpell and Foster recruited Mike Jopp on guitar and the outstanding vocalist Linda Hoyle to form Affinity. The band made their live debut in October 1968 and soon appeared on the BBC radio show Jazz Club. Legendary saxophonist and club owner Ronnie Scott heard a recording of this performance and subsequently agreed to manage them and give them regular bookings at his world-famous jazz club.Affinity soon began to attract a lot of favourable media attention and signed to the newly formed Vertigo label in 1969. Their eponymous debut album, produced by John Anthony, appeared in 1970. Thanks to outstanding tracks such as ‘Three Sisters’, ‘Night Flight’ and imaginative covers of Bob Dylan’s ‘All Along The Watchtower’ and Alan Hull’s ‘I Am And So Are You’, Affinity received excellent reviews, with the Sunday Times praising the playing of organist Lynton Naiff and vocalist Linda Hoyle.Track Listing:DISC ONE:Affinity Remastered1 I Am And So Are You2 Night Flight3 I Wonder If I Care As Much4 Mr Joy5 Three Sisters6 Coconut Grove7 All Along The WatchtowerBonus tracks (A & B-sides of single)8 Eli’s Coming9 United States Of Mind10 Yes Man (Recorded at Phillips Studios, London - December 1970)11 If You Live (Recorded for BBC Radio Jazz Club - August 1968)12 You Met Your Match (Recorded at Pan Studios, London in 1968)13 I Am The Walrus (Recorded for Sez Lez August 1969)14 Little Lonely Man (Recorded for BBC Radio 1 in 1970)15 All Along The Watchtower/ It’s About That Time (Bootleg recording - The Torrington early 1971)DISC TWO:1 Jive Samba2 Dis Here3 Comin’ Home Baby4 Out Of The Storm5 Fever6 13 Death March7 All Blues8 819 A Day In The LifeBonus tracks10 All Blues11 8112 Mercy, Mercy, Mercy13 Jive Samba14 A Day In The LifeDISC THREE:Affinity Origins 1965-67 — The US Jazz Trio1 Autumn Leaves2 Django3 My Funny Valentine4 I Got Plenty Of Nothing5 Dat Dere6 Lover Man7 Blues Etude8 Some Day My Prince Will Come9 Cubano Chant10 Jordu11 My Funny Valentine12 Autumn Leaves13 You Look Good To Me14 The Preacher (Recorded at University of Sussex and Keele University)Bonus tracks15 Waltz For Debbie16 Django17 On Green Dolphin Street (Recorded at University of Sussex in 1965)DISC FOUR:Affinity II 1971 – 19721 Moira’s Hand2 Grey Skies3 Cream On Your Face4 Sunshower5 All Along The Watchtower/It’s About Time6 Rio7 Poor Man’s Son8 Sarah’s Wardrobe9 Highgate Powered by SixBit's eCommerce Solution
