 So yeah ... now it’s tomorrow and I have even less shame ... so I’ll write things. 

Bond ... that’s a word ... and an interesting one from the perspective of early 60’s English blues history ... The Graham Bond Organization ... and he was much more than a cracker ... he helped those Limey fucks take over music appreciation there for a decade or so ... mid 60’s to mid 70’s roughly ... more or less ... give or take ... sorta maybe. Close enough for the Crickets Buddy.     

Of course Graham wasn’t around all that time nor was Alexis Korner, Cyril Davies, Long John Baldry, The Shadows or Screaming Lord Sutch although their influence certainly was. Another ‘of course’ is that John Mayall out lasted them all ... by a margin. 

So what WAS the greatest group to come out of the early 60’s mishmash jazz/blues scene? Or person? Hmmm ... certainly an interesting ponder and I wish I actually knew someone that had a reasonably intelligent answer ... anyone? You there next to the ugly thick chick next to the stale donuts ... anything? No? ... OK well ... sorry ... you are correct ... she isn’t that ugly ... 

Dick Huckstall Smith? Jack Bruce? ... Ginger Baker? ... ha ... now you are getting ... yes yes yes it’s CREAM ...  I’m such a one trick pony ... 

We’ll chat again ... until such time
