• Recorded in a single session in 1967 at Chappell Studios in London, Open marked a bold debut for the trio. The album effortlessly melds jazz-rock improvisation with soul, psychedelic pop, and R&B. Augers Hammond organ work drives the rhythm section through intricate instrumentals on Side A (In and Out, Isola Natale), while Julie Driscolls vocals bring a smoky, soulful presence to Side B, especially on covers like Otis Reddings Tramp and the emotionally charged Why (Am I Treated So Bad?).

  Touted today as a cult classic, Open captures a fluid moment in late-60s British musicwhen genre boundaries blurred and experimentation ruled. Its dynamic rangefrom tender piano laments to percussive freak-outsreflects both Augers improvisational flair and Driscolls emotive power.
