The Dansette Kid/Hartley Jam for Bread by the Keef Hartley Band


Keef Hartley had an interesting musical career. This British drummer started out by replacing Ringo Starr in Rory Storm and the Hurricanes. He then played with Jon Lord in the Atwoods before forming his own band, the Keef Hartley Band, which would release several albums and play at Woodstock. He is also credited with teaching Phil Collins how to play the drums.

Getting back to the Keef Hartley Band, this was some heady jazz fusion influenced rock. Check out the debut piece from their second album, The Battle of North West 6.
