    Drummer Keef Hartley was a former sidemate of John Mayall and was a feature in the Bluesbreakers in 1968 , before leaving the famous UK bluesman and forming his own band .

    This appears to be the stripped down version that appeared at Bath in 69, at times the band was augmented with a large brass section which gave it a lot of onstage clout , but I doubt if that line-up could have fitted on this tiny stage !.
