Heavily influenced by Miles Davis’s contemporaneous experiments into fusion, The Flock were swiftly hailed as one of the world’s most exciting new bands in 1969. Boasting the frenetic violin of Jerry Goodman – later to find fame with John McLaughlin’s Mahavishnu Orchestra – as well as guitar and horns, they were championed by John Mayall and became a hit on the concert circuit in the US and Europe during their brief career. This set gathers two live performances that find them at the peak of their powers, and comes with background notes and images.
