The Graham Bond Organisation
The Graham Bond Organisation (GBO) were a British blues/blues rock group of the mid-1960s consisting of Graham Bond (vocals, keyboards, alto-saxophone), Jack Bruce (bass), Ginger Baker (drums), Dick Heckstall-Smith (tenor/soprano saxophone) and John McLaughlin (guitar). They recorded several albums and further recordings were issued when the group's members achieved fame in rock bands like Cream and Blind Faith, and also in jazz rock. On original releases, the spelling of the band's name varied between the British "Organisation" with an S and the American "Organization" with a Z. Record Collector magazine have referred to the group as freakbeat, a retrospective label describing the transition from British beat and rhythm and blues to psychedelia.
