Jeff St John’s Copperwine Sealed Reissue LP Joint effort BRC017 Psyche Prog Soul
OZ Sealed Reissue LP released in 2016 on Blank Records. Cat: BRC-017.
At the height of his fame with 1960's Australian mod / r'n'b / blue eyed soul combo, The Id, Jeff St John picked up and quit in 1968. He put together a new combo in 1968 called Yama (hindu for mere mortals) featuring bassist Virgil East from from Python Lee Jackson and drummer Peter Figures from Sydney 60's punk legends, The Throb. After releasing one 7" single in 1968, Yama evolved into COPPERWINE by 1969. COPPERWINE melded together elements of funk / soul / psychedelia and progressive rock into one. The choice of covers on this album are touchstones to where they were coming from. Tunes by Sly & The Family Stone, The Four Tops, Blind Faith, Washboard Sam & The Temptations are all given a work out. COPPERWINE's Joint Effort was released in 1970 to critical acclaim but scant initial sales. As Jeff's legacy began to grow the album would become a perennial seller in the early 1970's and has been described as a fine artefact of what was musically going on with Australian rock in this heady and fertile time, documents what a fine band Copperwine was and provided conclusive proof that Jeff is one of the best rock vocalists this country has ever produced.
