Active compensatory factors: I am a late comer to Brian Auger. A recent article in Mojo reminded me that I needed to check out some of his albums. So I went to the Real Groovy Records website, did a search and put them all in my cart (all of the above plus a compilation of Brian Auger and The Trinity). They were all reasonably priced too - clearly he's not considered highly in demand by RG staff.
Where do they all belong? He has certainly been a very prolific artist - his discography is extensive. I'll certainly be buying more whenever I come across it, whether it's first band Steampacket, his albums with Julie Driscoll, Trinity, or his Oblivion Express.
