The Graham Bond Organisation are to put out a four disc box set in June. The collection boasts “the biggest and most comprehensive collection of work” released by the band. Wade In The Water (Classics, Origins & Oddities) will be released through Repertoire Records on June 4.
Wade In The Water (Classics, Origins & Oddities) features 96-tracks, including many from the band’s classic albums – with many remixed by ex-Cream lyricist Pete Brown and Dick Heckstall-Smith (Colosseum) from the original 4-track masters.
It also includes several live performances by the GBO including Ginger Baker’s first vocal, plus an amazingly wild gig by the band’s original line-up; originally unavailable on CD until 2012. Also featured rare demo sessions together with the GBO backing other artists, many unreleased at the time plus others unavailable since the 60s.
The set comes packed into double jewel cases, with two 20-page booklets; one featuring archive memorabilia, rare photos and an introduction by producer Pete Brown, the other track-by-track annotation.

first press 14-track mono LP on the blue & black Columbia
label, the astounding debut from Bond, Jack Bruce, Ginger
Baker & Dick Heckstall-Smith, offering an innovative fusion of
R&B, blues, jazz & showcasing the outstanding musicianship
of the quartet, front laminated flipback picture sleeve. The
cover [VG+] has some ring wear creasing with the odd spot of
tiny paper loss to a corner or two. The back panel remains
sharp with nowriting & just minor age wear. The vinyl has
been professionally cleaned & grades VG. There are some
spindle marks by the centre hole & a degree of paper scuffing
both sides, with several paper hairline marks. Playback
remains superb on a mono setting due to the quality of British
vinyl from this period, although some light background
surface is apparent in the quieter sections. A very serviceable
example & the sound of '65! 33SX1711) GRAHAM BOND ORGANIZATION There's A Bond Between Us
(1965 UK 12-track mono vinyl LP, front laminated flipback
picture sleeve. The sleeve on this copy shows some mild
shelfwear with a degree of discolouration to the unlaminated
back, but remainsintact & untorn. The vinyl too shows some
noticable surface scuffs, spindlemarks around the centre hole
& has obviously been played, but still sounds far better than it
looks, thanks to the high quality sixties pressing. Upon play
testing, wefound it to play with just a little surface noise
evident in quiet passages and between tracks. A very
acceptable copy of this great album at an extremely
advantageous price 33SX1750)EIL.COM Favourite Music Update Rare CDs, CD Singles, Rare Records, Vinyl Records, Albums and Music
