An unfairly overlooked figure in British rock music of the 1960s, Graham's band had many influential talents in his group yet he never got the big break himself. One of the very first UK musicians to play the Hammond B3 organ, his live performances were legendary. Unfortunately, he lost his way through mental illness and heroin addiction. He committed suicide aged only 37, in May 1974. Remember a gifted, tragic man this way.
@@FloridaManMatty never heard that before. I read a fair bit about him. I k ow he was obsessed with magic and the occult and suxh, but hadn't heard anything about being a pedophile.
@@simonecarniel4859 yes he abused his stepdaughter, he was married to Di Stewart at the time she tried her best to relaunch his fading career, but all in vain, a rather sad ending to his hi rather odd life, read Harry Shapiro's book it's very enlighting, as far as we know it was only his stepdaughter he sexually abused, his main vice was heroin and it was ultimately his downfall
I think Graham Bond was an extremely underrated musician. It's unfortunate that most people haven't heard about him until the Ginger Baker documentary came out.

Too bad the clip cut off early. The "professor" afterwards criticizes each of the musicians one-by-one. OK, it's scripted that way in the movie but Ginger takes off his sunglasses and stares back daggers at him.
I first saw GBO at Mirrless Blackstone social club. It started with Ginger Baker walks on and starts drumming. Then Jack Bruce came on and starts hitting the bass. Dick Henshall now walks on and joins in the sax. Finally Graham Bond himself comes on and plays Wade in the Water. The night was brilliant. So I saw 3 of Cream that night. Sadly it all came to a sad end.z
Heckstall-Smith. He formed Colosseum in the late sixties and they’re worth checking out, including their cover of Jack Bruce’s song Rope Ladder to the Moon.
Took me a minute. Started watching the video without seeing the credits and then there he was. A very young Ginger Baker on drums. Love the jam and the over emphasized rocking moves, being made by everyone in the band and the dancers. A wicked 60's video. So cool!
The first record Jack made after Cream split was Things We Like, a jazz record with McLaughlin and Heckstall-Smith, plus Jon Hiseman, drummer of Colosseum. Polydor freaked and made him release Songs for a Tailor first, and even then TWL was issued cut price with a horrible cover of Jack eating bangers and mash with his hands.
A rare glimpse into the genius of the Beatles. John adding “It’s much too COMMON for me” and Ringo picking up the beat and rhythm and then filling in a classic beat. Absolute genius on display.
Cool song… Never heard it before. I had seen a brief clip of the video, it’s pretty hilarious - everybody’s spazzing out - no doubt that the director’s behest. RIP, all you legends
Graham bond The REAL early father of r.n.b. this is a clip from the early sixties film gonks go beat.. ginger baker on drums .n, jack bruce always having a punch up in life then they formed cream.and still had a go . poor graham ended it all in 1973 under a tube train in londons Finsbury Park
Now that's a business I'd like to shake hands with, the Graham Bond Organisation. Shaking, Stirring and a whole lotta mojo divining goin' on. Groovy baby !
I really like this song. I'd heard the name of the group on a history of rock n roll program because two members of Cream were in it. I've never heard a song by them on the radio or ever seen one of their records. Even in a used and collectible records store. It sounds like they were virtually unknown in the US. The movie clip looks like something from Gilligan's Island.
I was reading an interview with Ian Anderson about the early band he was in, (The John Evans Band) and he talked about the GBO. I had heard of them before but I had no idea Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker were in the band! Crazy! Graham had a great voice and chops on the organ for sure
This is literally the only good thing about this movie. It must have been pretty awkward for Baker to have to beg Bruce to join Cream after kicking him out of Graham Bond Organisation.
uffff..el origen el germen ... de lo que comensaria toda una revolución cultural los simiente de todo un acontecimiento musical que revolucionó al planeta☮️✌️☮️
Aside from the Carnaby St.,/Fab Four scene taking most of the oxygen ,there existed a pulsing London netherworld of R&B , 'Northern Soul, and Delta Blues.Graham's band was the critic's, and fan fave.
When _Beware of Mr. Baker_ came out the whole _Gonks Go Beat_ was available on YT. This song had a really goofy but funny lead-in, but when it was over "Professor Beats" had a great assessment of his pupils and IIRC he didn't know what he was going to do with Ginger, who was basically hopeless. The 'F-that-C' look on Ginger's face was perfect. It also looked like Ginger had a groupie. That last line got me thinking about a story in _Beware of Mr. Baker,_ the one that ended with "I'm in heaven!" What a life.
Fifty State yeah I think you have it about right there on the teachers assessment! Excellent little video and what a tune, brilliant all round, thank you for posting this 👍
Absolutely amazing tune, but has anyone else noticed that the colour of Ginger's shirt changes constantly throughout the video? One minute it's cream, the next it's teal/dark blue! >_
Graham Bond is one of the most underrated musicians of all time!!!
Fantastic voice, gravelly and earthy.

@@FloridaManMatty holy shit! Can you send any links? I needs to know more. Thanks!
@@SpongeLab which Shapiro book was it referenced in?
This is bloody brilliant, its like a carry on film set on LSD.
Might have been.
Graham ended up injecting LSD with his heroin
Nailed it
A scene from Gonks Go Beat.
Possibly Heroin
"Graham Bond was a fat guy "
LOL.....this video makes the song enjoyable....thanks for posting
He was a very scary guy
Hahaha...that line made the movie...”whoa graham. You can’t just say they went with graham and not give context......graham bond was a fat guy!
..I was gonna say that,!!!
@@andystephenson5407 I just said Graham, for fucks sake
The only concert held on Gilligan's Island.
I don't remember a tiger on the island? Lol
Did you forget the "Mosquitoes"?
Now we know were the B-52's got their inspiration. Excellent. Ginger Baker is my favorite.
The mosquitos held a concert ...lol..
good one
Bond was a tortured genius......These are 'jazzer' who got into R 'n' B to pay the rent, and changed popular music forever!
Two-thirds of Cream, 55 years ago. Crazy.
I think Graham Bond was an extremely underrated musician. It's unfortunate that most people haven't heard about him until the Ginger Baker documentary came out.
Best part about a love hate relationship is that Jack and Ginger needed each other to play at their fullest. Way ahead of pretty much everyone here.
Thought I heard a rumble of thunder earlier, but I now realise it was Ginger Baker. Godspeed.

I keep coming back see Ginger's groupie. She just my type.
Say wat u will but these cats had talent oozing out of them
What else would anyone say?

That's savage man, I wanna know more about ginger Baker the chap was a lunatic 😅
Holy shit it's baby Jack Bruce!
and his enemy Ginger.....
@@elektriktomikmusiktechnik3092ginger didn't like when jack changed from standup bass to fret supposedly, that's when friction started.
Gotta love this, Jack and Ginger with shades, Mod style 😎
Took me a minute. Started watching the video without seeing the credits and then there he was.
A very young Ginger Baker on drums. Love the jam and the over emphasized rocking moves, being made by everyone in the band and the dancers. A wicked 60's video. So cool!
That kicks ass! Bond really swings!
Agreed. I love this song!
Coolness factor 100! That organ - and Bond's pipes!!!
Only blues band without a lead guitar , respect!
They did when they first formed, but then ditched it! Their lead guitar guy? John McLaughlin!
Notice, Mahavishnu, John McLaughlin, clapping right next to Jack Bruce… If they would have let him have his guitar, be a different story
The first record Jack made after Cream split was Things We Like, a jazz record with McLaughlin and Heckstall-Smith, plus Jon Hiseman, drummer of Colosseum. Polydor freaked and made him release Songs for a Tailor first, and even then TWL was issued cut price with a horrible cover of Jack eating bangers and mash with his hands.
It was cool seeing Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker in it.
Awesome. RIP Graham Bond and Jack Bruce.
RIP all of them!
A rare glimpse into the genius of the Beatles. John adding “It’s much too COMMON for me” and Ringo picking up the beat and rhythm and then filling in a classic beat. Absolute genius on display.
In 1965 the band appeared as themselves in the film Gonks Go Beat, where they played two songs including "Harmonica".
Gonks go Beat, a film that introduced some and re-established others. My song still appears on screen from time to time.
WOW! this is awesome. I think this is the youngest ive seen clips of Ginger Baker and Jack Bruce. This song rocks!
Cool song… Never heard it before. I had seen a brief clip of the video, it’s pretty hilarious - everybody’s spazzing out - no doubt that the director’s behest. RIP, all you legends
My favorite song harmonica player in an rnb band rip gram bond got hit by a train in 72 what a talent
Was in 74.
Jack Bruce was a kid..around 1963...
It rocks! Those drums.... godspeed!
Priceless!!All we need is Dick Dale for Beach Blanket Bingo.Love these kitsch 60s movie songs .Ginger and Jack are having a whale of time.
Solid Gold Video !
Great sound of the Hamon organ and harmonic
i love this stuff ! it's the thread of what became what we started listening to , blues rock , r and b , rock
Rest in piece ginger you fucking legend
I saw an interview where Charlie Watts said the GBO was The Band in London in the mid sixties.
Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker ❣️2/3 of Cream
AKA 66%
Also 66.6666666R
Graham has been totally overlooked..his legacy goes on through other bands unnoticed...shame
John Lord of Deep Purple credits Graham Bond as his influence.
I have this insane piece on my playlist just for its historical interest.
Little Jack Bruce! High off his ass and lovin' every minute lol The whole G.B.O. is high on this one 😎😲
It's actually a very groovy tune!
What a great band!!
I'd like to see this movie!

This is Phenomenal 🌟‼️
How come I can only give this one thumbs up?
Graham Coxon brought me here! Haha, this is cool.
Fantastic !
Ginger baker has waves on his head.
This Graham Bond video is campy Amazing
wow
I came here for Jack and Ginger, stayed for Graham’s organ solo (as well as Jack and Ginger)
Long live ginger baker
Killer tune Daddy O
This is literally the only good thing about this movie.
It must have been pretty awkward for Baker to have to beg Bruce to join Cream after kicking him out of Graham Bond Organisation.
I doubt he had to beg. It was Eric’s idea
Ginger begging Bruce? I doubt it.
the word awkward did not exist at this time , we coined it in '78 to describe twats like you
uffff..el origen el germen ... de lo que comensaria toda una revolución cultural los simiente de todo un acontecimiento musical que revolucionó al planeta☮️✌️☮️
This is so great
A scene from Gonks Go Beat.
Needs to be much much longer
Musically it sounds very advanced for 1965.
These boys are rocking on this one. 👊
Oh there cooking with gas now man, like craaaaazzzzyy, good grooves here
若鮎のように跳ねるヤングジャックが素敵です。
何十年も前の映像なのにカラーで綺麗！
日本だとシャボン玉ホリデーのようなコミカルな印象です。
以前はもっとロングバージョンがありましたが、これだけでも
貴重で有難いです。
Thank you God, I mean Beware of Mr. Baker that lead me to this hit!
This is great.
Giner Baker is my spirit animal.
Good meeting of players.
This is one of my favourite drumming tracks ever. Ginger may have been a nutter but what a drummer
Супер энергия..
Thanks for posting, bro. Beware Mr. Baker brought me here.
Ginger baker on drums just spotted
One of the best things I've ever seen!
Love it.
Better Then Ever
Ginger swings!
Carry On Taking Smack
Questionable advice!!
Aside from the Carnaby St.,/Fab Four scene taking most of the oxygen ,there existed a pulsing London netherworld of R&B , 'Northern Soul, and Delta Blues.Graham's band was the critic's, and fan fave.
Excelente R&B Mod britanico!!!
So so so so so so so rad
a few BSA Singles...They were cooler then the bike...Outstanding Snapshot...from time
You gotta be my age to appreciate that!
великолепно
those where the days😎
Wade in the water, Graham Bond Organisation - amazing! The devil's music - check it out!!!
Shame this song isn’t available on The Graham Bond Organization albums or as a 7”, probably the best bit in the whole movie 🎥 lol.
What film is this from?
@@Saint_Dismas Gonks go Beat.
@@johnchurch4705 thank you, I think I have found the whole film.
Man, I wish the 60’s could’ve stayed this way, and whatever happened to surf music?
Ah Gonks Go Beat, what a movie 🍿
I recognized Jack Bruce by his posture
GBO!
Walkin' on the sun
Proto bluesrock👌

Excellent little video and what a tune, brilliant all round, thank you for posting this 👍
I also heard it on the same documentary (Beware Mr. Baker). Why do brilliance and insanity have to be so closely related?
Who visit this video 2020?
A year later they had formed Cream....
Crazy
Absolutely amazing tune, but has anyone else noticed that the colour of Ginger's shirt changes constantly throughout the video? One minute it's cream, the next it's teal/dark blue! >_
From the cult British movie, Gonks Go Beat as I recall?
