Jon Mark and Johnny Almond first came to notoriety as part of the John Mayall Band on the 1969 "Turning Point" album which contained the all-time classic rock gems "Room To Move" and "California". After one more album with Mayall "Empty Rooms", the two decided to branch out and play the kind of jazz-blues-rock sound that they felt more comfortable with. The Mark-Almond Band original foursome included Tommy Eyre on piano and Roger Sutton on bass, with Almond adding vibes, congas and percussion to his already crisp Sax and flute playing. Jon Mark's vocals and guitar completed the drummer-less concept they had learned from Mayall, giving it their own twist and subtlety. The Ghetto was a cut from their first lp, called "Mark-Almond" and released in 1971, which also contained the KSHE Classic "The City". Sit back and listen to some fine musicianship!

Not to knitpick, but Room To Move is actually a fast blues. California is closer to Jazz than Rock. Nevertheless, The Turning Point is an important album, and (Room To Move) was my inspiration to master the harmonica! Mayall - The Source.

I am fortunate to have Mark-Almonds complete works, including their earlier collaborations with John Mayall and Sweet Thursday. My favorite album is "To The Heart", although I really like all their material. Very talented band members as well, such as Tommy Eyre who played in Joe Cockers Grease Band and as a session keyboardist for many famous artists.Also Billy Cobham. I am glad this music lives on in the hearts and minds of many.

Totally agree with you -they were right on the mark with those first 2 albums-others have some great songs but, to me, not quite as complete a work as these.Thanks for your comment.

Totally agree about their lack of recognition but that can be said for so many other musicians too. Just as with our parents, I am appreciating things more now than I did when younger. Not sure if it is maturity or just stopping and taking the time (but that may be an element of maturity). Anyway, thanks for taking the time to comment-that makes it even more worthwhile sharing this video and song. Hoops

I saw these guys live a few times. Truly exceptional. They toured with this absolutely manic jazz drummer by the name of Danny Richmond. Radio and life was populated by many great bands like these guys - and I wonder if we appreciated it back then?
