Haboob – Haboob (1971)
Jimmy Jackson can be heard on albums by Amon Düül II , Embryo, Utopia, Doldinger’s Passport and Eberhard Weber, but this was a stab at his own band.
Very unusual mix of blues, funky-jazz with acid rock, avant-garde, and space rock. Jackson’s choir-organ is prominent in the mix of Powell’s acid guitar and Green’s adventurous drum arrangements. Tracks like “Sooloo” are very strange with intense interplay as musicians feed of each other and create disturbing and spacey atmosphere.
Very cool and unique album, too bad it was the only one from Haboob.
