They really looked down on rock and pop,\" he explains. \"I had people cross the road when they saw me coming, I was persona non grata at Ronnie Scotts because of themusic we were doing and the clothes we were wearing\".\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHappily - audiences of the time didn't take the same dismissive approach, Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger \u0026amp; The Trinity toured the US and had exploded onto American TV screens as guests of The Monkees, and also scored hits across Europe's pop charts via the singles `This Wheels On Fire' \u0026amp; `Save Me' - but simultaneously appeared on the UK's `Top Of The Pops' in the same month as headlining major European Jazz Festivals - a feat no other act has equalled since.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBetween 1967 and '70, Brian Auger experienced a four year run of unprecedented creativity - 1967's Open with Julie Driscoll, 1968's Definitely What!, 1969's Streetnoise again with Driscoll and 1970's Befour - taking the Hammond Organ in new directions with their thrilling fusion of club R\u0026amp;B, jazz and psychedelic cool, engaging both the underground and the mainstream, and bringing the group chart success in the UK and Europe. \"I look back on my years with The Trinity as a period of discovery,\" Auger concludes. \"I didn't know what would happen or where it would take me but we were breaking down barriers and going someplace new.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eBRIAN AUGER \u0026amp; THE TRINITY - FAR HORIZONS\u003c\/h3\u003e \u003cdiv data-bt-autogen\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTracklist:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e*** Streetnoise\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTropic Of Capricorn\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCzechoslovakia\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTake Me To The Water\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Word About Colour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLight My Fire\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIndian Rope Man\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhen I Was A Young Girl\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFlesh Failures (Let The Sunshine In)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEllis Island\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn Search Of The Sun\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFinally Found You Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLooking In The Eye Of The World\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVauxhall To Lambeth Bridge\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAll Blues\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI've Got Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSave The Country\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e***  Befour\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eI Wanna Take You Higher\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePavane\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNo Time To Live\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaiden Voyage\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eListen Here\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJust You Just Me\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e***   Definitely What!...\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Day In The Life\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeorge Bruno Money\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFar Horizon\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eJohn Brown's Body\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRed Beans And Rice\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBumpin' On Sunset\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIf You Live\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDefinitely What\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e***  OPEN\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIn And Out\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIsola Natale\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBlack Cat\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLament For Miss Baker\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGoodbye Jungle Telegraph\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTramp\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWhy (Am I Treated So Bad)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA Kind Of Love In\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBreak It Up\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSeason Of The Witch\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ol\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"503","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":50786493727016,"sku":"406254805402","price":37.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0933\/3833\/7576\/files\/4139033-2932631.jpg?v=1763991458","url":"https:\/\/waterloorecords.com\/products\/auger-brian-trinit-far-horizons-cd-406254805402","provider":"Waterloo Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
