Strut Records presents a fresh look at Oblivion Express, the 1971 album that marked Brian Auger's shift into a new musical frontier. After years spent shaping the sound of British jazz-soul with the Trinity, Auger stepped into the new decade with a leaner, electrified ensemble and a renewed sense of purpose. This record captures the moment that transformation took shape. Oblivion Express launches Brian Auger's groundbreaking early-'70s fusion sound. Features the original powerhouse rhythm section of Barry Dean and Robbie McIntosh, defining the early Express identity. Includes standout tracks like "Dragon Song" and "Total Eclipse," showcasing the band's shift toward a tighter, more urgent jazz-rock approach.
