Description
Survival Research present a reissue of
Judas Jump”s Scorch, originally released in 1970. Prog-rock supergroup Judas Jump was formed by saxophonist
Alan Jones, following the demise of
Amen Corner, with future
Status Quo keyboardist/vocalist
Andrew Bown and future
McCartney/
Clapton/
Pete Townshend drummer
Henry Spinetti, who had both been in
Herd with
Peter Frampton. At the heavy, hard-rocking end of prog, Judas Jump”s prominent woodwinds and occasional Mellotron yielded the distinctiveness that is all over this compelling debut LP, but despite featuring at the Isle of Wight festival and making the front cover of NME, Judas Jump broke up by 1971, rendering Scorch a lost classic.
