Keep On Driving by Don 'Sugarcane' Harris, released on MPS in 1970.

...The rocking Keep On Driving features Kriegel’s funky guitar and a jazzy exploratory solo by Taylor, with Harris sticking to the melody. Blues On The Moon goes extraterrestrial with Oxley bowing his amplified cymbals before Harris gets into a down an’ dirty blues. Which Way Is The Bathroom is a swinging minor key modal jazz masterpiece in which each band member solos, and they all shine. The smooth-flowing 6/8 tempo of Desiree highlights Harris’ romantic side and includes an outstanding Taylor solo. On the hard-swinging Almost Broke, all three front men have their say, and the down-home funk of Coitus Interruptus contrasts with the emotional jazz reminiscences of Remember The Past. Classic Harris combining jazz, blues, and rocking soul. - MPS

After reading Richard Williams' obituary for #TonyOxley I am recalling two different late-70s trio performances in #Glasgow : at Glasgow Film Theatre with pianist Howard Riley and bassist Barry Guy, then 18 months later at the Third Eye Centre with painter / saxophonist Alan Davie and violinist Phil Wachsmann.
