Description
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 Townsend 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.
