Capturing a fuly matured lineup, the record finds Auger expanding his fusion language - bridging jazz sophistication, funk-driven rhythm, and soul-infused songwriting with the clarity and fire that defined his early ’70s work.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eThough Auger’s roots lie in the lineage of hard-swinging jazz organ and the improvisational fire of the ’60s British scene, he has never been an artist content with tradition. With Second Wind, he moves further into a hybrid language that fuses rhythm with harmonic depth and groove, without sacrificing sophistication. His playing is expansive yet precise, translating the electricity of live performance into a studio work that breathes with immediacy.\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003eAt the heart of this era of Oblivion Express is the telepathic rapport among its members. Vocalist Alex Ligertwood (in one of his earliest major recordings before Santana fame) brings a soulful intensity that feels both grounded and forward looking. Second Wind contains tracks that have become deeply significant in Auger’s discography - original compositions Second Wind, and Truth to name a few - but it was Auger's high octane revisioning of Eddie Harris' Freedom\u003cspan class=\"bcTruncateMore\"\u003e Jazz Dance, (adding new lyrics to the original instrumental) that genuinely broke barriers. The track became a DJ friendly classic and highlighted the groups deeply original approach.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe rhythm section of Barry Dean and Robbie McIntosh balances weight and fluidity, giving Auger the space to stretch across Hammond organ, Rhodes, and keys with characteristic boldness. Their co lective sound is one of seamless motion: jazz inflected lines swe ling into rock-driven crescendos, funk-leaning grooves locking with vocal hooks, moments of quiet clarity emerging between bursts of improvisation.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSecond Wind stands as a pivotal moment in Auger’s discography: a record that bridges the exploratory spirit of his earlier projects with the more groove-oriented approach that would soon bring international attention. More than five decades later, it remains a vivid document of a band carving out its own language. Music born of instinct, collaboration, and a restless desire to push beyond the expected\"\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArtist : Brian Auger's Oblivion Express\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLabel : Soul Bank Music (distributed by Strut)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ecat no : SBM021LP\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cspan style=\"color: rgb(255, 42, 0);\"\u003eRELEASE DATE : 27th February 2026\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e","brand":"Tobira Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48372256178426,"sku":null,"price":4874.0,"currency_code":"JPY","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0305\/1637\/9780\/files\/win1_e66b4686-bfbc-4801-a8a9-538ccc603432.jpg?v=1771925842","url":"https:\/\/tobirarecords.com\/id\/products\/brian-augers-oblivion-express-second-wind-lp","provider":"Tobira Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
