Velvert Turner Group United States
Biography
Velvert Turner was apparently a friend of Jimi Hendrix's, and the Hendrix vibe on the album Velvert Turner Group is almost overpowering, right down to the fisheye photo on the back cover. Turner's got great guitar tone and a playing style quite similar to Jimi. The songs are also similar to laterperiod Hendrix, circa First Rays of the New Rising Sun, but with some keyboards added. In fact, "Three O'Clock Train" starts out with a riff very close to "Izabella," then sounds more like "51st Anniversary" in the body of the tune.
