Jodo was a short lived but powerful British hard-rock band from the early '70s with connections to Deep Purple, Green Bullfrog, Jasper, and Killing Floor. Featuring the ace guitar playing of Rod Alexander plus two lead singers -- one white (Bill Kimber) -- one black (Earl Jordan) -- their music blended heavy-rock, blues and proto-metal. In 1971 they released their sole self-titled album, produced in London by Derek Lawrence (Deep Purple, Wishbone Ash) and engineered by Martin Birch (Black Sabbath, B.O.C). For some strange reason, the album never saw a UK release, being available only in the US and New Zealand and housed in a cryptic packaging -- the cover shows a man with a bicycle, without band photos or band details. This is the first band-sanctioned reissue. 24-bit domain remaster including insert with liner notes by Austin Matthews (Shindig!) and rare photos as well as download card.
