Brand X
Brand X was a British jazz fusion band formed in London in 1974, renowned for its intricate instrumental music that blended jazz improvisation, rock structures, and funk rhythms, featuring key members such as drummer Phil Collins, guitarist John Goodsall, bassist Percy Jones, and keyboardist Robin Lumley.[1][2] The band emerged during the height of the jazz-rock fusion movement, initially as a side project for Collins amid his commitments with Genesis, and quickly established a reputation for technical prowess and experimental soundscapes through early albums like Unorthodox Behaviour (1976) and Moroccan Roll (1977), both released on Island Records.[3] These works highlighted Goodsall's fluid guitar lines, Jones's innovative bass techniques, and Lumley's atmospheric keyboards, contributing to Brand X's cult following among progressive and fusion enthusiasts.[3][4] Active primarily from 1974 to 1980, Brand X released a series of albums including the live recording Livestock (1977) and Masques (1978), before disbanding amid lineup changes and shifting musical priorities.[3] The group reformed in 1992 with a core trio of Goodsall, Jones, and drummer Frank Katz, producing Xcommunication (1992) and Manifest Destiny (1997), which incorporated modern elements like sampling while retaining their signature complexity.[3] A final reunion in 2016 led to live performances until 2020, but the band's activities ended permanently following Goodsall's death from pneumonia on November 10, 2021, at age 68.[5][6]History
Formation (1975)
Brand X was founded in London in 1975 by bassist Percy Jones and guitarist John Goodsall as an instrumental jazz fusion project, evolving from initial jam sessions in 1974 that initially featured a more vocal-oriented funk lineup including drummer John Dillon, second guitarist Pete Bonas, and vocalist/percussionist Phil Spinelli.[7] Following a stylistic pivot toward improvisational jazz-rock fusion inspired by artists like Miles Davis, the band underwent changes, with Dillon departing due to the shift away from vocals, leading to auditions for a new drummer; notable candidates included Bill Bruford, who was unavailable, before Phil Collins—then the drummer for Genesis—was recruited around early 1975 on the recommendation of Island Records executive Danny Wilding.[7][2] Keyboardist Robin Lumley, a friend and collaborator of Goodsall and Jones from prior sessions, joined the core lineup shortly after the founding, solidifying the group's emphasis on complex, improvisational structures during early rehearsals at Island Studios in Notting Hill.[7][2] These sessions, starting in early 1974, focused on developing a signature sound blending jazz improvisation with rock elements, though the full quartet with Collins was not formalized until mid-1975. Collins balanced his commitments by participating in Brand X during breaks from Genesis touring.[2] The nascent band secured management through Tony Smith's Hit & Run company, leveraging Collins' connection to Genesis, which facilitated their signing to Charisma Records in 1975 as the act "Brand X," named after a placeholder term from Lumley's session work.[8][9] This deal, arranged at Collins' behest, provided the organizational foundation for the group's activities without immediate recording commitments.[9]Early years and initial releases (1975–1978)
Brand X's early years were marked by the release of their debut studio album, Unorthodox Behaviour, on June 18, 1976, following recording sessions in September and October 1975 at Island Studios in London.[10] The album featured the core lineup of bassist Percy Jones, guitarist John Goodsall, keyboardist Robin Lumley, and drummer Phil Collins, who contributed to select tracks amid his commitments with Genesis.[6] This instrumental jazz fusion effort showcased the band's improvisational style and technical prowess, drawing from rock and jazz influences to establish their presence in the progressive music scene.[10] In 1977, Brand X expanded their catalog with the live album Livestock, recorded during performances at Ronnie Scott's in London in September 1976 and at Hammersmith Odeon and the Marquee Club in August 1977.[11] Capturing the band's energetic improvisational performances, it highlighted the rhythm section's interplay and Goodsall's guitar work, serving as a document of their evolving stage presence.[12] That same year, their second studio album, Moroccan Roll, emerged as a breakthrough, released in April 1977 and peaking at number 37 on the UK Albums Chart.[13] Featuring tracks like the upbeat "Malaga Virgen," it blended fusion grooves with accessible melodies, broadening their appeal in the jazz-rock genre.[14] The band's initial tours solidified their reputation, beginning with UK dates in 1976 supporting Unorthodox Behaviour, including a residency at Ronnie Scott's and appearances at festivals like Reading.[15] In 1977, they undertook their first extensive US tour from May to July, promoting Moroccan Roll and Livestock with drummer Kenwood Dennard filling in for Collins.[10] By 1978, Brand X returned to the UK for a month-long tour backing Masques, their third studio album released that September, which introduced keyboardist Peter Robinson and drummer Chuck Burgi due to Collins's reduced involvement.[16] Notable performances included a support slot for Genesis at the Knebworth Festival on June 24, 1978, where Collins joined onstage for percussion on select numbers, drawing an audience of over 80,000.[17] This period of lineup stability through 1977, followed by transitional shifts, underscored Brand X's adaptability while maintaining their core fusion sound.[10]Product and line-up changes (1979)
In 1979, Brand X released their fourth studio album, Product, on September 14 via Charisma Records, marking a period of significant experimentation in the band's sound and structure.[18] The album featured two distinct parallel lineups, reflecting divergent creative visions within the group: a more accessible ensemble comprising guitarist John Goodsall, bassist John Giblin, keyboardist Robin Lumley, and drummer Phil Collins on tracks such as "Don't Make Waves," "Soho," "Not Good Enough - See Me!," "Wal to Wal," and "Ha! Ha!"; and a more experimental configuration with Goodsall, bassist Percy Jones, keyboardist Peter Robinson, and drummer Mike Clark on tracks including "Dance of the Illegal Aliens," "And So to F..," and "Taking the Edge Off."[19] These sessions took place in shifts at Ringo Starr's Startling Studios from April to July, yielding material not only for Product but also for the subsequent release Do They Hurt? in 1980.[20] The decision to employ dual lineups stemmed primarily from internal tensions over musical direction, exacerbated by label pressure from Charisma to produce more commercially viable, song-oriented material, which clashed with bassist Percy Jones's preference for the band's instrumental jazz fusion roots.[20] Additionally, Phil Collins's growing commitments with Genesis limited his availability, prompting the inclusion of Mike Clark to provide fresh percussion approaches and maintain momentum during recording.[18] Goodsall's compositional contributions dominated the album, penning or co-writing five of its eight tracks, which underscored his central role but also highlighted emerging strains as the band navigated these shifts away from the cohesive style of prior releases like Masques (1978).[19] Supporting Product, Brand X embarked on a UK and North American tour from late September to October 1979, featuring a blended live lineup of Goodsall on guitar, Jones on bass, Lumley and Robinson on keyboards, and Collins on drums and vocals, enabling extended improvisational sets that drew from both studio ensembles' aesthetics.[18] This configuration allowed for dynamic performances, including appearances at venues in London, San Francisco, New York, and Toronto, as well as a BBC TV spot on The Old Grey Whistle Test on October 9.[18] The tour's emphasis on fusion improvisation masked underlying fatigue from scheduling conflicts and creative divergences, foreshadowing further instability in the band's original incarnation.[20]Hiatus and dissolution (1980–1991)
The release of Do They Hurt? in 1980 marked the end of Brand X's initial run, serving as the final album from their 1970s era with a notably reduced role for drummer Phil Collins, who contributed to only two tracks amid his growing commitments elsewhere.[21][22] The band officially disbanded in 1981, driven by escalating creative differences among members, ongoing disputes with their label and management under Tony Smith of Hit & Run Music, and the pull of individual solo endeavors—most prominently Collins' intensifying focus on Genesis, which demanded his primary attention.[23][9] During the ensuing decade-long hiatus, core members pursued independent paths in music and related fields. Guitarist John Goodsall relocated to Los Angeles and established himself as a prolific session musician, collaborating on diverse projects including production work with Zoo Drive and contributions to Toni Basil's hit album Word of Mouth (1982).[24] Bassist Percy Jones, based in New York, developed his distinctive fretless bass style through experimental solo recordings throughout the 1980s, which later coalesced into the album Cape Catastrophe (1990).[25] Keyboardist Robin Lumley moved to Perth, Australia, in the early 1980s, shifting toward television production while maintaining session work and production credits on jazz-fusion releases, such as Jack Lancaster's Skinnigrove Bay.[26][17] Brand X produced no official reunions, tours, or new material between 1980 and 1991, with the period characterized by complete dormancy as a collective entity.[6] This inactivity aligned with the broader waning of jazz fusion's commercial viability in the 1980s, as the genre's intricate, instrumental complexity yielded ground to the raw energy of punk and the synth-driven accessibility of new wave, redirecting listener preferences toward simpler, more immediate rock forms.[27]First reunion (1992–1999)
In 1992, Brand X reunited after a 12-year hiatus, spearheaded by guitarist John Goodsall and bassist Percy Jones, who assembled a core trio with drummer Frank Katz to revive the band's jazz fusion legacy.[20][28] This reformation marked a shift toward a leaner, more streamlined ensemble compared to the band's expansive 1970s lineups, focusing on intricate interplay between Goodsall's MIDI-enhanced guitar work, Jones's fretless bass lines, and Katz's dynamic drumming.[29] The reunion was fueled by the duo's ongoing collaborations during the hiatus, including Goodsall's session work and Jones's projects with artists like Tony Williams, which kept their fusion sensibilities sharp.[20] The group's first release under this revived configuration was the studio album Xcommunication in 1992, serving as a bold comeback that blended classic Brand X complexity with modern production elements like MIDI sampling.[30] Recorded with additional contributions from keyboardist Christopher J. Clark and percussionist Scott Weinberger, the album featured tracks such as "Xanax Taxi" and "Kluzinski Period," showcasing an updated fusion sound that incorporated electronic textures while retaining the band's signature rhythmic propulsion.[28][29] This effort was distributed through the independent label Ozone Music and received praise for revitalizing the genre, though it achieved modest commercial reach.[31] Following the album's release, Brand X embarked on tours across Europe and the United States from 1993 to 1997, performing at venues like Ronnie Scott's in London and various U.S. jazz clubs to reconnect with fans and introduce their evolved sound.[6] These outings emphasized live improvisation and Goodsall's extended guitar solos, adapting 1970s material alongside new compositions to highlight the trio's chemistry.[32] In 1996, they captured a live performance at the Roxy Theatre in Los Angeles, later released as Live at the Roxy, which documented the band's energetic stage presence during this period.[33] By 1997, the lineup expanded with the addition of keyboardist Franz Pusch and multi-instrumentalist Marc Wagnon on MIDI vibes, enabling a fuller sonic palette for the studio album Manifest Destiny.[34][35] Released on Bucky Ball Records, the album included tracks like "Stellerator" and "Virus," exploring denser arrangements and electronic influences while maintaining the core trio's foundational grooves.[36] This release solidified the reunion's creative output but faced challenges from internal tensions.[37] The reunion concluded in 1999 when Goodsall departed amid disagreements over the band's artistic direction and management, leading to the group's second disbandment.[6] Despite the split, the 1990s era reaffirmed Brand X's enduring appeal in jazz fusion circles, bridging their classic period with contemporary experimentation through a series of focused recordings and performances.[20]Second reunion and final activities (2016–2020)
In 2016, Brand X reformed for a second reunion, led by founding members guitarist John Goodsall and bassist Percy Jones, who were joined by keyboardist Chris Clark and drummer Kenny Grohowski.[24] Although core member Robin Lumley contributed to the band's legacy during this period, he had retired from live performances and did not participate in the touring lineup.[9] The reunion focused on celebrating the band's classic material, drawing lessons from the 1990s reformation to emphasize a tight core group dynamic. The band released their first new recording in two decades with the live album But Wait... There's More! / Live 2017, captured during early reunion shows and highlighting their improvisational prowess.[38] This double-disc set featured extended performances of tracks from the band's 1970s catalog, showcasing Goodsall's intricate guitar work, Jones's innovative bass lines, and Grohowski's dynamic drumming alongside Clark's atmospheric keyboards. From 2016 to 2019, Brand X undertook extensive reunion tours across the United Kingdom and United States, performing sold-out shows that emphasized improvisational live sets spanning their entire discography.[39] Notable appearances included high-profile festivals, with the band delivering energetic renditions of fusion classics that captivated longtime fans and introduced the music to new audiences. In 2020, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic forced the postponement of planned tour dates, interrupting the band's momentum and marking the end of their active performing period during this reunion.[40]Post-reunion and disbandment (2021–present)
Following the conclusion of their 2020 touring activities, Brand X ceased all performances and recordings, with no further group endeavors announced. Although the band never issued a formal disbandment statement, the deaths of key members marked the effective end of the group.[6] Guitarist John Goodsall, a founding member and central figure in Brand X's sound, died on November 10, 2021, from pneumonia, at the age of 68.[5] His passing, coming shortly after the band's final shows, left a profound void, as Goodsall had been instrumental in the 2016 reunion lineup. Keyboardist Robin Lumley, another core founding member, passed away on March 9, 2023, at age 75, following a long illness and sudden heart attack.[26] Lumley's death reduced the original trio—Goodsall, Lumley, and bassist Percy Jones—to Jones as the sole surviving core member, further solidifying the band's inactivity.[41] In the absence of new projects, Jones and the estates of Goodsall and Lumley have overseen the band's legacy through its official website and social media channels, maintaining archival content and fan engagement without plans for revivals.[42] While discussions of potential archival releases or tribute events surfaced in fan communities, none have been realized as of November 2025.[43]Musical style and influences
Jazz fusion characteristics
Brand X's core sound in jazz fusion is characterized by a seamless integration of jazz improvisation with the driving energy of rock and the syncopated grooves of funk, creating a dynamic and technically demanding style that prioritizes instrumental interplay over vocals.[20] This blend is evident in their predominant use of extended instrumental tracks, which allow for spontaneous exploration while maintaining rhythmic propulsion, distinguishing the band from more rigidly structured progressive rock ensembles through a heavier emphasis on live jamming and collective improvisation.[20] For instance, tracks like "Malaga Virgen" from their 1977 album Moroccan Roll showcase odd time signatures, contributing to the genre's hallmark complexity without sacrificing accessibility.[44] Central to this sound are the extended solos from guitarist John Goodsall, whose fluid phrasing combines melodic lyricism with rapid, jazz-inflected runs, often weaving through funk-driven rhythms to build atmospheric tension.[20] Complementing Goodsall is bassist Percy Jones, renowned for his innovative fretless techniques, including thumb-positioned playing and percussive articulations that add a liquid, expressive layer to the low end, enhancing the fusion's textural depth.[45] Keyboardist Robin Lumley further enriches the palette with electric piano and synthesizer layers, providing swirling, atmospheric textures that evoke both cosmic expanses and intimate grooves, as heard in pieces blending Rhodes warmth with analog synth swells.[46] The band's rhythmic foundation varies with drummers, highlighting contrasting approaches within the fusion idiom: Phil Collins delivered precise, groove-oriented patterns that locked in the rock-funk elements with unyielding drive, as on early recordings like Unorthodox Behaviour (1976), while Kenwood Dennard's contributions leaned toward a freer, more jazz-centric style, emphasizing polyrhythmic freedom and improvisational elasticity in later lineups.[47] Overall, these elements culminate in song structures that favor episodic builds—shifting from tight riffs to open jams—fostering a sense of discovery that underscores Brand X's enduring appeal in jazz fusion.[20]Evolution and influences
Brand X's early development in the 1970s drew from the improvisational and progressive rock traditions of the Canterbury scene, while incorporating jazz fusion elements inspired by Miles Davis's Bitches Brew and the expansive sound of Weather Report.[9][48] The band's core members, including guitarist John Goodsall and bassist Percy Jones, sought to blend these roots with electronic jazz innovations from Chick Corea and Tony Williams, creating a distinctive fusion style marked by technical complexity and rhythmic experimentation.[9] In 1979, the band's dual lineup introduced freer jazz elements through drummer Kenwood Dennard's contributions on the album Product, diverging from the rock-oriented precision associated with Phil Collins's earlier involvement.[20] This configuration, featuring Goodsall, Jones, keyboardist Robin Lumley, and Dennard, emphasized improvisational grooves and jazz phrasing, reflecting Dennard's background in straight-ahead jazz with artists like Pat Martino.[49] The result was a more fluid, less structured sound compared to the tight ensemble playing of prior releases.[50] During the 1990s and 2010s reunions, Brand X modernized its approach on albums like Manifest Destiny (1997) and Timeline (2000), incorporating electronic elements such as MIDI vibes and keyboards alongside funk influences reminiscent of acid jazz.[34] These works also nodded to world music through rhythmic diversity and global percussion textures, evolving the band's palette while retaining its fusion core.[51] Over its career, Brand X traced an arc from the accessible, groove-driven fusion of Moroccan Roll (1977), with its blend of rock riffs and jazz harmonies, to the experimental diversity of Product (1979), and finally to the reflective, layered introspection of later releases like Timeline.[52][50] This progression highlighted a shift toward broader sonic exploration while honoring foundational influences.[9] Key external inspirations included the technical virtuosity of Return to Forever and the Mahavishnu Orchestra, which shaped Goodsall's fiery guitar work and the band's emphasis on intricate interplay.[53] These groups' high-energy fusion informed Brand X's commitment to pushing instrumental boundaries throughout its active periods.[54]Members
Core members
Brand X's core members—bassist Percy Jones, guitarist John Goodsall, and keyboardist Robin Lumley—formed the band's foundational creative nucleus, contributing to its music across major periods from its inception in 1975 through its early years, lineup changes, hiatus, and reunions.[55] These three musicians shared overlapping tenures, often co-writing and performing on key recordings while adapting to shifting lineups that included temporary drummer Phil Collins.[56] Their collaborative roles emphasized instrumental interplay in jazz fusion, with Jones providing rhythmic and melodic bass foundations, Goodsall leading melodic structures, and Lumley handling harmonic arrangements.[24] While Jones and Goodsall remained active through the band's final activities in 2020, Lumley's performing involvement ended earlier. Percy Jones (born December 3, 1947, in Llandrindod Wells, Wales) served as Brand X's bassist from 1975 to 1980, 1992 to 1997, and 2016 to 2020, emerging as a co-founder alongside Goodsall and Lumley.[57] Renowned for his innovative fretless bass technique, Jones employed a distinctive three-finger right-hand approach combined with harmonics, glissando, and vibrato to create elastic, vocal-like lines that expanded the instrument's expressive range beyond traditional jazz-rock conventions.[56] His contributions were pivotal in defining the band's sound during its formative 1970s era and subsequent reunions, where he anchored complex rhythms on albums like Unorthodox Behaviour (1976) and Xtrax (2020).[58] Outside Brand X, Jones pursued solo work, notably as half of the experimental duo Tunnels with guitarist David Torn, releasing albums such as Amidst a Pastime (1991) that explored ambient and improvisational textures.[59] As of 2025, Jones remains the sole surviving core member following the deaths of his bandmates.[60] John Goodsall (February 15, 1953 – November 10, 2021) was Brand X's lead guitarist and a primary co-founder, active from 1975 to 1980, 1992 to 1999, and 2016 to 2020 and recognized as the band's most prolific composer.[61] His style seamlessly blended rock's drive with jazz's harmonic sophistication, crafting ethereal, melodic solos and riffs that propelled tracks like "Malaga Virgen" from Livestock (1977).[24] Goodsall's compositional input shaped the band's evolution through its hiatus and reunions, contributing songwriting to eight studio albums and maintaining continuity in live performances.[5] After Brand X's 1999 disbandment, he joined progressive rock outfit Atomic Rooster for their 2001–2008 revival, applying his fusion sensibilities to heavier material on albums like Atomic Roost (2008).[62] Goodsall passed away in 2021 at age 68, shortly after the band's final tour.[63] Robin Lumley (1948 – March 9, 2023) handled keyboards for Brand X from 1974 to 1979, serving as co-founder, arranger, and frequent producer who enriched the band's lush, layered soundscapes.[64] His arrangements integrated synthesizers and piano to support improvisational frameworks, notably on Moroccan Roll (1977), where he co-produced and shaped the album's fusion-jazz contours.[9] Lumley's production role extended Brand X's influence, as he briefly stepped away in 1978 to focus on external projects before a short return in 1979; he retired from live performances thereafter and did not participate in the 2016–2020 reunion.[41] Beyond the band, he collaborated as a producer and arranger with artists including Kate Bush on her debut album The Kick Inside (1978) and Bryan Ferry on The Bride Stripped Bare (1978), applying his jazz sensibilities to pop and art-rock contexts.[63] Lumley died in 2023 from heart failure at age 75.[65]Additional and touring members
Throughout its history, Brand X featured several additional and touring members who contributed to specific albums and live performances without long-term commitments to the core lineup. Phil Collins served as drummer from 1975 to 1977 and then as drummer, percussionist, and vocalist from 1978 to 1979, providing key performances on early albums including Unorthodox Behaviour (1976), Moroccan Roll (1977), Product (1979), and Do They Hurt? (1980), while balancing these duties with his primary role in Genesis.[2][17] He also made guest appearances during the 1992–1999 and 2016–2020 reunions, featuring on live recordings such as But Wait… There’s More! Live 2017.[66] Kenwood Dennard joined as drummer in 1977, replacing Collins for the North American tour and contributing to the live album Livestock (1977) on tracks like "Nightmare Patrol," infusing the band's sound with his avant-garde jazz influences.[2] He later participated in the 2016–2017 reunion tours and appeared on But Wait… There’s More! Live 2017.[66] Chuck Burgi played drums on the 1978 album Masques and supported the European and North American tours that year, stepping in after Dennard's departure.[17] Morris Pert contributed percussion from 1976 to 1980, appearing on albums such as Marscape (1976), Moroccan Roll (1977), Masques (1978), Product (1979), and Do They Hurt? (1980), as well as on the 1979 tour; his role diminished due to increasing session work elsewhere.[2][17] He also featured during the 1992–1999 reunion on select recordings.[66] In the 1990s reunion, Frank Katz handled drums from 1992 to 1996, recording on Xcommunication (1992) and Manifest Destiny (1997) and joining tours in 1992–1993 and 1996–1997.[66] During the 2016–2020 reunion, Kenny Grohowski took over drums from 2017 to 2020, supporting tours through 2019 and contributing to the live album Locked & Loaded (2018).[66]Discography
