Neil Hubbard

Neil Terrence Hubbard (born 24 February 1948) is a British guitarist best known for his prolific career as a session musician and band member in the rock, blues, and jazz-funk genres spanning over five decades.^[1]^[2] Hubbard began his professional music career in the mid-1960s, initially gaining prominence as a guitarist and vocalist with Bluesology, the band that featured a young Elton John in its lineup from 1966 to 1968.^[3] He soon became a sought-after session player, contributing electric guitar to the 1970 concept album Jesus Christ Superstar alongside musicians like Henry McCullough and Alan Spenner, adding a distinctive rock edge to the recording.^[4]^[5] Throughout the 1970s, he performed and recorded with high-profile acts including Joe Cocker's backing band The Grease Band, the blues-rock group Juicy Lucy, and the jazz-funk ensemble Kokomo, where he showcased his versatile rhythm and lead guitar styles.^[2]^[6] In the 1980s and beyond, Hubbard's collaborations extended to art-rock and pop, most notably with Roxy Music and solo projects by frontman Bryan Ferry, appearing on albums such as Flesh + Blood (1980) and Avalon (1982).^[3] He delivered the memorable guitar solo on Ferry's 1985 hit single "Slave to Love" from the album Boys and Girls, blending soulful phrasing with melodic precision.^[7]^[8] Additional notable sessions included work with blues legend B.B. King on the 1997 album Deuces Wild and contributions to Dexys Midnight Runners in the 1980s, solidifying his reputation as a ubiquitous and influential figure in British music production well into the 21st century.^[2]^[9]

Early Life

Childhood and Family Background

Neil Terrence Hubbard was born on 24 February 1948 in Peterborough, England.^[10]^[1] Little is publicly documented about his immediate family background, including parental occupations or siblings, though his early years were shaped by the provincial setting of post-war Peterborough, a town recovering from the economic and social impacts of World War II.^[11] As a child, Hubbard attended the King's School in Peterborough, where he boarded at Madeley House, indicating a structured educational environment that distanced him from daily family life.^[11] The local culture of 1950s Britain, marked by rationing's aftermath and emerging consumerism, provided a backdrop of modest community activities, including access to BBC radio broadcasts that brought global sounds into homes and public spaces. Peterborough's cathedral-centric heritage further influenced daily rhythms, fostering a sense of tradition amid modernization. From ages 11 to 14, Hubbard participated in community events as a chorister at Peterborough Cathedral (1959–1962), immersing him in the town's religious and cultural institutions during a period when such roles offered structured social engagement for youth.^[11] This early involvement highlighted the interplay of local heritage and broader British societal shifts, setting a foundation for his personal development before adolescence brought more focused interests.

Education and Initial Musical Interests

Hubbard attended King's School in Peterborough as a boarder, an environment that encouraged creative pursuits among students despite its structured setting.^[12] During his time at the school, Hubbard and another aspiring guitarist constructed homemade amplifiers, following detailed plans devised by a fellow boarder known for his electronics expertise, named David Wright. This hands-on project reflected their growing fascination with music and technical experimentation, allowing them to amplify their playing in the dormitories.^[12]^[11] Hubbard acquired his first guitar during these school years and taught himself to play through dedicated practice, often entertaining classmates with renditions of popular rock 'n' roll tunes such as Tommy Roe's "Sheila" and Buddy Holly's "Peggy Sue." These early sessions highlighted his initial musical interests in upbeat, guitar-driven American pop and rock influences discovered via records shared among peers.^[12]

Career

1960s: Bluesology and Early Bands

In the mid-1960s, Neil Hubbard made his professional debut as a guitarist by joining the British blues band Bluesology around June 1966.^[13] The group, formed in 1962 and rooted in the London R&B scene, had evolved into a six-piece ensemble by this time, featuring frontman Long John Baldry on vocals, Reg Dwight (later Elton John) on keyboards and backing vocals, Pete Gavin on drums, Fred Gandy on bass, and brass players Elton Dean and Marc Charig.^[13] Hubbard, drawing from his early exposure to blues influences during his teenage years, took on the role of lead guitarist and occasional vocalist, contributing to the band's energetic live sound that emphasized Chicago-style blues covers alongside original material.^[3] Bluesology's performances during Hubbard's tenure from 1966 to 1968 focused on the thriving club circuit in and around London, where they built a reputation for high-energy sets blending blues-rock with emerging soul elements.^[13] Notable gigs included a show at the Marquee Club on 25 June 1966, appearances at the White Hart pub in Southall that summer, and regular slots at venues like Klooks Kleek, which exposed the band—and Hubbard—to key figures in the UK music scene, including touring American blues artists.^[13] These outings, often supporting acts like Steampacket, honed Hubbard's stage presence and technical skills amid the competitive atmosphere of the British blues revival.^[3] By early 1968, following the departure of Dwight and internal shifts, Bluesology disbanded, prompting Hubbard to explore short-lived collaborations that broadened his stylistic range beyond strict blues-rock.^[14] He briefly joined the instrumental jazz-blues outfit Wynder K. Frog, led by organist Mick Weaver, providing guitar on their 1968 album Out of the Frying Pan and participating in live dates that incorporated Stax-inspired soul grooves and rock edges.^[15] This transition reflected the evolving UK rock landscape, as Hubbard moved toward more versatile ensembles while maintaining his blues foundation.^[3]

1970s: Grease Band, Juicy Lucy, and Rising Session Work

In the early 1970s, Neil Hubbard continued his association with Joe Cocker's Grease Band as rhythm guitarist, building on their late-1960s foundation through extensive touring and recordings. The band supported Cocker on key 1969 U.S. performances, including the Woodstock Festival, where Hubbard's solid rhythm work complemented lead guitarist Henry McCullough's solos on tracks like "With a Little Help from My Friends."^[16] Following a brief hiatus after Cocker's shift to the Mad Dogs & Englishmen project, Hubbard rejoined the Grease Band for their self-titled 1971 debut album on Shelter Records, co-writing songs such as "Laughed at the Judge" and contributing to U.S. promotional tours that showcased their blues-infused rock sound.^[17] That same year, Hubbard briefly joined the blues-rock outfit Juicy Lucy as guitarist, infusing their raw, slide-heavy style with his precise rhythm playing on the album Lie Back and Enjoy It. The band's sound drew from American blues traditions, evident in tracks like "Chicago North Western," which featured Hubbard's electric guitar alongside Glenn Ross Campbell's steel guitar during live sets on German TV's Beat-Club and UK gigs.^[18] His tenure was short-lived, ending as he pursued broader opportunities, but it highlighted his versatility in the burgeoning blues-rock scene.^[19] Hubbard's session work gained momentum mid-decade, establishing him as a reliable studio guitarist for diverse artists. He provided acoustic guitar on Donovan's introspective 1973 album Essence to Essence, adding subtle texture to folk-rock arrangements produced at Island Studios.^[20] Similarly, in 1975, he played mellow electric guitar on Pete Wingfield's chart-topping single "Eighteen with a Bullet" from Breakfast Special, helping drive its soulful, horn-driven groove to No. 7 on the UK charts alongside saxophonist Chris Mercer.^[21] A pivotal early-1970s credit came from Hubbard's participation in the original Jesus Christ Superstar concept album, recorded at Olympic Studios in London under Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice. As electric guitarist, he collaborated with Grease Band colleagues Alan Spenner on bass and Bruce Rowland on drums, contributing to the rock-orchestral blend on tracks like "Heaven on Their Minds" during intensive sessions that fused pop, rock, and theatrical elements. This exposure on the double-LP release, which topped charts worldwide, significantly elevated Hubbard's profile among producers and artists seeking his blend of blues roots and studio polish.^[4]

1980s–1990s: Roxy Music, Bryan Ferry, and Major Tours

In the early 1980s, Neil Hubbard solidified his role within Roxy Music, contributing guitar work to the band's album Flesh + Blood (1980), where he provided rhythm and lead guitar across multiple tracks alongside Phil Manzanera.^[22] This collaboration marked a shift toward a more polished art-rock sound, with Hubbard's versatile playing enhancing the album's atmospheric textures during sessions at studios in London and the Bahamas. Building on this, Hubbard featured prominently on Roxy Music's Avalon (1982), delivering guitar on nearly all tracks, including a notable solo on the single "More Than This," which helped propel the album to commercial success.^[23] His contributions emphasized lyrical phrasing and subtle dynamics, complementing Bryan Ferry's vocals in the band's sophisticated evolution. Hubbard's association with Bryan Ferry extended into solo projects, beginning with extensions from his 1970s session work but gaining prominence in the 1980s through albums like Boys and Girls (1985), where he handled guitar duties amid a roster of high-profile collaborators.^[24] A highlight was his soulful guitar solo on the track "Slave to Love," recorded early in the process at Bette Midler's soundproof room in New York to anchor the song's emotional core; the middle solo intertwined parts from Hubbard, David Gilmour, and Keith Scott, creating a layered, evocative climax that underscored the track's romantic intensity.^[7] This performance not only defined Ferry's solo hit but also showcased Hubbard's ability to blend jazz-inflected finesse with pop accessibility. Throughout the decade, Hubbard joined Roxy Music for extensive world tours in 1980–1982, supporting Flesh + Blood and Avalon with live renditions that highlighted his onstage synergy with the band.^[25] He later performed with Ferry's solo band at Live Aid in 1985, delivering a memorable set including "Slave to Love." Into the 1990s, Hubbard participated in Ferry's reunion tours from 1988 to 1995, including the Bête Noire tour and the 1994–95 outings, where his guitar work sustained the art-rock legacy amid evolving lineups.^[6] These tours reinforced Hubbard's status as a key architect of Ferry's enduring stage presence.

2000s–Present: Kokomo Reunion and Ongoing Collaborations

In the 2000s, Neil Hubbard participated in the temporary reformation of the jazz-funk band Kokomo in May 2008, reuniting with original members including keyboardist Neil Larsen and vocalist Tony O'Malley, alongside saxophonist Mel Collins.^[6] This short-lived revival featured live performances that highlighted the band's enduring soulful groove, drawing on Hubbard's signature guitar work to recapture their 1970s sound.^[26] The band experienced a more sustained resurgence starting in August 2014, when promoter Sue Martin organized a tour that led to a series of well-attended gigs across London venues such as the 100 Club and Half Moon in Putney.^[27] Hubbard contributed guitar alongside Jim Mullen, delivering contrasting solos that energized sets featuring classics like "Closer to the Edge."^[28] Subsequent performances, including at the Jazz Cafe in 2018, affirmed Kokomo's vitality, with Hubbard's playing central to their funky, collaborative dynamic.^[29] The group has remained active into the 2020s, performing at London's Pizza Express in August 2025, with further shows scheduled there in 2026.^[30] Beyond Kokomo, Hubbard maintained a low-profile presence in the music scene, with no major solo projects but enduring recognition for his earlier contributions. In a 2024 interview, Bryan Ferry reflected on recording "Slave to Love," praising Hubbard's "wonderfully soulful tone" on guitar, which formed the song's foundation and featured in a trio solo with David Gilmour and Keith Scott.^[7] This nod underscores Hubbard's lasting impact as a session guitarist, even as his activities shifted toward selective reunions and tributes.

Musical Style and Equipment

Influences and Playing Technique

Neil Hubbard's guitar playing was profoundly shaped by the blues and soul traditions prevalent in the British music scene during the 1960s, where he gained early exposure through bands like Bluesology and the Grease Band.^[6] His work in these groups immersed him in blues-rock environments, drawing from giants of the genre whose expressive phrasing informed his foundational approach.^[31] Collaborations later in his career, such as with B.B. King on the 1997 album Deuces Wild, further underscored his affinity for blues mastery.^[32] Hubbard's technique is characterized by an understated soulfulness, emphasizing clean tones and subtle string bends that prioritize feel over virtuosic display.^[26] His rhythmic phrasing often drives the groove with precision and restraint, creating supportive layers rather than dominating solos, as noted in descriptions of his "soulful tone" that anchors arrangements.^[7] This approach favors economical lines infused with emotional depth, reflecting a session musician's ethos of enhancement over showmanship.^[33] Over his career, Hubbard's style evolved from the aggressive blues-rock energy of his Grease Band era, where raw, driving riffs propelled high-energy performances, to the elegant, atmospheric lines of his Roxy Music contributions in the 1980s.^[34] In Roxy Music, his playing shifted toward sophisticated, melodic fills that complemented the band's art-rock textures, as exemplified by the iconic guitar solo in Bryan Ferry's "Slave to Love," which weaves subtle, emotive phrases into the song's lush production.^[7] Hubbard's versatility sets him apart from peers, blending blues-rooted intensity with soul-inflected finesse in a manner akin to Cornell Dupree's understated grooves, allowing seamless adaptation across genres from gritty blues-rock to polished art-rock.^[26] Unlike more angular stylists like Phil Manzanera, his soul-oriented phrasing provides a contrasting warmth, enhancing ensemble dynamics in diverse settings.^[33]

Signature Gear and Production Contributions

Neil Hubbard's preferred guitars include a 1962 Fender Telecaster and a Gibson ES-355 semi-acoustic, which he has used extensively throughout his career for their versatile tones suitable to both rhythm and lead work.^[35]^[36] These instruments are typically amplified through a Fender Twin Reverb featuring JBL speakers for a clean, articulate sound, and a Mesa Boogie cabinet loaded with Eminence speakers to add warmth and sustain when needed.^[35]^[36] He employs minimal effects, primarily a Mutron Wah/Volume pedal, to preserve a soulful, unadorned guitar tone that emphasizes touch and dynamics over heavy processing.^[36] In the studio, Hubbard's production input often involved strategic overdubbing of guitar solos to shape song structures, as seen in the recording of Bryan Ferry's "Slave to Love," where his parts were laid down early to provide a foundational soulful tone around which the track was built.^[37] This approach contributed to the layered arrangements on Ferry's solo albums, where Hubbard's guitar work helped define the elegant, atmospheric soundscapes.^[37] Over the decades, particularly during the 1980s tours with Roxy Music and Bryan Ferry, Hubbard adapted his amplifier selections to suit different environments, favoring the Fender Twin Reverb for precise studio recordings and the Mesa Boogie for the demands of live performances requiring greater projection and edge.^[36] This gear supported his soulful playing technique by delivering consistent clarity across settings.^[35]

Discography

Albums with Bands

Neil Hubbard's early contributions to band albums began with Bluesology, where he served as the lead guitarist, contributing to the group's raw blues-rock sound during their formative years in the British R&B scene. Although Bluesology primarily focused on singles like "The Beginning of the End" in 1968, Hubbard's rhythmic and lead guitar work helped define the band's energetic live dynamic and studio presence before their dissolution.^[38] With the Grease Band, Hubbard joined as rhythm guitarist and backing vocalist for their self-titled debut album in 1971, bringing a solid blues-funk foundation to the ensemble alongside Henry McCullough's leads, enhancing the group's tight interplay on tracks like "Laughed At The Judge."^[31] The album showcased the band's evolution from backing Joe Cocker to a standalone unit, with Hubbard's contributions emphasizing groove-oriented rhythms that supported the collective's soulful, improvisational style. A later compilation, Amazing Grease (1975), further highlighted these dynamics by compiling key recordings from their tenure.^[39] Hubbard's role in Juicy Lucy's debut album, Juicy Lucy (1970), featured him on lead electric and acoustic guitars, where his versatile playing—blending bluesy leads with psychedelic edges—complemented vocalist Ray Owen and the rhythm section on standout tracks like "Who Do You Love."^[40] As a core member, Hubbard helped shape the band's hard rock-blues fusion, contributing to their dynamic stage energy and the album's raw, jam-oriented group chemistry that appealed to the late-1960s underground audience.^[19] In Kokomo, Hubbard co-founded the band and provided guitar on their self-titled debut album in 1975, co-writing tracks like "Anytime" and infusing the group's sophisticated blue-eyed soul with his fluid, jazz-inflected lines that meshed seamlessly with vocalists Dyan Birch, Paddie McHugh, and Frank Collins.^[41] The album exemplified Kokomo's ensemble-driven approach, drawing from Hubbard's prior Grease Band experience to create layered, harmonious arrangements that highlighted the band's collaborative spirit in the British funk scene.^[42] Hubbard served as co-guitarist on Roxy Music's Avalon (1982), delivering subtle, atmospheric textures alongside Phil Manzanera that enriched the album's lush, sophisticated art-rock ambiance and supported Bryan Ferry's crooning on hits like "More Than This."^[43] His contributions underscored the band's refined group interplay during their mature phase, blending his blues roots with the ensemble's electronic and ambient elements for a cohesive, immersive sound.^[44] Similarly, on Bryan Ferry's Boys and Girls (1985), Hubbard played lead guitar, adding elegant, emotive solos—such as on "Slave to Love"—that complemented guest guitarists like David Gilmour and enhanced Ferry's solo band's polished, romantic sophistication.^[45] As a key sideman, Hubbard's work reinforced the album's dynamic balance between Ferry's vision and the musicians' interpretive flair, contributing to its commercial success and the band's live touring cohesion.^[46]

Key Session and Solo Recordings

Hubbard's freelance session work spans several landmark recordings, beginning with his electric guitar contributions to the original 1970 concept album Jesus Christ Superstar by Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice, where he collaborated with Henry McCullough on key tracks that helped define the rock opera's sound.^[47] In 1973, he provided acoustic guitar on Donovan's album Essence to Essence, adding subtle textures to songs like "St. Valentine Angel" and supporting the folk-rock arrangements.^[48] A standout moment came in 1975 with his mellow guitar solo on the title track of Pete Wingfield's Eighteen with a Bullet, the album's hit single that peaked at number seven on the UK charts and showcased Hubbard's soulful, understated style.^[49] His sessions with Roxy Music in the late 1970s and early 1980s yielded particularly influential results, including rhythm and lead guitar on the 1980 album Flesh + Blood, where his rhythm guitar on the single "Over You" (which reached number five in the UK) complemented Phil Manzanera's parts and contributed to the band's polished sophisti-pop direction.^[50] Hubbard also played guitar on the album's track "Oh Yeah (On the Radio)," enhancing its atmospheric groove.^[50] Hubbard contributed guitar to B.B. King's 1997 album Deuces Wild, adding blues-inflected lines to tracks like "Rock Me Baby" in collaboration with Eric Clapton.^[51] In the 2000s, he joined Dexys Midnight Runners as guitarist for their reunion, appearing on the 2012 album One Day I'm Going to Soar and contributing to their revival of soul-tinged pop. Despite his extensive session career, Hubbard has not pursued major solo albums, focusing instead on collaborative efforts, though archival references suggest involvement in uncredited 1970s demos that remain unreleased.
