The John Dummer Band also known as John Dummer's Blues Band, John Dummer's Famous Music Band, John Dummer's Ooblee Dooblee Band and The John Dummer Band Featuring Nick Pickett was a British blues band, of the 1960s and 70s, who "hung forever on the cusp of a major step forward, but never quite made it". It was noted for its extensive roster of members, including Graham Bond, Dave Kelly, Jo Ann Kelly, Tony McPhee and Pick Withers, and for supporting US bluesmen such as Howlin' Wolf and John Lee Hooker on UK tours.

The band was formed by drummer John Dummer (born 19 November 1944, Surbiton, Surrey). He formed Lester Square and the G.T's in 1963, and toured the UK and Germany for 2 years, before briefly leaving the music industry. He formed the John Dummer Blues Band in 1967. The original line up included Dummer (drums); Dave Kelly and Roger Pearce (guitar); Tony Walker (bass); and Steve Rye (harmonica). Walker, Rye and Pearce left and Bob Hall (piano), John O'Leary (harmonica) and Iain "Thunder" Thompson (bass) joined. The band then turned professional and Tony McPhee joined, before they recorded their first album Cabal (1968). Soon after, McPhee left to reform The Groundhogs being replaced by Adrian Pietryga for the second album John Dummer Band.

After the third album the band "drifted apart", only to reform when they discovered that their song "Nine By Nine" from their third album was #1 in France. By the next album Blue (1972) the band had reduced to a four-piece (Dummer, Pickett, Pietryga and Thompson). Oobleedoobleejubilee (1973) again included the Kelly siblings, along with Michael Evans (violin) and Roger Brown (vocals). The next album, also including Graham Bond (sax), Pick Withers (drums), Pete Emery (guitar) and Colin Earl (Foghat) (keyboards) was shelved, and the band broke up in 1974, the last album was finally released in 2008 as the Lost 1973 Album. /Wikipedia

The John Dummer Band also known as John Dummer's Blues Band, John Dummer's Famous Music Band, John Dummer's Oobleedooblee Band and The John Dummer Band Featuring Nick Pickett was a British blues band of the 1960s and 1970s that was noted for its extensive roster of members, including Graham Bond, Dave Kelly, Jo Ann Kelly, Tony McPhee, Bob Hall, John O'Leary and Pick Withers, and for supporting US bluesmen such as Howlin' Wolf and John Lee Hooker on UK tours. The band was formed by drummer John Dummer (born Anthony John Dummer 19 November 1944, Surbiton, Surrey). He formed Lester Square and the G.T's in 1963 with Chris Trengove (alto sax & vocals) and Elton Dean (tenor sax, later of Soft Machine) and toured the UK and Germany for two years.

Dummer formed the John Dummer Blues Band in 1965. The original line-up was John Dummer (vocals, harmonica), Roger Pearce (guitar) and Pete Moody (bass) - both recruited from London R'n'B band The Grebbels – plus Bob Hall (piano) and Dave Bidwell (drums). Moody later left to be replaced by Tony Walker (bass) and his sister Regine Walker joined Dummer as a second vocalist. The featured guitarist was Tony 'Top' Topham, the original Yardbirds guitarist. The band changed its line-up and began a regular Sunday afternoon residency at the Studio 51 Club in London's West End. Dummer had moved onto drums, and Dave Kelly and Tony McPhee joined as guitarist/vocalists, with Iain "Thump" Thomson (bass) and John O'Leary (harmonica). Dave's sister, Jo-Ann Kelly, was also a regularly featured vocalist at these sessions. The band picked up a following at the club with visiting artists such as John Mayall, Keef Hartley, Champion Jack Dupree, Long John Baldry, Duster Bennett and Alexis Korner.

The band was signed to Mercury Records and their first album, Cabal, was released in 1968. Dave and Jo-Anne Kelly and Tony McPhee were featured artists, and the band was the same as had regularly played the Studio 51 Club. Tony McPhee left the band shortly after to re-form The Groundhogs. The second album, John Dummer Band, featured Dummer, Hall, Thomson, Dave and Jo Ann Kelly (vocals), with a new lead guitarist Adrian "Putty" Pietryga from The Deep Blues Band from Bristol. This band toured extensively in Britain and Europe for two years. By the third album, John Dummer's Famous Music Band (1970), Dave Kelly and Bob Hall had left to be replaced by Nick Pickett (guitar, violin and vocals), Pietryga and Thomson remained being augmented by Chris Trengove (alto sax).

After the third album the band "drifted apart", only to reform to record again when their instrumental "Nine By Nine", featuring violinist Nick Pickett, was number 1 in France. The 1972 album Blue, released as the John Dummer Blues Band, featured a cover by Roger Dean, whilst the band had shrunk to a four-piece blues-rock band, comprising Dummer, Pickett, Pietryga and Thomson. The band's fifth album, Oobleedooblee Jubilee (1973), released as John Dummer's Oobleedooblee Band, had a country music style whilst the line-up again included the Kellys, along with Michael Evans (violin) and Roger Brown (vocals). The band's final album, recorded in 1973, included Graham Bond (saxophone), Pick Withers (drums), Pete Emery (guitar) and Colin Earl (Foghat) (keyboards), but the album was shelved, and the band broke up in 1974. This final album was eventually released in 2008, as the Lost 1973 Album. /Wikipedia

Personnel: John Dummer (drums); Dave Kelly (guitar, vocals); Jo-Ann Kelly (vocals); Adrian Pietryga (guitar); Thump Thomson (bass); Bob Hall (piano).

This UK band came into being in 1965, evolving from the Muskrats and the Grebbells, and lasted until the early 70s, surviving numerous personnel changes. The line-up included prominent British blues artists such as pianist Bob Hall, guitarist Dave Kelly and his sister Jo Ann Kelly, Mike Cooper, and Tony McPhee. The band backed touring American artists John Lee Hooker and Howlin’ Wolf, and recorded albums for Mercury and Vertigo between 1969 and 1973. Drummer John Dummer went on to work with English pop vocal group Darts in the mid-70s. In recent years all Dummer’s albums have become much sought after items in the collectors’ market and currently carry very high prices. ~AllMusic
