Taylor and the Glascock brothers were schoolmates from Hatfield and had been playing together as The Juniors (or The Strangers), a band they formed in 1962.
At this point the line-up included Mick Taylor, Ken Hensley, John Glascock, and Joe Konas.
Bulldog", a Beatles track, is their best known, and both sides have been included on the compilation album, The Great British Psychedelic Trip Vol.
Tracks like "Towards the Skies" and "Time and Eternity" from their 1968 album Genesis are full of heavy ploughing Hammond organ and distorted guitar riffs and Ken Hensley's unique and rather dramatic vocals add a further dimension.
Most of the Gods' material is fairly typical late 1960s pop/rock, epitomised by songs like "Radio Show" and "Yes I Cry".
On a few tracks like "Candlelight" and "Real Love Guaranteed", there is an inkling of the heavier sound Hensley and Kerslake would propagate in their next venture, Uriah Heep.
