    Jiva

    jiva_logoIf it wasn’t for the fact that the group were signed to George Harrison‘s Dark Horse label, it is doubtful the world would have ever been troubled by Jiva.

    The band were a traditional hard-rock lineup – bass, drums and two guitars – and their 1976 debut album was bland and undistinguished. Gary Wright’s guest appearance on keyboards added some flavour but hardly solved the problem.
