Colosseum in Bath

Colosseum are a British jazz-rock band formed in London in 1968 by drummer Jon Hiseman. Their music pairs rock songwriting with jazz improvisation and progressive arrangements, heard on albums including Those Who Are About to Die Salute You, Valentyne Suite and Daughter of Time, and in songs such as “Walking in the Park.” Colosseum recorded their 1971 album Colosseum Live at Manchester University and the Big Apple in Brighton, preserving the extended performances that shaped their concerts. The classic lineup reunited for shows in 1994, including a filmed performance in Cologne.
