Brian Auger and the Trinity was a British band led by keyboardist Brian Auger. His duet with Julie Driscoll, the Bob Dylan/Rick Dankopenned "This Wheel's on Fire", was a number 5 hit on the 1968 UK Singles Chart.[1]

The song also reached number 13 in Canada.[2]

Brian Auger and the Trinity and Driscoll's joint album, Open, billed as Julie Driscoll, Brian Auger and the Trinity, reached number 12 in the UK Albums Chart the same year.[1] 1969's double LP Streetnoise was also credited to the same Driscoll/Auger/Trinity group name.

The group and Driscoll opened for Led Zeppelin at the Rose Palace in Pasadena, California on 2 and 3 May 1969.[3]
