I believe it's JPJ also on the "Ol' Man River" keyboard taping found on Jeff Beck's astronomically important TRUTH album.

And certainly on bass on Donovan's "Season Of The Witch" along with Page on guitar, as they accompanied much of Donovan's sessions.

Fwiw.

Oh and yes, Monkey Man is still somewhere amid my all-time top 10 from the band. No question.

Didn’t know that about Donovan. He’s one of those guys that had a few great songs that were briefly part of the zeitgeist at the time.

Yup, captured a sound which somehow defined a spell for some time.

Allow me further mention as per the TRUTH album, in calling back also to Ron Wood that he, all of 21, was handpicked by Jeff to play bass on it.

He’s a family friend of my mom’s. Both were big into the meditation scene in the late 70s/80s. Incredibly nice guy
