Hiseman and Clarke had played in Colosseum together and formed Tempest in the beginning of 1973. For the band's first, eponymous album (originally called John Hiseman's Tempest), the line up was completed by Allan Holdsworth on guitar and Paul Williams on vocals and keyboards.
Later in Tempest's brief history, they were joined by Ollie Halsall, who had begun playing guitar with progressive rock band Timebox. With two guitarists, the group played a number of shows including a June 1973 show at Golders Green Hippodrome, released as a bootleg called Live in London 1974. By the time a second album was recorded, 1974's Living In Fear,Tempest was down to a trio, consisting of Hiseman, Clarke, and Halsall; reportedly Holdsworth didn't want to play alongside a second guitarist. The band broke up soon after.
In 2007, a double cd anthology was released entitled, Under the Blossom which featured remastered editions of the 2 studio albums, plus 2 previously unreleased bonus tracks. It also included the famous 1973 BBC live recording of a concert in Golders Green, which featured both guitarists Allan Holdsworth and Ollie Halsall. (in his first appearance with the band)
