Quicksilver Messenger Service

[morf]

Just found out this band existed, I really like their music. Anyone else heard of em?

[zillo]

Absolutely. Cippolina was ourageous, and the rest of the band as well. I particularly enjoy Happy Trails and the first album.

Great jamming band, lots of energy, big grooves, and good chops!

Sure, saw 'em play live a number of times ca. 1970. They were very popular back then. If you check out the old Fillmore-era poster art you'll see their name quite a bit.

One of my bands once opened for The Dinosaurs too, which featured John Cippolina and a bunch of other frickin' Bay Area hippies from sister bands.

John Cippolina is definatley a sick guitarist...sick music they made.
