Comment
Notes on the Bands:
For those of you who are new to this music, here are some facts on the bands that you might or might not be familiar with:
* 13th Floor Elevators: a band from Texas with a big Bay Area following.
Rocky Erikson was their leader and has achieved cult status these days.
* Captain Beefhart: Ry Cooder had already left the band by the time this
tape was made.
* Mother Earth: their female singer was Tracy Nelson who still can belt
out the blues these days. Check out her new CD.
* Oxford Circle: don't know much about them except that they were on a
lot of early posters including the "Skull and Roses" poster.
* The Sons of Adam: an LA band on many early Avalon posters.
* The Great Society: Grace Slick's original band.
* The Charlatans: one of the most important bands of that era, but
forgotten by history.
* Cream: we included them because they influenced so many bands after
their Fillmore appearances.
* Steve Miller Blues Band: this is the original band with Boz Scaggs.
* Quicksilver: this is the 4 man band not the original band with Jim
Murray.
* The Daily Flash: another L.A. band that appeared on many early Avalon
posters.
* Country Joe & The Fish Jam: check Out Bill Graham talking to the crowd.
