The Hell's Honkies Tape Club was founded in May 1972 for the express purpose of archiving the music played in the San Francisco ballrooms between 1965-1971. It is more important than ever to revisit this music and pass it on to the next generation. Don't forget to play it LOUD. Where did this music come from? Mostly from our old reels. The music was transferred to a computer using a Delta DI/O converter. The Sons of Champlin, Country Joe and the Fish, A.B. Sky, and Aum sets all came from first generation reels of FM broadcasts. Many other sets came from now defunct radio station archives that I first contacted in the mid-1970s. Not one note of music in San Francisco Nights Version 2.0 comes from commercially bootlegged material although a few things are from acetates. |

| 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. |
