Music Review: Quicksilver Messenger Service - Live at the Fillmore: June 7, 1968

I'm not alone feeling Quicksilver Messenger Service's 1969 Happy Trails is a definitive artifact of the late '60s San Francisco sound as performed by the definitive line-up of QMS. Before the arrival of keyboardist Nicky Hopkins and singer/songwriter Dino Valenti in the band's next incarnation, Quicksilver was best known for the dual guitars of Gary Duncan and John Cipollina, along with the bass work of David Freiberg before he moved on to join Jefferson Airplane and Paul Kantner's subsequent projects.
