Biography

Top-level guitar blowout in the form of a Hawaii live recording featuring 4 great musicians, ex-Raider Drake Levin among them. Long, intense jams on a mix of covers and originals, the total impression being a fine blend of vintage Quicksilver and Sly & the Family Stone. Essential to any fan of west coast acid rock jam bands. Great cover, and a cool poster that's included with the classy (bootleg) reissue. The band was formed for this concert while Drake Levin and Joel Christie were vacationing in Hawaii. The festival was a big deal with several bands (incl Little Feat) and an estimated crowd of 55.000. The recording and release of the LP wasn't pre-planned but happened as a consequence of the band's terrific performance. Christie was formerly with Orange Colored Sky and together with Levin plays on Lee Michaels' 6th LP, while Dale Loyola play on the Hook LP. I've been unable to document any other recordings of the superb lead guitarist Jimmy McGhee.
