[VulturesAwait]

Ducan as such a hugely underrated guitar player.

[Dappycow]

Thanks for posting... over the pond here we never got the chance to see these guys... oh how I wish I had... please take me back to '67, let me get back on the bus :)

[SoberAllmanBrosFan]

[andrewtournavitis]

Many thanks for posting.

This one is also from Filmore West as Fresh Air. LP : THE LAST DAYS OF FILMORE

I thought I saw him once down on Bourbon St.

Playin in bar for beans

hanging out with gypsies an' tramps

scorin dope an'haulin' amps

wearin' those designer jeans...Last Train to xrds...

[MinniMoose11]

Dino was wild & cool... this sounds great but would've been better with John

[axecalibore]

This is actually a clever "rock" reworking of "Hoochie Coochie Man" The lyrics are very similar.

Hendrix also borrowed Hoochie Coochie Man for for part of Voodoo Child. 2 versions of that one. One was "Slight Return". Makes things confusing.

[posthumanhero]

the studio version features horns and is rather mannered......this versions better......there's even a better version floating around bootlegs which features an amazing extended delay-loop effect by cippolina.

[axecalibore]

I ran this movie as a projectionist in 73, and this became my favorite song by Quicksilver. I hadn't heard it since. This is the best, tightest version of the 3 on You Tube. -The guitar solo especially.

[kcolpaer]

My favorite, along with "Fresh Air". The source for this particular clip isn't identified, but is it from the 1972 documentary, "Fillmore" (which also includes a rendition of "Fresh Air")?

[karmices]

Yes, this is from the last days of the Fillmore movie. There is also an LP box set that was put in in 1972 of this and "Fresh Air" being performed.

What I would like is nothing more from you people. If you don't bring me into your lives I'm gone. Everything I've been saying is in responce to what YOU's  say to me.

I agree Duncan's "You Don' Know" is classic. Love that tune.

Let's leave it at that.

Happy Trails

"He's sent each of us books in private email.

[darrenfinizio]

Nice try. Keep it up check out esteembpo + com for social media marketing. gfh

[bobbycoltrane]

Well obviously you didn't get out much, because one of the great rock icons, Dino Valente had a world-wide following with Quicksilver Messenger Service. Lets hear it for Dino, Duncan, David, Greg, Nicky and John!

[bobbycoltrane]

This could be the best song ever. Love this version of the band as well. This song perfectly displays Gary Duncan/Dino Valente musical connection.

[zeofilo]

J belive that it filmed version of this great song that if is possible to find on "Last days at Fillmore " CD and LP.

Music as this is real fantastic!!!!!!

[roadrocket7]

Great clip and a showcase for the great

Gary Duncan. Notice he is playing John

Cipollina's famous Bat Wing SG; John let

Gary use it for QMS's set on this last gig.

[6749er]

That's right he is playing John's guitar-Wish Cip was there-Wish Dino never got into the act-He destroyed that great band.

Still haven't met anyone who like me, was in SF & saw QMS all the years before Dino, who think they were better with him.

Duncan was/is Hot & him & Cip toghether were Amazing-They sure didn't need that lame posing ego tripping Dino-Dino is why John left with David to soon follow.

Sad-We Loved the pre-Dino QMS in SF

[6749er]

Well we all have our opinions but just for FACTS sake the first 5 man lineup from 1965-67 didn't do any QMS records.

Murry left after summer of 1967 so are you talking about the 4 man band as first lineup?

Lot of people who don't know QMS make that mistake. If so Shady Grove has no Duncan so not 1st or 2ed lineup.

Maybe you don't like John Cippollina's guitar?

Would rather listen to Dino sing than Cip play?

You ever see the first line up or the 4 man band live?

[ailijev]

Does anybody know what is the discography house they signed for the "Comin' thru" original album?

[karmices]

Capitol Records was the only label to realease the original Quicksilver albums 1968-1975.

[Abacus70000]
