It was a night to remember, the great Harvey Mandel, King of the psychedelic blues rock guitarists with a top flight band backing him up at Biscuits & Blues, San Francisco. In the Snake crew were Pete Sears on keyboards (Rod Stewart, Jefferson Starship), Billy Johnson on drums (Santana, Patti LaBelle), Steve Evans on bass guitar (Coco Montoya, Elvin Bishop), Jose Najera (Santana, Quicksilver Gold), and Michael Borbridge (Country Joe McDonald) on percussion. There were 3 guest artists on other songs, Roberta Donnay on vocals (Dan Hicks), Joli Valenti on vocals (Quicksilver Gold) and Mick Martin on vocals and harmonica (Mick Martin and the Blues Rockers, NPR blues show). They all tore the packed house down, as you can see from this clip from one of Harvey's favorite songs, Bud Monster. It's obvious to Harvey Mandel fans why he likes this one! Look for a live CD from this show too. What a treat. Enjoy!
