QUICKSILVER MESSENGER SERVICE - Hawaii 1970 (Reissue w/ 24-page Photo Booklet) - 3LP - Vinyl [OCT 3]

3LP - Limited Edition Black Vinyl Set. Includes 28-page booklet packed with previously unreleased photos from the era.

Quicksilver Messenger Service (QMS) was a pioneering psychedelic rock band formed in San Francisco in 1965, during the height of the counterculture movement, this 3LP set features their now legendary Hawaiian 1970 concert, it was recorded by the Grateful Dead's mobile; as a result, the sound quality is superb.

This set is significantly different to the March, 1970, show at "The Old Mill Tavern", with more of the new songs making it into the repertoire which included only one early piece, "Pride Of Man" from the group's debut, as well as "Mojo" that would wait for another two years to be notched in the studio, and "Warm Red Wine" that seems not to have been recorded properly at all.

Combined with a 28-page booklet packed with previously unreleased photos from the era. Supplied from the Gary Duncan Archive exclusively for the vinyl edition. makes this the perfect QMS. Though often overshadowed by bigger names of the era, Quicksilver Messenger Service remains a cult favourite, celebrated for their role in shaping the psychedelic rock movement and their masterful musicianship. Their legacy endures as a key part of San Francisco's musical golden age.

This very special vinyl edition and 24-page photo booklet of the legendary Hawaiian 1970 concert will be a fantastic addition to any QMS fan's collection.
