Album Notes & Community Reviews

Mostly recorded at the Fillmore East and West, this second album is widely considered a definitive document of the San Francisco psychedelic sound. The side-long rendition of 'Who Do You Love' showcases John Cipollina's distinctive, tremolo-heavy lead guitar and the group's pioneering approach to collective acid-rock improvisation.
