#1088 Quicksilver Messenger Service - Happy Trails
So John Cipollina wanted to do some guitar solos, so they they laid down some Bo Diddley-inspired backing and off he went. And sometimes it blow up (midway through When Do You Love), and sometimes it smolders effectively (the first minute or two of Where Do You Love), and sometimes it just plain rocks (the big bass on Which Do You Love), but mostly it's meandering noodling and obnoxious stereo moves, the kind of thing people picture when they think of Grateful Dead, acid rock folded in on itself and right on down the navel. Probably a solid soundtrack for tripping your balls off, but there's not enough structure to make this a satisfying journey the rest of the time 3/5
