Popis - QUECKSILVER MESSENGER SER:
QMS' debut 1968 album is generally thought to be their best, and it is! Happy trails has always been the best seller, but this by far is their most accessible and accomplished. This album includes the superb 'Dino's Song', written by singer Dino Valenti, who was absent from recordings as he'd been busted. He returned for later albums. Crucial to the success of 'QMS', however, was the presence of twin lead guitarists, the legendary and awesome, John Cipollina and Gary Duncan. The rapport they display on the magnificent instrumental, 'Gold And Silver' is to die for. The longest track, 'The Fool', is less accessible but repays repeated listening. It doesn't rely as much on the fluid lead guitar lines of previous tracks and it comes as a surprise when a vocal bursts in after six minutes. The remaining songs are great covers of 'Pride Of Man' and the funkier 'Too Long' and an impressive original 'Light Your Windows'. If you were to own one QMS album, then this has to be the one...AND IT HAS NEVER SOUNDED BETTER!!!
