Some words on this issue: QUICKSILVER MESSENGER SERVICE: “Maiden of the Cancer Moon” (Psycho Records) Hard to come by Quicksilver semi-legit 2 LP that came out in 1983 with the collaboration of the late John Cipollina. This is the definite Quicksilver document, stellar sound quality and filled with rare live appearances from the late 1960s. The performances all date from 1967-1968, a period during which Quicksilver consisted of lead guitarist John Cipollina, rhythm guitarist and singer Gary Duncan, bassist David Freiberg, and drummer Greg Elmore. Quicksilver as a unit were not so much singer-songwriters as they were virtuoso players and creative interpreters and stylists. They were not the greatest of vocalists or composers. True, but in Cipollina, with his tremolo-laden leads, they had one of the great San Francisco guitarists of the '60s. Here, the band is playing some of there greatest compositions in concert. By their second album, Happy Trails (March 1969), they had given up trying to get across in the studio and just recorded live, where they were far more comfortable. They were also more comfortable using blues and rock standards like "Back Door Man," "Smokestack Lightning," and "Who Do You Love" as jumping-off points for extended jams, or extrapolating the jazz standard "Take Five" into "Gold and Silver." Some performances age better than others -- many will find the long drum solo in the concert version of "Gold and Silver" uninspired -- but by and large, Quicksilver's live reputation stands up well. This 2 LP set is just a killer. Cipollina rules throughout and again proves he is one of the all-time greatest to have caressed the six strings. Every track is a winner.
