NOTES

I had recently arrived in San Francisco when, in the fall of 1965

I conceived of assembling what I described then as "the first Electrified Symphony Orchestra."

My 18th birthday had just passed and I possessed only modest abilities as a musician

but, being prone to such crazy notions, the concept seemed perfectly reasonable

this was the Haight-Ashbury of the mid-sixties, after all!

A few months later a stable musical ensemble somewhat resembling my original conception had come into existence

What I had imagined would be an "orchestra" of a dozen-or-so musicians proved in practice to be unmanageable

Instead, a coalition of five instrumentalists from various musical traditions

rock, classical, jazz, folk and blues—emerged as the core group

For what was essentially a reconceived rock band, the instrumentation was extremely unusual

comprising some combination of violin, oboe, standup bass, guitar, bouzouki, flute, organ, drums and percussion

All of the melodic instruments were modified for electric amplification

The Orkustra's brief day in the sun did not allow an opportunity to record a formal album

However, some recordings of the band's practice sessions and live performances were made

These precious few artifacts have been carefully restored and compiled

by Mexican Summer into a comprehensive double LP album
