The band that became Quicksilver Messenger Program originally was conceived being a rock vehicle for folk singer/songwriter Dino Valente (b. Nov. 7, 1943, d. Nov 16, 1994), writer of “GATHER.” Surviving in SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA, Valente had discovered guitarist John Cipollina (b. Aug. 24, 1943, d. May 29, 1989) and vocalist Jim Murray. Valente’s friend David Freiberg (b. Aug. 24, 1938) became a member of on bass, as well as the group was finished with the addition of drummer Greg Elmore (b. Sep. 4, 1946) and guitarist Gary Duncan (b. Sep 4, 1946). Because the band had been come up with, Valente was imprisoned on the medication charge and he didn’t rejoin Quicksilver until afterwards. They debuted by the end of 1965 and performed across the Bay Region and the West Coastline for another two years, accumulating a large pursuing but resisting presents to record that were adopted by such SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA acid rock co-workers as Jefferson Aircraft and the Pleased Deceased. Quicksilver finally agreed upon to Capitol toward the finish of 1967 and documented their self-titled debut record in 1968 (by this time around, Murray had still left). Happy Paths, the 1969 follow-up, was documented live. Following its discharge, Duncan still left the music group and was changed for Shady Grove (1970) by United kingdom program pianist Nicky Hopkins. By enough time of its discharge, however, Duncan got returned, alongside Valente, producing the group a sextet. This edition of Quicksilver, prominently offering Valente’s tracks and lead vocals, lasted just a year, where two albums, Simply for Appreciate and HOW ABOUT Me, were documented. Cipollina, Freiberg, and Hopkins after that left, and the rest of the trio of Valente, Duncan, and Elmore employed replacements and lower another handful of albums before disbanding. There is a reunion in 1975, producing a brand-new album along with a tour, and in 1986 Duncan revived the Quicksilver name for an record that also highlighted Freiberg on history vocals.
