Live At Fillmore West 1969 (CD)
Across the inside of the CD booklet for this album is written 'Remembering A Night In The 60s' and, although it is intriguing, it is somewhat an understatement. 'A' Night? It must have been in truth one of 'The' nights of the 60s, as it captured the classic line up of The Fish just before they fell apart. For this particular night they were also joined by an array of West Coast pals guesting from the Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane to make it a really memorable night. Recorded in January 1969 at the Fillmore West; along with the Avalon Ballroom the venue was one of the most frequent places on their home territory to play. In fact the band was splintering at the time as bassist Bruce Barthol has left to go to England to form Formerly Fat Harry, and David Cohen and 'Chicken' Hirsh were to depart a month later, making this gig a last hurrah amid what must have been a substance-fuelled party atmosphere.
