GOLD - Mission Rock (World in Sound 1014) 'Mission Rock' was recorded live in San Francisco 1971 with excellent studio sound quality! The music ranges in the early Quicksilver/Santana/Big Brother & The Holding Company style, with 68 minutes of completely unreleased material! Gold in 1971 was one of the hottest bands in S.F. still without an LP. Bill Graham was booking the band to open shows for Ten Years After, Big Brother and the Holding Company and Mike Bloomfield with the hope and the support for an LP release. Now finally after 32 years here is the album Graham would have liked to hear. Country Joe McDonald took a personal interest in the band and worked with them on a number of projects. On this CD he wrote 2 of the 13 songs, which he had never performed with Country Joe & the Fish.
The very talented guitarists Ed Scott/Joe Bajza often remind one of that Quicksilver double el. guitar sound and founded Gold in 1967/68. The great vocalist on 'Mission Rock' is Robin Sinclair and she was in the same style as Janis Joplin and was an experienced professional who had recorded two albums on Cadet Concept/Chess as part of a group called Saloom, Sinclair & the Mother Bear. The music itself is very powerful in rhythm section with congas, two acid jamming guitars and vocals a la Janis that make this CD to an absolute must for all San Francisco Sound fans. This splendid cd contains a fine bio, great photos and underground S.F. posters and was produced with friendly support of Country Joe McDonald.
