   About John Cipollina
Bats Flying The Official John Cipollina Memorial mySpace page is just getting started and we're hoping to find many of John's fans and friends here. Please feel free to send us a friend request and/or leave your comments about John Cipollina!

Born in Berkeley, California on August 24, 1943, John Cipollina represents the archetypal San Francisco 1965-1975 musician.

As a founding member of Quicksilver Messenger Service, John went on to perform and record with dozens of bands , blazing a trail from rock to blues to jazz over a brilliant twenty-five year career.

John Cipollina's guitar sounded like no other. His unique resonance touched people in places they didn't know existed. His signature sound will stand alone for all time as a part of the musical thread the San Francisco Bay Area has wrapped around the world.

John passed away from a lifelong respiratory ailment on May 29, 1989. He left behind a great musical contribution for his worldwide audience to enjoy. For those of us who knew him, we share the memory of a truly wonderful person, whose being so perfectly reflected the magic in his music.

In 1995 John's legendary amp stack was donated to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame , ensuring him a place in music history.

All my writing is about the recognition that there is no single reality. But the beauty of it is that you nevertheless go on, walking towards utopia, which may not exist, on a bridge which might end before you reach the other side.

Stu Heydon 3rd Degree Self
Windsor-born Stu Heydon is a veteran bluesman with his first CD as a leader. He began his career playing with Detroit’s legendary Bobo Jenkins, to whom this CD is dedicated. A charter member of the Windsor/Detroit scene, he was also a long time member of the Wild Child Butler band after he re-located to Windsor. So he knows about the blues. Although he has since moved to Carmel CA, he recorded much of this album at Grant Avenue Studio in Hamilton with our A-List players: Prakash John & Jordan John are on bass & drums,Mike Branton on rhythm guitar, Les Smith on harp and Michael Fonfara/Bob Phillips/Dennis Keldie on keyboards. The result is a solid program of original songs. “Middle Of The Night” is a chugging opener that reminds me of Coco Montoya or John Mayall. “Closing Time”, at a similar tempo, is another one of the highlights – a packed seven minutes that goes by too quickly. The B3/lead guitar sound he likes reaches its peak on the title instrumental, a jazzy delight. The slow blues “Fooled Myself” features a lengthy solo by the unheralded Les Smith although solo may not be the right word. Heydon simply sings over the hard-working band, much as a jazz singer might. It’s unusual but works very well here. As a singer, he

Thanks for the ad. I'm a big John Chipollina fan and in the day wore out Happy Trails and Shady Grove. Been re-listening to the Dinosaures and Raven. What a remarkable guitarist and artist John was. He made those SG's scream and was a unique musical force.
