Happy Birthday Harvey Mandel

Forums:

Today is Harvey's 76th birthday. He is a good guy & a  great guitarist. A Woodstock Hero, He is best known for playing in Canned Heat, with John Mayall, Charlie Musselwhite, & the Rolling Stones. He appears on the "Black & Blue"  album & you can hear him on "Hot Stuff". When Mick Taylor left the band he auditioned  with the band but they decided to keep their lineup all English.

I think he is the best psychedelic/blues guitarist we have.

I 1st met him when I attended his 40th birthday where he played with his band in an Art Gallery that  was South of Market & got raided by the  SFPD.

I 1st bought his album "Cristo Redentor" when it was released in 1968.

Also good friends with Pete Sears Nick Gravenites and the Snak Crew !!!  Freak Freely Harvey coolheart
