Snake Language

Gary Duncan was a founder member of the legendary San

Franciscan band Quicksilver Messenger Service. Between

1965 and 1975 the band played literally thousands of

concerts and attracted massive critical acclaim and along

with The Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane were one

of the most influential bands to come out of San Francisco

in the sixties. Gary played on many albums released by

Quicksilver Messenger Service including Quicksilver

Messenger Service, Happy Trails, Quicksilver and Solid

Silver. Although the band effectively split in the mid

seventies Gary has quite often along with David Freiberg

reformed Quicksilver Messenger Service and toured the

world usually with Jefferson Starship which also numbers

David Freiberg as a member.

For a period from the mid eighties through to the mid

nineties and beyond Gary Duncan led his own band

Quicksilver and released a number of albums. These

albums are now being made available again once more at

the behest of Gary Duncan having been unavailable for

some time.

This album is collaboration between Gary Duncan of

Quicksilver messenger Service fame and the band Crawfish

of Love. The albums features tracks that Gary had been

performing with Quicksilver including maiden Voyage and

Senor Blues alongside other material such as the title track

of the album Snake Language which is split into two parts.
