A banda começou em L.A., em 1967 e é considerada umas das melhores bandas de lá; misturam psicodélico, Jazz e Hard rock; muito instumental e bons solos.
A formação original era: Randy California (guitarra), Jay Ferguson (vocal e percussão), Mark Andes (baixo), Ed Cassidy (padrasto de Randi e baterista), e o tecladista John Locke. Eles foram convocados a tocar no Woodstock antes de Hendrix, mas recusaram o convite, pra ir em turnê mundial. Antes do festival, ninguém pensava que fazer parte dele seria garantia de sucesso.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!

============== NOTE ================
Sometimes to break the monotony of just playing the D chord at the very end of the song (OUTRO) I will play the following over and over even though it really isn't played. I will then end the song by striking the note on 3rd fret of the B string and let ring.
Play this RIFF over and over
E -2-3-5-3-2-- B ---------------------3~~~ end on (let ring) G ------------ D ------------ A ------------ E ------------
