Talk about a convoluted history: Few bands went through as many changes in as brief a period. In just four years, 1969-73, there were five different lineups, with more than 15 musicians claiming membership at one point or another. They mashed up several different styles and released four albums on three different labels, one of which—under the guidance of one of the most highly regarded producers in rock history—is still considered in some quarters a bona fide classic. They evolved out of the remnants of a fairly well known New York group, relocated to Northern California and ended up in Massachusetts. One member in particular came out of an early progressive rock band, later spent some time in the best-selling bluegrass band of all-time, and went on to enjoy a sustained solo career playing both electric and, mostly, acoustic music.
