Copperhead
Copperhead
July 1, 1973 · Record Plant Sausalito
John Cipollina formed Copperhead in 1971 after leaving Quicksilver Messenger Service, and by 1973 the band had one album out on Columbia. They closed the Record Plant's 72-Hour Concert marathon on Sunday, July 1, sharing the night's bill with the Chambers Brothers, the Pointer Sisters, and Malo. Donahue's schedule notebook places the band in that Sunday lineup, confirming both the date and the Record Plant Sausalito venue. The lineup that night: Cipollina on lead and Hawaiian guitar, Pete Sears on bass and keyboards, Gary Philipps on vocals and guitar, Jim Murray on harmonica, David Weber on drums. Sears would go on to join Jefferson Starship; Cipollina died in 1989, ranked by Rolling Stone among rock's 100 greatest guitarists.
