    About this album

    Shady Grove finds Quicksilver Messenger Service broadening their San Francisco sound into a looser, more roots-aware form of psychedelic rock. Released in 1969, the album sits at a turning point for the group, when the band began to temper its acid-rock reputation with country-rock colours, acoustic textures and more concise writing. The title track became the record’s best-known moment, while pieces such as Flute Song and Edward, (The Mad Shirt Grinder) show the band balancing improvisation with songcraft. It is widely regarded as one of the most distinctive late-’60s entries in the Bay Area rock catalogue.
