Have since built a decent collection of vinyl and now CD's. Always knew Moby Grape was cool but could never find their albums. When I found Vintage, I got into the right frame of mind and listened to these songs I had never heard before. I was absolutely blown away! The best rock music came out of Bay Area in '65-69, esp '67. Although a loyal Deadhead, I gotta say Moby Grape is even better than the Dead! Thanks, Scott, for bringing this page to the world. Have a grapeful day!!

Played with a band through high school and tried to play any Grape song we could. I took my album with me to Viet Nam and played it every chance I could. Many of my navy buddies became "Grape Fans" back then. On my return to the real world in 1973 some of my belongings were lost in-transit as you have already figured out my treasured Grape album was gone forever. I was lucky enough to see them live on three occasions and nobody can ever steal that memory. Thanks for listening and Thanks to Moby Grape for all the great music. Sure would like hear the original cuts again! RT

I bought WOW! based solely on the cover (but that's the way it was in the 60's, you know?) and loved it. Believe it or not, I never heard the debut album till the 80's (I'm slow, I suppose). I wore my vinyl copy of WOW! to nothing. One day I thought of it again and went searching a local small CD store when the silver discs were just beginning to appear. Lo and behold, there was a European 2-CD import but the $40 price tag stopped me (I didn't' have as much disposable cash, even then) Now I thoroughly regret not hocking my life away and buying it. I'm very disappointed that the San Francisco Sound disc is truncated. If you know of a way to find the 2 disc import, PLEASE let me know. Thanks again. This place is fun. These guys should have been big stars! Charlie, yet another grey-headed aging hippie Cherokee boy (there are actually quite a few of us!)

I didn't care much for anything else after that. I thought that the first album has held up well for 30 years. Don't know about WOW!...haven't heard it for about 25 years. I remember the hype.

Unfortunately the last time I saw them was on the 20 granite creek tour and the band was not in very good form, but this recent show was simply amazing! Since the show I have a renewed interest in the band and their recordings. You have two recordings on your site that I'm trying to track down. The first is the cassette only "legendary grape" and the other is titled "black magic". I would appreciate any information you may have on how or where to obtain these recordings. I would also be interested in getting on your grape newsletter. thank you very much and I'll recommend your site to other grape fans.

Just have to keep comin' back over & over again. The 'First' Moby Grape album was the best thing to come out of the San Francisco music scene until The Sons Of Champlin's "Loosen Up Naturally" came along in 1969, IMHO. When the stage curtains opened at the Santa Monica Civic in July of 1967 and Moby Grape opened with, as I remember it, "Hey Grandma", I knew I would remember them more so than the Yardbirds who were headlining. Jerry Miller's musicianship, Bob Mosley's vocals and Skippy's energy and stage presence made for one of the top ten concert experiences of my life. Damn, it was a pleasure to have been part of those times! Hey Linda, who went to her prom with Skippy!!! If you see this message please get in touch with me. I knew you in North Hollywood/Van Nuys in the late 70s when your boyfriend was Gregg, who drove that 914 Porsche! I was his foreman at the awning shop, remember? Get a hold of me, Linda......Please!! -) PS-Oh what I would give for just one more 60's Moby Grape Concert

(RATING) **** (COMMENTS) I was there the last show at the fillmore in 71 shortly after the 20 granite release. I went to SF by bus just for it. slept in the bus station that night. I'll never forget it, I wasn't stoned except on the music. Grape has been my favorite band since I heard their first album. I don't know what the release date was but I know I was the first one to buy it in fresno. They only played here once and I missed it. couldn't afford $3.50 for a ticket. I heard they said they would never play fresno again. well, I'm still waiting. I have seen the grape several times through the years and I would love to again. It isn't really fair of you to ask for a favorite member of the grape when they are such a diverse group. with so many musical and personality differences. I find them all to be admirable and respected for their personal contributions to what I consider to be a great part of '60s-'70s rock. Your website is a great monument to them and I appreciate it.

I got turned onto the Grape 15 years ago and have been a fan ever since. I still feel that their debut album is one of the greatest recordings ever to be released (only wish they were given additional time to jam on some of the tunes!). Recently saw them perform at Big Boulder in the Poconos and was blown away by them. Hopefully Skip and Don will join them next time around. Please email me if anyone has a copy of the 8/9/97 show at Big Boulder. I'll be happy to trade other sixties tapes. Look forward to future news on the Grape and additional shows.

The Moby Grape albums in mint condition bring good money. Long live the Moby Grape - what a sound.

(RATING) ***** (COMMENTS) I've been visiting this site religiously for the past four months when I first discovered it. I can't believe I forgot to sign the guestbook right away, but the timing is actually great because I just saw the band at the Wetlands on the 7th. I haven't come down yet! What a treat! I didn't really know what to expect. Who would be there? Would they be "rusty"? Would anyone's talents be diminished? They played a set of close to an hour--all songs from the first album--and then said they were "just warming up", and would be back to play a longer set. That first set was good, but the second was fantastic! Jerry Miller was on fire! Several L-O-N-G solos that were incredible. Peter and Mosley's voices were as strong as ever, and the harmonies were perfect. It was just so great to be able to see these guys again, let alone to be standing about six feet away from them in this great little bar and having them sound so great. The only other time I had seen them was in '68 at the Wolman Skating Rink in Central Park, NYC, right after Skipper had left the band, and the concert was awful! I have been carefully educating my sons in the music and story of this great "lost" band. Two of them (ages 18 & 21, and huge music fans) came with me and were also blown away by Miller and loved the whole show. So I've been doing my duty with regard to the next generation! On the way off stage after this second set (which must have been close to 2 hours), Jerry Miller promised that they would return to NYC much sooner next time--I can only pray that he's right! Peace & love--eric

I'm knocked out by the entire record. At this point, I've been a professional musician-guitarist for 30 years and I'm still learning things from their records. I've been looking for the words to the 1st album since day 1. I remember "Hit Parader" or some teen magazine had them. I saw them once and that was it. Now, tonight, 30 years later, I" able to see all the lyrics. My one and only time seeing them was in Lake Tahoe, June '68. They were 4 pieces. I'm on a family cross country trip and the folks let me go to some club to hear them. Opening act from San Fran was Queen Lilly's Soap"-never heard from them again. The 2nd act was a San Fran band called Santana Blue. Guess who? Lastly though, Do you hear the bass drum pedal squeak throughout the entire 1st album. I swear I do. Let me know if anybody else does also. Keep up the grape work. All the best, Darryl Berk

I hope other Grape cd's will become available now that they own the name again. Don't know any Grape fans in this area, but would like to get with any.

I couldn't believe it when I found this page last week. I've had major changes in my life since then, though. The best was when I gave my life to Jesus in the fall of 1969. I wrote a poem back in 1995 called 17-18 which uses song titles from some of the early Grape songs. When I have more time I'll polish it and send it on to you. All for now, Wayne

The Grape was THE band for me and a lot of my fellow musician friends. Still is. their material is as powerful now as it was thirty years ago. I'm glad to hear that there is a possibility of the Grape getting out there again. If they find their way to New York, well, that is a line I plan on being near the head of. I hope that a Fender bass will find its way back into Bob's hands one day. He inspired me as a bass player, and I hope he will feel it again for himself.

Would really like to know where Skip Spence is these days. Is he still in a psychiatric hospital or out wandering the streets or what?

Their debut album was one of the best rock albums ever made. In an era of big-time, big money rock reunions it's surprising that Moby Grape has been rather overlooked. I hope all the band members are well, playing for fun, making lots of new music and that there will be a big demand for their previous music. It's still as fresh as when it was first recorded.

I first heard Moby Grape on their Columbia album where the boys were photographed wearing their hippie garb. My middle class sensibilities were somewhat rocked by the fact that one of them was extending his middle finger out as he rested his hand on his knee. Anyway, I was a Rolling Stone, Bob Dylan, Byrds, and English Beat group fan, but I'll never forget the great sounds of this band. I am looking for the best versions of their shortlived career on CD. Any reviews/suggestions? Thanks.

I found the first Moby Grape album in the "Hippie Music" section buried behind stacks of other non-sellers, and took it home w/ all my other treasures. Of course once I played it I wore out my father's stereo learning all the songs, and my affection for this music has not died to this day.

Shortening things a bit was a good call. While reading the last issue (with the Bob Mosley chat), I was taken back to the time when I first heard the Grape. I remember very vividly how passionate I was about the incredible music of the era. In particular, there were three albums that had the power to absolutely overwhelm me: "Are You Experienced?", "Sailor," and "Wow." There is so much power, beauty, anger, passion, and tension in Wow, that it's hard to take it all in. The Grape had the vocal chops to be mentioned in the same breath with the Beatles, but were better musicians. And Wow is every bit as innovative as Sgt Pepper's. How could anyone listen to a lyric like "He...awoke and told his friends things he'd seen and heard, but could not comprehend..." in that haunting (and haunted) voice and not be moved? And how could anyone listen to "Super-powered, de-flowered, over-18 Irene..." and not smile? Who before or since has combined guitar and bass to greater effect than the Grape does on "Rose Colored Eyes?" or has harmonized with more profound beauty and sadness than on "Bitter Wind?" The Grape moved me profoundly in my youth they move me still. Thanks again for a great page!

They've been such an inspiration, more so than many other more popular bands during their time. I just can't say enough. I'm quite happy that bands such as Diesel Park West see fit to continually pay tribute to this important 60's band by covering Grape tunes. Wow!!

I had a radio show on the first commercial rock station in Sweden and played Naked If I Want to as my sign off everyday. I've been trying to get ahold of a 20 Granite Creek CD.. if you can help, thanks. I think Apocalypse is a truly beautiful Grape track. I understand there's been some recent dates (an article recently appeared in one of the Swedish national daily papers about MG, surprisingly). Any news would be appreciated. Thanks and Peace, Gene

Their presence on the music scene in the 60's was much too short. Look at what they did in that short period of time.....Think of what they could have done had they been around longer. Moby Grape would have become a house hold name.

I firmly believe Jefferson Airplane lost a great songwriter and generally great guy when they swapped Skip Spence for Spencer Dryden. I have listened to the Airplane's material after the first album (which Spence drummed on), and I can conclusively say that Spence was not only a more interesting drummer but a great songwriter. Dryden seems to have contributed only two songs to any Airplane albums ("A Small Package" from AFTER BATHING AT BAXTER'S and "Chishingura (spelled right?)" from CROWN OF CREATION), and they sucked. Just two minutes of pure noise each. Now Spence wrote SONGS, folks. Good stuff. Even when he was just the drummer. I still like the Airplane, but I like their early '66 lineup (with Spence and singer Signe Anderson, who was replaced by Grace Slick) better than their later lineup. Keep up the good work! Oh, and could you maybe get some more chords for Grape songs? Thanks so much.

For some reason both their music and band members were left out in the cold and totally unappreciated (like the 13th floor elevators) while others sold out to the establishment, (airplane, dead etc.) to make big bucks and bogus music.....

Their synergy together was phenomenal! I stumbled across moby grape because WOW was being marketed as a 2/4/1 album set WOW and Grape Jam - an off-the cuff improvisational exercise. I was very cost conscious, being a kid, so a 2/4/1 deal seemed intriguing. It wasn't a popularly known band, so I was pretty sure I wouldn't be nauseated. I glanced at the back, and I saw my current heroes, Al and Mike. Done. I took it home and was immediately enthralled. These guys were in the belly of CORPORATE and still had an edge! GEE-WHIZ! favorite tune on WOW Miller's blues. IT CRANKS! I still have that album, and still listen. Love the 35mm proof liner. Sorry I can't play the 78rpm cut anymore -- Arthur Godfrey? What a rush!

Few bands before or since (and there's been a lot of "since") had the Grape's sense of melody, intensity, and outright skill." Wow" still stands as one of the greatest rock albums in history. 'He', 'Motorcycle Irene', 'Murder in my heart...', the Arthur Godfrey thing recorded at 78RPM...incredible still. Anyway, thanks. I like your page!

They are a great band and their musical influence is living on through the generations, and is having a very positive influence on people and the lives of people. I have spoken my bit, so Peace all.

I've been dabbling with the internet for about 2 years now - mostly e-mail - I'm highly mobile, and that has posed a problem. But a few days ago, I was strumming my guitar playing a Cippolina / Knopfleresque version of "Pride of Man", when I decided to see what I could find about Quicksilver on the web. Low and behold, I found out that all of my adolescent guitar heroes were on the web (even the ones that are dead!) I hit "2400 Fulton Street", found the Quicksilver homepage, and also Barry Meltons (If I ever need legal help, I now know who to contact), and now its the Grape. About a year and a half ago, I purchased the double cassette compilation put out by Columbia, and was just enthralled - not only by the music, but also by the narrative written by David Fricke. That was my tape of two summers ago! By the way "Bitter wind " is a close runner up as my fave with "Omaha".

I saw them at Wollman Rink in Central Park NYC, I think very late 60's, as a trio (one of the best live bands I'd seen - Bob Mosley, Jerry Miller, drummer?) I'd love to find a CD reissue of Moby Grape '69. Their music still holds up today (unlike many other of my 60's faves). Thanks for this page.

Great to see them playing again - they were fantastic! Wasn't there a record from some of the guys under a different name? Went to Denver in 1967 (?) to see "Moby Grape" and it was the bogus bastards - we booed 'em off the stage.

I hope I did it right. I'm looking for a replacement copy of Legendary Grape, plus information on other releases from the last 10 years. Also, why not get the band to OK Legendary Grape for CD issue? Since the production costs are already paid for, getting a CD reissue should be relatively cheap. Also, what's the skinny on Mosley's health?

Nice to see other people still enjoy GOOD music by quality musicians. I got my first grape album (MONO) when I was 13, back in' 68. Still have it. When I mention their name most people look at me funny. But when I play the CD (Have the double cd collection) everyone is impressed by the musical ability and vocals. Brings back many good memories. I play guitar and bass, and I can remember putting on that album and playing it over and over playing along with it, and thinking someday I'll play that good.

When robert plant played tacoma- Jerry was back stage....you know LZ copied lots from MG. Lots of folks remember MG and lots don't...My generation the so called "generation x" gets me, because so many people like to think they're hip and they know about music-,but when you ask them if they've ever heard about MG they always say "who????"-you are doing a great thing by having this Web page. Thank you. Hey, if you know about anyone in this area who is into the MG and playing music let me know. i have lived quite alot in 25 years-from being a suspected terrorist at 15 in JFK airport-to travels around the country-getting rides in limousines-living in New Orleans playing music with friends of the allman bros. band-and living in ecuador, SA for 4 years where my future wife lives-music has always been constant. You know, it's really strange how i met Mr.Miller-when i first came out to Seattle, I happened to be on a bus trying to find the employment office-i was asking the driver for directions when this scraggly guy told me where to go-after he gave me directions he blurted out that he was a roadie and he had worked for rod stewart, jerry miller-"jerry miller?", i asked,-the very same one (this guy's name is rob colby-he's homeless-i was too for a time after i got out here(so i relate very much to Mosley's plight) 6 months later i went to see jerry at chicago's. I also managed to meet david rae-Gordon Lightfoot's original guitarist and author of "mississippi queen" and stayed with him and his wife on bainbridge island. well I gotta go(at work)give me a call-206-623-7720.

I spent many nights between Feb 1967 and whenever listening to the Grape... Difficult to remember specifics, but in the more sober late 70's my dreams came true and I got to meet them at a gig in S. F. What a gas. They will live forever in my mind. It's amazing what you can find on the internet. This is the first time I've written to anyone's home page, but just couldn't resist when it had to do with the Grape. Thanks for the opprtunity.
15 Oct 1996 05:26:46 (NAME) Paul Nutter (EMAIL) pnutter@indiana.edu (LOCATION) Bloomington, Indiana (SONG) 8:05 (MEMBER) Don Stevenson (COMMENTS) In the Summer of 1994, I think it was July 1 to be exact, I headed out to San Jose to see my aunt & uncle. I changed planes in Salt Lake. When I boarded the plane I noticed a man in my seat. He was maybe in his early 50's. He moved over, and before I sat down I put my bag in the overhead compartment. I noticed there was a case for a fly-rod in there, I asked the man if that was his, and instant conversation! We talked about fishing, where to go, what was fun to catch, and some how we got to talking about the military. I had gotten out of the Air Force a few years ago, and it just so happens that he was in the A.F. As our conversation flowed about military life, and life in general, it drifted towards music. He asked me what type of music did I like, and I was a little nervous because we were having a great conversation and I didn't want it to stall. I told him that I liked a lot of groups from the 60's. I mentioned groups like, Buffalo Springfield, Cream, CSN&Y, Hendricks, Joplin, and many others. I noticed this gentalman starting to straighten up in his seat as I mentioned these groups. When I was finished, he asked if I had heard of a group called Moby Grape. I'm going to stop with the story right now. I've lost track of time, and have a mid-term exam in ten minutes. I'll write back and finish my story!!
Ok Scott, the mid-term is over, where was I?? Oh ya! This guy tells me that he used to play in some blues bands around the San Fransico area throughout the 60's. He goes on to tell me that he hung out with Hendrix, Garcia, Joplin, and the lot. Then he starts talking about Moby Grape and the unique sound that they had. He went on to tell me that they were just inches away from being one of the top stars of the late 60's. He told me how their first album was released the same day that the Beatles Sgt Pepper was. He went on to tell me other stories about the group and made an hour and a half flight seem like 10 min. We walked down to baggage claim together and he told me of the two C.D. set that Columbia had put out. I went out that day and bought it, and have been hooked ever since. Before we parted he gave me his business card. His name is Gordon Stevens. He still lives in San Jose, and owns a recording studio called Sonic Images. I think it's a great story on how I got hooked to the Grape, and I thought you might want to hear. Since that time, I have also shared the wealth with friends and family members. Many of my friends have bought Grape C.Ds and are still enjoying the ride. I play my Moby Grape C.Ds at least once a week in the liquor store I work at. As a matter of fact, thats the way I found your web site. I was mentioning Moby Grape to a customer last Friday, and see came in the store last night and told me of your web site. Another interesting Grape story took place last year. I had a geology class, and at the end of each class our professor would ask a rock&roll trivia question. We got to talking one day after class about music and I mentioned Moby Grape and a big smile came to his face. He said that he saw Moby Grape on one of their east coast tours in the late 60's or early 70's. I let him borrow my C.D. and he came in the next day all smiles. He said: " I'd fogotten how much good music they had." Ever since I met Gordon, Moby Grape has popped up somewhere at least four or five times a year, and every time it does the person is all smiles. Hope that brings a smile to your face. Paul (friends call me The Nutman, you to please.)
14 Oct 1996 19:14:05 (NAME) Bruce Moyer (EMAIL) multitape@pipeline.com (LOCATION) Washington DC area (SONG) impossible to pick (RATING) *** (COMMENTS) I was trying to put my finger on why I kept feeling Moby Grape was so influential to me even though they were not "BIG". Personally I never felt they were very representative of the psychedelic scene. Then I hit upon this idea: while the Band is somehow credited with producing truly "post-Beatles American music", I think the Grape did it much better. Truly American, truly rock and roll and truly original.

The "opening" acts were Sonny & Cher, the 5th Dimension, and Glen Campbell (whatever happened to them?)The headliners were the great Moby Grape. Of the hundreds of records I collected from that era, the Grape's first album still gets regular play in my house. Love your page! I'll be back!

As a guitar player who spent countless hours learning the licks off of Miller's Blues and Ain't No Use, I should be citing Jerry Miller as the favorite guy, but Mosely's hollering really gave them soul. Yeah, that's it. Moby Grape is my favorite soul band.

(MEMBER) Skip Spence (RATING) ***** (COMMENTS) Thank you very much for doing the page! Having found it very hard to get hold of Moby Grape/related music/info over the years, this has come as a real bonus for me. I'm far too young (36 now) to have seen the group or anything like that, but I first heard them when I was about 14-15, having already read about the San Francisco groups & having heard the Grateful Dead/Quicksilver/Jefferson Airplane & not really cared much for any of them, & they were & still are a total revelation. I like all sorts of music & go along 100 percent with Duke Ellington when he said that there were only 2 kinds of music, good & bad. No prizes for guessing which category the Grape fall into! One question I have to ask you is: could you possibly provide me with the catalogue # of the "Oar" cassette release? I recently enquired about which formats it was available in & was told CD only.I had an LP re-issue copy stolen many years ago & now only have a cassette player, so I'd be really grateful for any help you or anyone you know could give me with regards to this. Many thanks again, look forward to hearing from you... Richard

(RATING) ***** (COMMENTS) A few years back I passed a hole-in-the-wall tavern in North Seattle. My false teeth went flying because the marquee said "Moby Grape". I couldn't believe it - The Grape played at the first rock show I went to in Southern California (hollywood Palladium w/ Jo Jo Gunne, Albert King, and Quicksilver-something). My friend in Calif had touted Peter Lewis as the fastest guitarist in the world. This was in 1971, I think - turned out to be a Grape reunion. Lewis wasn't real fast that night but the whole band still was great. Then in Seattle, around 1991 or 92 I think, this group at this litle tavern still played their hearts out, with ten times the facility of most bar bands. I was so entranced by the guitar (Jerry Miller?) playing that I didn't hear the lyrics at all. They've not been here again, so I'm interested to hear of their current activities.

23 Apr 1996 20:25:09 (NAME) Kevin McCaffrey (EMAIL) Kvmac@aol.com (LOCATION) Seattle, WA (SONG) 8:05 (MEMBER) Skip Spence (RATING) ***** (COMMENTS) When I was 17 I attended the Monterey Pop Festival (June 16, 17, 18, 1967.) That was the first time I saw Moby Grape. They were absolutely one of the best acts at Monterey, playing a blistering set that was musically brilliant with the three-guitar onslaught and visually exhilarating because of Skip Spence. He was every bit as good a performer as Mick Jagger and the Grape electrified the crowd. The next time I saw them was about 6 months later at the Fillmore West in San Francisco. Skip didn't show up that night (Jerry Miller kept saying "He'll be here") and the show was lackluster. The opening act that night was the Jeff Beck Group featuring an unknown, spectacular, lead singer-- Rod Stewart.

Maybe the problem is the OS/2 web browser. Anyway here's what I tried to send you: The web pages are *GREAT*!! If you're interested, I can scan the CD covers of "Oar" and "Fall on Amsterdam". What size do you want? What format JPEG, GIF,...? Are uuencoded files OK? I can try scanning the LP covers for "Moby Grape 69" and "Grape Jam". Both are worn, so I don't know how good they'll come out. I can also scan the label of the "Fall on You"/"Changes" single. --Barry

(LOCATION) stockport england (SONG) bitter wind (MEMBER) Skip Spence (RATING) ***** (COMMENTS) ived loved the grape since getting wow back in 70 i got the double reissue cd and without doubt they were one of the greatest undiscovered bands of all time. ive recently bought wow grape jam on cd and the jam sections are beautiful. ive been brought up on dead/airplane but i think somebody somewhere owes the grape an explanation as to why those bands along with a few others made it so big and they didnt. of course living in england doesnt help when you like west coast music so theres alot ive probably missed im sorry if my internet protocol isnt up to much but i only got on (line ?) a couple of days ago and im busy checking out my bands rather than learning to crawl ! first thanks for a great page

After winding our way to the top of the highest hill (the three of us on Eric's Triumph, no shit) which was close to our destination, we dropped and spent the next three or four hours enjoying internal and external scenery. Then we piled on the bike nad went downhill until we reached the Rio Nido Ballroom. There we heard the Grape and Janis' bunch which lator, Johnny, Eric and I considered to be a legendary concert. What great days.

04 Jan 1996 16:01:00 (NAME) Tom Parmenter (EMAIL) tompar@world.std.com (LOCATION) Boston (SONG) 8:05, but really one song is ridiculous. (REFERENCE) Alta Vista (RATING) *** (COMMENTS) Three stars for existing. I wrote an article about MG for Boston's Fusion mag back then, maybe someday I'll scan it in. You don't mention the "False Moby Grape" tour that Matthew Katz put togethe, one of the biggest disappointments of the 60s for me. This was a band with only one actual Grape in it. We got $2 back on our tickets, but bummer. I became a Moby Grape fan one line into "Hey Grandma", cut 1 side 1 and haven't stopped being one since. I didn't like the Moby Grape CD because they didn't really present the first album properly. I agree that this is one of the best albums ever.

13 Dec 1995 21:12:00 (NAME) Jack Kulp (EMAIL) captjak@postoffice.ptd.net (RATING) 10 (COMMENTS) Do you have the words and chords to "Murder in My Heart for the Judge"? I appreciate your efforts. I added the site to my bookmarks so I can return from time to time. I bought their first album between 1967 and 1969. I performed many of their songs (I am a 45 year old retired rock lead vocalist / blues harp player) for many years including 8:05, Omaha and Hey Grandma. I also performed several Byrds songs including Mr. Spaceman. As a lead vocalist, I have only lyrics to contribute. However, if my memory serves me, the lyrics were always included with the albums, with the possible exception of Grape Jam. Thanks for posting Naked If You Want To. My brother and I still perform for our own pleasure, and the music really helps. If there is ever anything you want to know about music and bands from that era, just let me know. I performed much of the music, and saw virtually every rock band at various venues during that time.
