Quicksilver Messenger Service: Anthology [Capitol, 1973]
With nary a selection from last year's flop and four awful ones from its predecessor, this compilation is where they admit defeat, and why not? Neither Nicky Hopkins expressing himself nor Dino Valenti acting free--good thing (for him) that he was busted for dope rather than impersonating a vocalist or he'd still be up the river--could stop this band from dating in record time. C+
