As the folklore goes, Bill Graham was bringing a bunch of major acts from SFO and he shoehorned this unknown Latin jam band into the lineup because he thought it would work and knew their 1st album was being finalized. The rest is history and their first album was released shortly after Woodstock. From back alley late night billing at the Fillmore to superstardom in about 2 weeks. Whew!
