About this album

What About Me shows Quicksilver Messenger Service moving from San Francisco psychedelia towards a tougher, more road-worn rock sound. Released in 1970, the album keeps the band’s improvisational edge but favours blues-rock muscle, leaner arrangements and a rougher, more direct feel than their earlier work. The title track became one of the group’s best-known late-period statements, while the record as a whole reflects the shifting direction of West Coast rock at the start of the 1970s. It stands as an interesting and undervalued chapter in the Quicksilver catalogue, bridging the improvisational spirit of the 1960s and the harder classic-rock era that followed.
