West Coast Legends Vol.3 - Spirit - Becker/WDRSPIRIT played in the Rockpalast Eurovision show in March 1978 and the band's concert became one of the highlights of the first Rockpalast series (1977 to 1986). RANDY CALIFORNIA had already played with JIMI HENDRIX in his then band "Jimi James and The Blue Flames" in New York at the age of 15. His guitar playing was strongly influenced by JIMI. RANDY and his stepfather, drummer ED CASSIDY, have been the core of SPIRIT's many changing line-ups since 1968. This DVD is an "in memoriam": On January 2, 1997, Randy California just managed to rescue his son Quinn from an adverse current during a beach holiday in Hawaii. He himself was dragged out into the sea and has been missing ever since. He was only 46 years old.
