There are certain records and bands that send a message to those who are following a scene with a keen eye on the big prize. One such act was Yesterday and Today who burst out of the San Francisco Bay scene like an erupting volcano, knocking the competition sideways with a blitzkrieg of high energy and hard rocking determination. There's no question that this band had it all in the palm of their hand, squeezing molten metal from largely hard-core ingredients, shocking those in the know that such a live wire unit could've appeared out of the normally sedate West Coast scene. With the band name (a nod to The Beatles) and geographical location indicating a far more relaxed style of music it was a major shock to find out that the band were a raging hard rock outfit hell bent on ripping up the rule book, crafting a vicious slice of electric noise that soon found an underground audience. With an ear for a good tune and the appropriate energy to thrust their noise to every corner of the bay area, it didn't take long for heads to turn. Signed to the independent London label they delivered tracks such as 'Animal Woman,' 'Earthshaker,' 'Fast Ladies (Very Slow Gin),' 'Game Playing Woman' and the exquisite 'Beautiful Dreamer,' leaving everyone convinced that this was an act going places. Produced by co-manager Louis Bramy (a partner of local legend Herbie Herbert). Getting the band out playing live was the order of the day and the band rolled out their show from San Francisco with new all girl band The Runaways acting as support. Certainly, the package attracted attention and helped to set them up for their second album 'Struck Down'.
