They were labelled the 'bad boys of rock' after a stint in jail, they broke through the LA blues scene in the 60s and played at the legendary Woodstock Festival - of course I'm talking about Canned Heat! The band went on to achieve huge success around the world with legendary songs like Going Up The Country, Let's Work Together and On The Road Again. My guest today is Fito de la Parra who joined the band in 1967 and he tells some brilliant stories from his 55 year career with the band. How he joined the group after arriving from Mexico, stories behind the big hits, how he signed up to make no money and of course about that very special festival!
