Canned Heat Canned Heat was a blues-rock band in the 1960s. Their debut album was released not long after their appearance at the Monterey Pop Festival. Their second album, Boogie with Canned Heat was more successful, and included collaborations with John Lee Hooker. After "Goin' up the Country" and "Let's Work Together" became major hits, band-member Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson died, probably due to drug problems. The band continued touring for a time, but was never able to play to more than a small but devoted audience. The band appeared at the original Woodstock Music and Art Festival with their performance appearing in both the album and film release. Guitarist Harvey Mandel was one of the guitarists who came close to replacing the late Brian Jones in the Rolling Stones, with his efforts appearing on the Stone's album Black and Blue. Mandel has continued to record, self releasing albums, and in 2004, oddly enough, recorded a song written by MP3.com cofounder Rod Underhill, a musician and lawyer who served as the founding music director for the original MP3.com.
