There are two kinds of Zephyr fans; those who think the band died when Tommy Bolin left, and those who know it didn't. Zephyr's second and final Warner Bros. album (and third album overall) featured Boulder, Colorado guitar slinger Jock Bartley in place of Bolin, the replacement of Bobby Berge and John Faris, and one of the few known recorded appearances of Bobby Notkoff, other than his work with Neil Young, for whom he created the heart-wrenching violin break on "Running Dry."

Lead singer Candy Givens died in 1984, and this album is perhaps her most passionate legacy.

The second and last Zephyr LP to feature wunderkind guitarist Tommy Bolin. In September, 1970 the band went into Electric Lady Studios in New York City to start recording their second album with famous engineer/producer Eddie Kramer at the helm. They were now signed with Warner Brothers, as Probe had folded. Kramer had worked with some of the top names in rock, such as Led Zeppelin and especially Jimi Hendrix, with whom Kramer had an extremely productive relationship. The sessions for the album wrapped in October, and the album was released in January, 1971. Going Back to Colorado was in many ways an improvement over Zephyr, in large part due to better presentation of Candy Givens' vocals, but it still wasn’t the commercial breakthrough that the band was hoping for…
