Biography

A long-time fixture in the Los Angeles area, Don Randi is best-known as the proprietor of the North Hollywood club Baked Potato and for his longtime leadership of a popular fusion/crossover group, Quest. Raised in the Catskill Mountains of New York, Don Randi had classical music lessons for 13 years. He moved to the Los Angeles area in 1954. Since then he has been a busy studio musician, appearing on and writing for a countless number of motion picture and television soundtracks, commercials and pop albums. Randi recorded as a leader for World Pacific (1960), Verve (1962 including a trio date with Leroy Vinnegar and Mel Lewis), Palomar, Reprise, Capitol, Poppy, Sheffield Lab and Headfirst. Don Randi appears at the Baked Potato with Quest on a fairly regular basis.
