United States Of America - Where Is Yesterday (1968)

Ok, i love this music, because it was not, at that time, average.

It did not sound commercial at all, and after hearing it a several times i realised that this music is timeless

I bought this album in Holland in '72 at a record store where they hadn't a clue what they were selling...

Why wouldn't you extend what the bands in the 60's tried to do? it's even harder these days if you think about it. TV slaves and one trick ponys; footballers that earn more than i'll earn in my life in a month?! Imagine living in an age where your far out music frightened the man? Now that every angle has been capped, every desire simulated - screed dreamers that don't even have enough or their own mind left to have a real vision. We are tollerated, because we are not united.

The entire album was creative and cutting edge for it's time. THis song was one of my favorites. The trippy song -Hard Coming Love- seems to be about a girl having several orgasms.

In the -THe Garden of Earthly Delights" I always felt as though the "her" being mentioned was Viet Nam during the war years.

Great Album! I remember buying this when the record label made them sell the album in a brown paper covering because of the "lewd" lyrics printed on the back cover

Yeah at last the great joseph byrd on you tube as the united states band, the other project (joseph byrd & thefield hippies) is also briljant.............
