[THRASHEDTILLDEATH]

Man I love country Joe bands back in the day used there minds not the minds of some mediocre producer.

Joe & Barry! You owe me one joint and a pack of Camels (University of Wisconsin-Madison, 1968.... )

Berkeley 1967.....Haight-Ashbury just across the pool....loads of acid.....freedom...hitchhiking to anywhere from anywhere.....free love for "fully-tuned" people......rock and roll music.....transfixation with ideas and fervent exchange of them.....its so long ago.... i wish I was born in 1945 or so...this can never ever happen again...Why the fuck????....Love this album....Check out Section 43 - this is CJATF in full acid swing.......Greetings to Joe, Barry, Chicken, Bruce and David.

@UJ96LFA You got it, man.I was in Madison, Wisc. in'67. But I had a lot of friends in the Bay Area. I'd thumb from Mad City to Berkeley. Sell blood at Alameda County Blood Bank. Have apple juice, eat 2 cookies. THen it's across the bridge to SF General.Repeat blood deal. More juice & cookies. $45 in blood money & down 2 pints of blood. Thumb across GG Bridge to Tamalpais. Drop 200 mics on way up mountain. Trip for 2 days (low blood). Then back to Madison and philosophy courses. The'60s!!!

@UJ96LFA Haight Ashbury since then is hippy paradise. But the use of drugs spread from there to every major American city. Cool, eh?

[3ClickAristera]

This song makes you feel as stoned as Hell!

McDonald sent us hiiigh...and guess:we went flying all the way.Peace.

[sparkyization]

Great teenyBopper tune from days of yore

Kontrast this one with .. oh, "Last Train to Clarksville" from MonkeeShines

lol! (snicker, snicker)

[Loungeflyer]

If you like this music, you should check out "Steppeulvene" especially the songs "000" and "Dunhammeraften", psychedelic rock from the 70's...

[historyoflove]

i love this band ...they are always flying high in thier songs ja... all the way ! :D pleasure to find good stoner music instead of crapy reaggae or rap...ja

[AbsoloutlyZimtstern]

@historyoflove what is bad about reaggae?

[gerundive]

@AbsoloutlyZimtstern

That's what I was wondering.

[gerundive]

@historyoflove

They were, and still are one of my favorites from 1967 til now, and it in no way diminishes my love of reggae--nothing did, until reggae started sounding much like rap, in the mid-80s.

[mrbag60]

An aptly titled album indeed.

[bassandguitarguy]

Cool, hip, far out, psckedelic, man!

[califbaby1969]

1967: $3 for a concert.... saw them many times in San Diego; rebels with only a few causes: peace, love & feeling good....

[brakspbfun]

it was only dollers back then, becuase things were less expensive, plus a good pay was like 50 bucks back then..

[gerundive]

@califbaby1969 It was $1.25 at the Avalon Ballroom in 1967, but then again, we were much closer to the center of the vortex.

[Jenscool]

Those were the days, $20 to fly From L.A. to S.F.

[SkopTeocratico]

This is their best album. E' il loro album migliore ed uno dei migliori album del periodo.

[Sean123771]

Feel Like I;m Fizin To Die is realllll good too tho

[JFguitar22]

seriously i love this band...i didn't know nothing about them ...and now i say thank you to you for put theses songs on youtube !!

[Grumock]

I have been hooked on this band ever since a friend of mine nicnamed The Fish, played them for me around 1985.

[hippygangster]

Barry Melton along with James Gurley(Big Brother)are the unsung innovators of the San Francisco Psychedelic guitar sound.

[whippingpost69]

does anyone know the guitar tabs for this song????? im too lazy to figure that shit out on my own!!!!

[Leaveitago]

No I was looking for it too. Unfortunately not enough respect is given to Barry Melton so no one has tabbed it out yet.
