Country Joe & The Fish: Country Joe McDonald, Barry Melton, David Cohen, Bruce Barthol, Chicken Hirsh.
Personnel: Barry Melton (vocals, guitar, 12-string guitar); Joe McDonald (vocals, acoustic guitar, organ); David Cohen (guitar, organ); Bruce Barthol (harmonica); Gary "Chicken" Hirsh (drums, congas, bells).
Liner Note Author: Alex Palao.
Recording information: Sierra Sound Laboratories, Berkeley (02/1967); Vanguard Studios, New York, NY (02/1967); Sierra Sound Laboratories, Berkeley (07/1967-08/1967); Vanguard Studios, New York, NY (07/1967-08/1967).
Country Joe McDonald and his cohorts were the quintessential 1960s band. On this, their milestone, they combine homegrown folkie roots with good-natured irreverence, a dose of head music, and plenty of old-fashioned rock & roll. Infamous for the light-hearted ribaldry of "The Fish Cheer," the group was capable of much more. McDonald eventually went on to a fertile solo career, but Country Joe & The Fish were an inspired, eclectic group whose music, best represented on this seminal album, remains one of the most underrated legacies of the era.
