NOT the pre-Allman Brothers Band called The Allman Joys.

Thanks to CoolSonics 290, kneesfudd and everyone else involved in getting this being shared at Dime.

CoolSonics 290 noted:
Thanks to the original taper & traders! Corrections welcome. When this came along it was a welcome addition to my West Coast music library as I’d seen the name on so many cool psychedelic posters but never actually heard the band. Most everything about it is great, jamming, instrumentation & vocals & only a couple of funk numbers overdo it a bit for me, though they more than have their good moments as they contain extensive jams & feedback sessions.
The drugged-out material is staggeringly great, with astonishing SUPER HEAVY psychedelic lead guitar. Nice to have entered an age where one can increase one’s listening pleaure in so many ways with home mastering. Aside from a couple of bad splices, this is massively improved over my original tape. Anyway, according to “Fist”, the band name was changed to Allmen Joy in part because of the candy bar (loved by band members) & partly, “because the band was very promiscuous & was a hit with many of the female followers”!
Many posters with Allmen Joy exist as they were Avalon Ballroom regulars & played the Straight Theatre, Matrix & most Bay Area venues, toured California, & played as far afield as the Vancouver Retinal Circus. There certainly are more tapes out there. Please consider letting us hear some of them.
In the meantime, your heart will nearly stop at times. Be sure the pacemaker & air guitar fuzzbox have fresh batteries. If you had trouble coming down from your last acid trip, however many days, months or years ago that was, then be careful with the volume on “You’re Gonna Miss Me”, cause it SURE ain’t for those who aren’t into doin’ some cerebral travelin’. Pretty well guaranteed to leave whatever mind noodles ya got left all over the floor & the ghosts of Christmas past howling down your chimney. Get ready to ENJOY the Allmen Joy!

kneesfudd’s notes:
If Blue Cheer made cream cheese outta the air, then these guys musta crystalized the heavens on a good night. Some kind of a mix of Blue Cheer & Big Brother guitars, Country Joe & The Fish style ethereal moves & organ, & occasional Dead-like feedback & vocal insanity, mixed with ’60s garage sounds & a nod to the Chambers Brothers… ’60s West Coast manna from the vault. “You came here to enjoy yourselves, so why not trip out?
- EXC stereo SBD with a few bad splices.
- Warts: Slightly overdriven vocals at times. Some dullspots/dropouts unrepairable or surely missed but fixed most of ‘em. #1 has brief glitch in middle (but patched so unless yr countin’ beats ya won’t notice). #6 fades in. #4 has BAD splice at start & after it they’re possibly into another song but it’s a monster of a jam ’til the guitar player breaks a string, but they wander thru space til the end. #8 cuts.
- Parts of 2 sets(?) from 1 night during December 29-31, 1967. Gingerbred Blu, Allmen Joy with The Doors headlining.
- VERY heavy Haight Ashbury psychedelic band with funk influences that evolved out of the FAC’s (Fungus Amongus Committee) in summer 1966.
- Band never had ANY commercial 45s or an album as far as I can see. Musta done studio sessions & recorded other gigs.
- Some tracks likely from a late set or 2nd show.
- #3 & #6 song titles are guesses & the #8 instrumental title is unknown to me.
- You’ve waited 47 YEARS for the ALLMEN JOY… Welcome to 2014!
Recording: soundboard > unknown reel-to-reel equipment > master stereo reel > 1st generation reel or cassette > 2nd generation Maxell XLII-90 cassette, Dolby B on. Remastered without EQ. (bigozine2.com)
