SUPER RARE in MONO ORIGINAL first pressing 1967 vinyl ...one of the ALL TIME classic acid-rock gems from the hippie sensation SUMMER OF LOVE in San Francisco!

Super rare in MONO because by 1967 record companies were phasing monaural releases out of production ...so this was the last year of such production and pressings were much more limited...The MONO version of this album contain different song mixes from the stereo issue and as well the sound production is completely different with a full dense deep sound.

      ~ In 1967, this album defined the genre known as acid-rock ~

Their full-length debut is their most joyous and cohesive statement and one of the most important and enduring documents of the psychedelic era, the band's swirl of lysergic atmospherics is drenched with distorted guitar and whirling organ at its most inventive. In contrast to Jefferson Airplane, who were at their best working within conventional song structures, and the Grateful Dead, who hadn't quite yet figured out how to transpose their music to the recording studio, Country Joe & the Fish delivered a fully formed, uncompromising, and yet utterly accessible -- in fact, often delightfully witty -- body of psychedelic music the first time out. Ranging in mood from good-timey to downright apocalyptic, it embraced all of the facets of the band's music, which were startling in their diversity: soaring guitar and swirling keyboard excursions ("Flying High," "Section 43," "Bass Strings," "The Masked Marauder"), the group's folkrock roots ("Sad and Lonely Times"), McDonald's personal ode to Grace Slick ("Grace"), and their in-your-face politics ("Superbird"). Hardly any band since the Beatles had ever come up with such a perfect and perfectly bold introduction to who and what they were, and the results -- given the prodigious talents and wide-ranging orientation of this group -- might've scared off most major record labels. Additionally,The quiet power of this album continues to enthrall those willing to enter its strange but friendly world. The quiet power of this album continues to enthrall those willing to enter its strange but friendly world -- the hippie temptation within the hippie sensation...the results, here, are etched in stone:

CONDITION: The front cover is VG++ a little wear just starting at very bottom but nothing too bad at all, very small. A collection keeper and the back cover with cool group photo is M- ...Otherwise solid, very clean with NO seam splits, no bends and no writing ...looks strong. there is a small delete drill at bottom left, minor. Original 1967 Vangaurd label inner sleeve is included!
