    I was browsing through an antique store yesterday, and I found Tonight I'm Singing Just For You. I'm not too impressed...But I am enjoying "Tennessee Stud." :D

    Well...
    Can anybody reccommend another of his albums? I'm kind of intrigued...

    You should check out the first two albums of Country Joe & The Fish, Electric Music For The Mind And Body and I Feel Like I'm Fixin' To Die. Both contain some of the best psychedelic music ever made!!

    Yeah, those two albums fucking rock. The only other stuff I've heard by him is from Woodstock..

    Did he sung :
    1-2-3 What are we fighting for?
    Don’t ask me, I don’t give a damn. The next stop is Vietnam .
    5-6-7 Open up the pearly gates.
    It ain’t no time to wonder why. Yippee! We’re all going to die.

    Okay, shameless self-promotion here but I wrote a story about Country Joe and he loved it so much he put it on his site. Everyone must read it. http://www.countryjoe.com/weird.htm It's the third story, linked as 'A Fantasy'. Look now. Do it!

    yeah, "tonight I'm singin for you' does suck a lot, its almost like country...but his first few albums are great. don't let that stinker keep you from checking out his first two albums especially.

    I saw him a few years ago at Woody Free Fest and he was entertaining and real.
    He's raising $$ for vets who got rescrewed when they came home to a land where we spit on them and our one and only gov't decided to deny anything was wrong with any of 'em.
