United States of America album Product Description


United States of America album by United States Of America was released Jul 13, 2004 on the Sundazed label. Originally released on Columbia in 1968, The United States of America is one of the legendary pure psychedelic space records. United States of America songs Some of the harder-rocking tunes have a fun house recklessness that recalls aspects of early Pink Floyd and the Velvet Underground at their freakiest; the sedate, exquisitely orchestrated ballads, especially "Cloud Song" and the wonderfully titled "Love Song for the Dead Che," are among the best relics of dreamy psychedelia. United States of America album Occasionally things get too excessive and self-conscious, and the attempts at comedy are a bit flat, but otherwise this is a near classic. ~ Richie Unterberger Originally released on Columbia (9614).1968 Reissue W/ Bonus Tracks The United States of America: Joseph Byrd (electric harpsichord); Rand Forbes (bass guitar); Craig Woodson (electronic drums); Dorothy Moskowitz, Gordon Marron Strings.

BUY THIS CD!
This album is a true lost classic of psychedelic rock.This band for the most part had a really unique sound,and Dorothy Moskowitzs voice just soars.Although a couple of the tracks are kind of lame,the rest of the songs are just psychedelic genius. If your into psych music at all,or just great rock music period,you need to get this album.

I love this CD
This CD is so fantastic, the music is so imaginative and entertaining. I do hope that the next Joe Byrd-album, Joe Byrd and the Field Hippies "The American metaphysical circus" will be re-released in the near future.

One of the few great albums
What can I say but wow? It is only very rarely that an album comes along that is truly unique, creative, etc. This is the best example of electronic and/or experimental music, because this is a group with true musical talent, so the electronics and sound effects work with the music rather than taking it over. Many "musicians" tend to overdo effects to cover a lack of ability, but that doesn't happen here. Simply an amazing album that should be heard. Buy it and listen. (Now when will we get a re-release of the subsequent Joseph Byrd album?)

classic psyche
Without a doubt one of the great lost classics of 60's psychadelia. Drenched in acid, dipped in weirdness, sprinkled with genius. An absolute masterpiecethat makes Barratt era Floyd sound like Hermans Hermits. wonderous to behold.

The Best of the Sixties!
A smoothe, creative and hauntingly impressive album, one of many which I grew up with and still remains among my favorites.
