Country Joe McDonald


Sorry to see of his passing at just 84 years old. Definitely a standout member of the San Francisco scene in the 1960’s.

@thecarpathian - I know, I saw that in the obit - also interesting that he was born in DC, like Jack and Jorma from Jefferson Airplane.

Thanks for filling me in, gentlemen.   It seems like half the threads end up going off the rails and become pissing matches.  Some threads have more deleted comments than actual comments pertinent to the topic.  It really gets old.

 

Enjoy the music.

As a teenager I saw Country Joe and the Fish at Central Park in NYC back in the late sixties. It might have been a free concert. Can’t remember for sure. You don’t see many of those anymore.

Anyway, an online article a few years ago pointed out the Central Park concert was the first time The Fish and Country Joe ever broke out the "Fish cheer". As a participant, can I claim to be part of history? RIP Joe.
