'Electric Music For The Mind And Body' was a pretty awesome album. The late 60's were full of drug-infused music but not all of it was good, i'm glad to say Country Joe & The Fish were. This was their debut album with 11 songs oozing with drug references, most notably 'Bass Strings' which ends with the creepy slow repetition of LSD. A lot of the songs are hyper and all over the place and i'm pretty sure, judging from the album cover, they was accompanied by trippy light shows when they performed live. The one exception to the usual vibe of the songs is 'Sad and Lonely Times' which reminds me of Bob Dylan and The Beatles. I give this album a 4/5 for the good songs and the trippy vibe.
Tracks I enjoyed the most: Flying High, Death Sound, Porpoise Mouth, Section 43, Super Bird, Sad and Lonely Times, Love & Bass Strings.
