Artist/Song From Hippie Documentary
12 Answers
I'm keen to trace an artist/song I saw in a film. I thought it was the original 'Woodstock' film from 1970 but I can't find it. It might be the 'Monterey Pop' film or the 'Glasonbury Fayre' film. It's probably the first performance of the day as bleary-eyed festival goers crawl from their tents as the music starts. I can only remember the guitarist (who seemed to be the dominant player0 - he's wearing round and tinted 'Granny' specs and a miltary helmet and jacket. And I think he's got a little face paint. The music starts very mellow. Anyone?

McDonald wrote the song in about 20 minutes for an anti-Vietnam War play.[9] The "Fish Cheer" was the band performing a call-and-response with the audience, spelling the word "fish", followed by Country Joe yelling, "What's that spell?" twice, with the audience responding, and then, the third time, "What's that spell?", followed immediately by the song. //
