Too little, too late, July 26, 2007
This review is from: Country Joe & Fish (Vanguard Visionaries) (Audio CD)
The Fish really were one of the best bands of the time; the controlled explosion of creativity that was their first four albums would fill two discs with ease (all 4 discs are priceless).
Phooey on Vanguard for keeping these "Visionaries" so tightly under-wraps - and irritable thanks for releasing ANY of this material, however grudgingly
(maybe they'll get smart & release the Martin Mull & Oregon material they're sitting on, too)

Disappointing, March 4, 2009
This review is from: Country Joe & Fish (Vanguard Visionaries) (Audio CD)
Vanguard Visionaries is an extraordinarily disappointing series, given that the label is being so stingy with its offerings. The label has an excellent roster. If they wanted to publicise their archives, they could have been a great deal more generous at this price - or else offered it for $6 or so. It's also disappointing that Vanguard is ignoring some of the wonderful stuff in its archives and focusing instead on meaningless releases of this variety - the "greatest hits" by the same artists, on the same label, are a much better deal.
