Joyous Noise - Joyous Noise (1971 us, strong melodic folk country swamp rock, 2012 korean remaster)



The contents of this album are meant to be a combination of music, positivism and thoughtfulness aimed at both gut and the mind.  Joyous Noise formed in the Spring of 1971. Their individual experiences are considerable in number and scope and their collective axperience a key to their ensemble ability.

Joyous Noise have been bringing audiences to their feet to dance on tables, chairs, floors and other available surfaces. This record may get you up on yours, moving, thinking and having a high old time. It will tell you what you need to know about Joyous Noise, and it may tell you something about yourself.

  4. An enjoyable listen! I'm surprised that Joyous Noise didn't find a larger audience, but then a lot of other bands (like America, Poco, Batdorf & Rodney, etc.) were mining this same vein in the early 70's.
