The American Metaphysical Circus is a 1969 album by Joseph Joe Byrd. It was recorded after his departure from the band The United States of America, and featured some of the earliest recorded work in rock music extensively utilizing synthesizers and vocoder, along with an extended group of West Coast studio musicians Byrd named The Field Hippies. The album is most noted for The Sub-Sylvian Litanies, which opened Side A. This three-part suite has been described as an entire acid trip in 11. Joe Byrd & The Field Hippies.

With a couple drummers, a half-dozen horn players including a young Tom Scott, three female vocalists, and a half-dozen or so other musicians popping up over the course of the album, there are a lot more people involved in this project than there were in the relatively stable lineup of the United States of America.

I found this album to be amazingly creative musically complexevolved different enjoyable and hauntingly reminiscent of a simpler, but more colorful time. Each time I listen to it, I hear something else. After the USA split,Byrd made a further album with 12 musicians called Field successful as the USA album,this was a strange voyage into the world of mystical and quasi-religious gave up much more skills with the USA Read more.
