I was never very listy until ILM corrupted me. What can i say, it's been a long winter. the trees are bare. the wind howls. This is inspired by the 500 top noise albums thread i started and which was a rousing success. and that nuggets thread reminded me that i've been meaning to do this for a while. if you hate lists, um, that's fine. anyway, feel free to contribute your fave psych moments from the 60's. any genre. jazzpsych, folkpsych, funkpsych, electropsych. exploitopoppsych. loony/loser/lonerpsych. whatever you want. it should, however, smell like acid, taste like acid, and feel like acid.and it should be something that you really like.remember, not everything with a farfisa and some fuzz guitar was all that lysergically inclined. course, it's all in the eye of the beholder.If you want to add comments, feel free! we can all learn something. and point out stuff that people shouldn't live without. This may take awhile, but i've got all winter. one more thing, feel free to list individual songs."put them in quotes".so many great no-album wonders out there.(if this goes well, i'll start a thread for the 1970's & beyond) Feel free to add reissues of stuff that never saw the light of day until recently.these are not in order of greatness, by the way. that's too hard to do. well, the first 5 maybe.

40.The Hobbits-Men and Doors
41.The Hobbits-Down To Middle Earth (The Hobbits records aren't great but they are entertaining.and what you would often get with studio exploito-psych albums are really great bad trip tunes with lots of screaming and madness. see:william shatner, sonny bono, etc. or RCA's Three Ring Circus album which is really creepy circus clown psych-pop. oh, there are hundreds of examples. i've always had a soft spot for the cheesiness. i'm someone who could never understand the Ultimate Spinach hate. so, it's silly! it's monumentally silly. and groovy.)

Canadian dream/fuzz/beauty that i never tire of. i have a boot. i don't know if it has been reissued properly. most of the stuff i am listing HAS been reissued or is in print in some form though.I see 22 records that i have listed so far that would not be that hard to find. i don't think.)
53.The Unspoken Word-Tuesday,April 19th (this is pretty cheap on ebay usually. and it's great folk-psych. not a big name or rarepsychmonster or anything, but very very lovely.)
54.The World Of Oz-S/T (one of the most twee fairytale psych albums of all time. Makes Nirvana sound like Blue Cheer. um, the old Nirvana that is.)
55.Joyride-Friendsound (This was reissued too! on vinyl! By a major label! also one of my faves. 3 former members of Paul Revere & The Raiders make one of the greatest Krautrock albums of all time. who would have guessed?)
56.Judy Henske & Jerry Yester-Farewell Aldebaran (Mojo jacked the price of this one up on ebay when they featured judy in an issue. which is good if i ever want to sell mine. but i don't.)
57.Harvey Matusow's Jew's Harp Band-War Between The Fats and Thins
58.The Group Image-A Mouth In The Clouds

scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 17:03 (twenty-one years ago)

Scott, if you like the Elevators, check out Power Plant by the Golden Dawn. Texas psych of a similar mystical bent, replete w/ bells and all. No jug though...

Aaron W (Aaron W), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 17:25 (twenty-one years ago)

76.We The People-"Nothing Like A Vision" (this is on the sundazed double-cd we the people comp. it's a demo, just acoustic guitar and amazing dreamy free association lyrics. somebody should cover it. that comp is one that i would recommend to anybody interested in garage/psych. they ran the gaumut of styles and they do it all well. they are most famous for those fiery howlers "mirror of your mind" and "you burn me up and down" which are both staggering, but they did so much other great stuff.)

scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 17:36 (twenty-one years ago)

Scott, if you like the Elevators, check out Power Plant by the Golden Dawn.

i do need this, i don't know why i never pick it up somewhere. i don't own a copy of the parable of arable land by red crayola either.speaking label-wise, that is.

i don't own a copy of the parable of arable land by red crayola either.

I have that, but truth be told, I find the Red Crayola virtually unlistenable for some reason. Something about 'em just grates...

Anyhow, sum obvious stuff:
91. Country Joe & the Fish - Electric Music
92. Grateful Dead - Live Dead
93. Jefferson Airplane - Crown of Creation (I'm almost half serious when I say that to me, this is the absolute pinnacle of psych music, the playing on this is amazing. I like this even more than Baxters...)

NickB (NickB), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 17:46 (twenty-one years ago)

i need that Billy Nichols album too! that is just a beaut of a record. why oh why wasn't i born with a trust fund? life isn't fair. i can't buy everything.

scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 17:48 (twenty-one years ago)

94.Meic Stevens-Ghost Town (i was gonna put Outlander on here until i remembered that it came out in 1970. Ghost Town is demos that Tenth Planet put out of songs that would later show up on Outlander and other stuff.all pre-1970. i think i like it even better than Outlander-which i just bought from rhinohandmade-20 bucks well spent. these are the demos that he sent to Apple records and which they passed on cuz they were lame.welsh & english language folk/psych of the very highest order. bring a tear to your eye, it will.)

scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 18:12 (twenty-one years ago)

95. Van Morrison-Astral Weeks
96. Parson Sound. (I can't say what individual albums, since I only have that CD comp that came out a couple years ago. But holy fuck were they on something strong.)

jody (Jody Beth Rosen), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 22:23 (twenty-one years ago)

re:Friendsound: i enjoy the one Brotherhood album i have that those dudes made as well. Drake & Phil rock. They were the ones responsible for cool Raiders stuff like "There's Always Tomorrow" and "Louie Go Home". all that eastern inflected holy modal garage rock that is so heavenly. when they left the band the Raiders weren't as good.(i need the second Brotherhood album)

may pang, i was just listening to that last night! i turned it up for There's No Blood In Bone. it sounds great loud.

scott seward (scott seward), Wednesday, 11 February 2004 22:25 (twenty-one years ago)

scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 12 February 2004 01:10 (twenty-one years ago)

the surface noise (electricsound), Thursday, 12 February 2004 01:22 (twenty-one years ago)

There is one! It even has bonus tracks from their singles. I know because once again I found myself in the situation of having an inferior edition sans the bonus tracks.

Broheems (diamond), Thursday, 12 February 2004 01:33 (twenty-one years ago)

i know there was a vinyl reissue with the tracks from the 45 - is that the one you mean? if there's a CD reissue i want it now

scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 12 February 2004 02:41 (twenty-one years ago)

haha - "looks semi-legal"; sounds like you might have the same edition I have. With like, the cover image all computer-pixillated?

Broheems (diamond), Thursday, 12 February 2004 02:44 (twenty-one years ago)

219. The Tokens - Intercourse

Tokens
Intercourse
CRREV37
From the depths of the legendary BT Puppy vaults...(a label which seems to have as many "lost albums" as they had hits!)...the very Daddies of Softpop...The Tokens! Though the Tokens are best remembered for their international smash hit "The Lion Sleeps Tonight", recently revived in "The Lion King", they did much more...producers, writers, publishers and label owners, they had a long string of hits in all those roles..."Intercourse" is a full on Softpop song cycle, inexplicably turned down by their then-label Warner Brothers, and released in an edition of 200 copies on their own BT Puppy label for contractual reasons...far from their Doo-Wop roots, The Tokens delivered an album pitched somewhere between Pet Sounds and Sergeant Pepper, with all the production and arrangement tricks that implies...no wonder Warners were dumbfounded!.....and no wonder collectors have been going nuts and paying silly sums for this album ever since!...Newly remastered by The Tokens themselves, this is a surprise treat in anyone's language, as The Tokens show not only every cult Softpop group, but many superstars just how it's done....with the wicked tongue-in -cheek touch which they were justly famous for.


Jimmy the Sainted, Thursday, 12 February 2004 13:23 (twenty-one years ago)

Stimmung is a total hippie commune piece!!! And I didn't pick it, but I agree with the Rainbow in Curved Air choice too. Maybe this thread has turned into "1001 Interstellar 1960s Recordings That Anyone Tuned In and Turned On Wouldn't Be Caught Dead Without"

I think it is safe to state that some acid may have been consumed during the making of this album:

234. Daevid Allen/ Gilli Smyth - Magick Brother/ Mystic Sister

1969, so it counts, but one thing I've never understood it says in the sleevenotes that the album was recorded on a 3-track movie camera - oh hold, Daevid Allen wrote the sleevenotes and i'm expecting them to make any sense?!???!?

Only that song Scott? I've never heard the whole '69 album. Just have the first two and Vintage. Might as well throw the first one on the list though, for "Sitting By a Window" alone but then the whole thing is excellent anyway so why not-

256. Moby Grape - s/t

C'mon we've got a long way to here. We need to ratchet this bad boy up a bit.

257. Wizards From Kansas - s/t

I like it a lot! It's not a life-changer or anything, which is why it's down here in the 250s I suppose. But there are some cool post-Airplane sounds (actually probably just drawing that comparison because they have a male-female vocal thing going on), some nice stinging guitar lines. It's a pleasing listen if you've exhausted all the top-tier psych stuff, and very much "in the vein".

Just been listening to this again for the first time in a while, a record made by two fellers from (I think) the same UFO scene as Pink Floyd, Arthur Brown, John's Children etc. (Mick Hutchinson was Sam Gopal's guitar player for a while). Five long bent-as-fuck ethno-instrumentals, with Hutchinson's guitar trying to cut through the exact same radiant fog that cloaked the likes of Pharoah Sanders' Tauhid and the Sun City Girls' 'Space Prophet Dogon'.

Re: Harvey Matusow, there is (somewhat bizarrely) a Matusow archive at the University library here. That guy seems to have had quite an interesting life, but from what I've read, he seems like a bit of a sleazy guy. I haven't heard that record, but I do have an older friend who seems to always dig out the sleeve at dinner parties proclaiming "this is the weirdest record I own". Unfortunately his wife never lets him play it to me...

NickB (NickB), Friday, 20 February 2004 18:13 (twenty-one years ago)

it is a weird record. it's quite unique. and it is the kind of record you would want to play for people who enjoy weird records.It's probably not the weirdest record i own. that might have to be Dion Macgregor's He Talks In His Sleep on Decca. Or maybe something else i'm forgetting.

scott seward (scott seward), Friday, 20 February 2004 20:08 (twenty-one years ago)

Ok, since we're runnning out of steam with the albums, let's just keep going with singles. Then someone can compile them all and burn me some cds. Sound good?

maypang (maypang), Friday, 20 February 2004 20:13 (twenty-one years ago)

i don't think we are running out of steam. it's just gonna take awhile. i kinda figured it would. it will ebb and flow. and some albums really only have one good psych song on them. for instance:


301.Boyce & Hart - "Jumpin' Jack Flash"

Christ, I've got through the entire list and STILL nobody has mentioned the July album - a fine example of UK psych, some bits twee, some bits rocking, some bits pure flakiness.

Jim - you won't be disappointed by Kaleidescope / Fairfield Parlour, but do make sure you get the stereo edition of "SF Sorrow", it's far better.

Rob M (Rob M), Monday, 23 February 2004 12:21 (twenty-one years ago)

Everyone loves the July album! It was just so obvious we all forgot it. hell, nobody's even said strawberry fields forfriggin'ever yet. so, we'll put you down for one July album then? that makes it:

322.July-S/T

scott seward (scott seward), Monday, 23 February 2004 12:35 (twenty-one years ago)

In fact, "My Clown" might even be my favorite psych song of all time! okay, that's a bold statement, but it's up there. (and eveyone should make sure that they own a reissue that includes the second single with "The Way" on it.unless you are a zillionare, in which case, just buy the originals.)

Broheems (diamond), Friday, 27 February 2004 04:14 (twenty-one years ago)

the 2nd one is psychier.

Broheems! I'm really glad you read my Chubby piece. You are exactly the audience i was thinking of when i wrote it. I'm gonna leave the link here for maypang or anyone else interested in psych records that time has forgotten. You know, it's funny, for years i never even told people about that record cuz i was afraid that crusty cratediggers like myself would jack the price up on ebay before i could find a really nice copy. Hah! Is that paranoid or what? well, now i have two nice copies. plus, people just gotta hear it. In a postscript, my brother has actually talked to the head muckymuck at Sundazed records about reissuing it if at all possible. Ain't that cool! The Sundazed dude had no idea it existed either. okay, later for now.

http://thefreelancementalists.blogspot.com/

scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 28 February 2004 11:59 (twenty-one years ago)

Oh yeah, Scott - that piece was fucking unbelievably great!! Keep up the good work, my friend. That record has definitely gone on my want list. I wonder if my buddy James Porter has it; that is so totally right up his alley. He's the guy I met in the early 90s who told me shit like I needed to buy the Bill Cosby lps with the Watts Band on them and that Swamp Dogg was a genius and that Gene Chandler's 70s records were good and that those $1 Ohio Untouchables 45s I was fingering were authored by the group that would become the Ohio Players and so forth. A real mentor. Ah, the days of buying vinyl cheaply for the sounds and the feeling of adventure. Too bad all the Brits coming over here and all the lame DJ Shadow wannabe dorks killed it all. Anyway, yeah, Ed Chalpin - wotta scumsucker.

el sabor de gene (yournullfame), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 00:41 (twenty-one years ago)

Hmmm, i don't know, you think? We would have to have someone change the thread title to 1960's & Beyond.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 00:42 (twenty-one years ago)

I kinda like the seperation of the original psych era with what came after. And i was gonna start another thread for the 70's & Beyond if this one ever ended. But maybe it will never end. Like a really long horrible acid trip.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 00:45 (twenty-one years ago)

I mean it WILL end eventually. I still have a lot of records in storage that i'm forgetting. We could, of course, speed things along by listing stuff wholesale from various comps like nuggets/rubble/etc.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 00:47 (twenty-one years ago)

I have that Black Mass album and i don't think i even knew/remembered that it was Mort Garson.

scott seward (scott seward), Tuesday, 16 March 2004 00:48 (twenty-one years ago)

Yeah, there have already been some violations that have gone unnoticed. Like, someone listed Spirit's Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus, but it's actually from 1970. I discovered this because I was checking to see if they got mentioned, but that was the only one. So here are the rest!

343. Spirit
344. Spirit - The Family That Plays Together
345. Spirit - Clear

milton, see above re: head, it's not actually a mort garson record, by Nik Raicevic/Pascal

I have Haack/Nelson's Way Out Record For Children, and it's kind of neat (if obv an actual children's record), but nowhere near as good as Electric Lucifer.

dleone (dleone), Thursday, 18 March 2004 22:52 (twenty-one years ago)

ok, now I get it. it's droney electronic psychedelia, kind of reminiscent of early Cluster, just after they split w/Schnitzler. Lots of bubbly synth noises and spacey reverb.

dleone (dleone), Thursday, 18 March 2004 22:54 (twenty-one years ago)

it's like I'm completely helpless in that regard, anyone compares anything to any period of Cluster and i have to buy it

it's pretty damn good, not top-tier all time classic but a little bit of everything (pop-psych, harder stuff, etc.) that you'd probably like if you like "portcullis gate," which is on the acme/lion reissue as a bonus track.

el sabor de gene (yournullfame), Friday, 19 March 2004 00:25 (twenty-one years ago)

>I have Haack/Nelson's Way Out Record For Children, and it's kind of neat (if obv an actual children's record), but nowhere near as good as Electric Lucifer.

the one I dragged out the other day is '72's 'Dance To The Music', which has the two of them trading off whispering things in your ear over spacey electronic drones, telling the kids to close their eyes, turn the lights out and roll around on the ground. Until both of them chant in unison,

"AT THIS POINT IN THE EXERCISE, SOME CHILDREN WILL BEGIN TO FEEL AS IF THEY ARE PART OF ONE GIGANTIC CHILD"

That's me done, then. BTW, I am not using the "smells like acid, tastes like acid, feels like acid" criteria. "Music," however, as the Red Krayola note on the back of their 2nd album, "is delicious." (By the way, there are songs about sex on both of the first two Red Krayola albums! Definitely an unusual thing for psychedelic records other than she comes in colors and such. They are: "Hurricane Fighter Plane" and "The Shirt.")

i will download and or buy according to your recommendations! and feedback may follow

from what i have listened to, its all fucking great... especially the meic stevens, kinks, and power plant (i havent gotten through most of the stuff yet though)

also, does anyone have the meic stevens demos from '65 that tenth planet put out? is it worth the 20 or so dollars?

"also, does anyone have the meic stevens demos from '65 that tenth planet put out? is it worth the 20 or so dollars?"

If you can find a copy of *Ghost Town* the album that Tenth Planet put out of demos from the Outlander period, 68-69, BUY IT BUY IT BUY IT. One of my favorite records. I think I might even like it more than Outlander. Just beautiful. I dunno about the 65 demos. Haven't seen it, but I would scoop it up. Meic's stuff is uniformly amazing from the 60's and the Tenth Planet stuff goes quick.

I'm glad this thread gave you some good buying ideas! That's a cool list of stuff. I wish I was hearing some of that stuff for the first time again.

el sabor de gene (yournullfame), Saturday, 15 January 2005 21:35 (twenty years ago)

nice though, tim. way to keep the dream alive. i'll have to add more recent stuff i have heard and some more single tracks that haven't been mentioned. i felt like it was too easy to just cherry-pick stuff from nuggets or rubble boxes, but i might have to to bring it over the top.

scott seward (scott seward), Saturday, 15 January 2005 22:32 (twenty years ago)

so, uh, what's the provenance of all that stuff, Tim? I've only heard of the Sidewalks and of course Fowley. Is that Rubble box stuff? I have a few of the Bam Caruso lps, maybe I even have those tracks! I need to break those suckers out again.

Stormy Davis (diamond), Saturday, 15 January 2005 22:36 (twenty years ago)

No, mostly U.S. stuff. Some stuff from Pebbles, Highs in the Mid '60s, Erik Lindgren comps like the incredible Beyond the Calico Wall album and his "Dose of" series.

Tim Ellison (Tim Ellison), Saturday, 15 January 2005 22:41 (twenty years ago)

The one volume I have of Fuzz, Flakes, and Shakes (Volume 1) is really good. That seems like a cool new series.

Wow, I haven't had time to go through this whole thread yet but Aoxomoxoa at #454 is pretty insane.

scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 22 September 2005 10:15 (twenty years ago)

walter, the numbers do not indicate relative merit, it's just to keep track innit. For example, many may ponder how on earth we got this far w/o mentioning:

457. The Deep - Psychedelic Moods: A Mind Expanding Phenomena by the Deep

Jeff W (zebedee), Thursday, 22 September 2005 11:08 (twenty years ago)

i need that new deep reissue. it's the first time it has ever been reissued properly, sound-wise.

yeah, the numbers are just numbers. not a sign of merit. (although, like i said up top, those first four or five would be pretty high on most lists.)

scott seward (scott seward), Thursday, 22 September 2005 11:29 (twenty years ago)

I know the numbers don't indicate merit. It was just one of those "how did we get so far without..." observations. I still would like to contribute to this thread but it's kind of daunting.

473. Ladies W.C. s/t (Shadoks reissue) What if ESP-DISK had been operated by Business majors at Malibu Druid U.? The Venezulean campus of it, that is? Almost everything is this dish-ran-away-with-the-moonful-of-Cali inspired corn. I could live without the few ballads, but the Big Fat Drunk Chick insists on playing them loud: says they remind her of Brad Pitt in True Romance,as the hippie who lived on the couch with his Honey Bear bhong(made from plastic bear-shaped bottle of that brand of honey). I wrote a little about this album in Voice.
474./475/476. Thai Beat A Go Go vols.1/2/3 All imperfect; 2. and 3. have more good tracks, but 1. has more GREAT tracks: at best, mynd-shattering, subgenre-shattering/recombinat garage-bar-teenclub-at-the-edge-of-monsoon psychedelia (at worst, the same old shit in a different language, and sounding the worse for it: Thai can be yowly in a bad way as well as good-to-great way)

(Skot, never could get into the Paupers' Magic People: cornball rinky-dink Canadian self-stereotypes, even in mono)(even quad prob wouldn't help)(even if cute enough, no way psych cos no way delic). Good that you mentioned oft-overlooked Blues Project though. Folk-rock-blues-jazz for the most part, but(on these 60s albums, at least) pushed and torn by Danny Kalb's pre-Television speedfreak guitarbabble, and Al Kooper's Tourette falsetto:

513. Projections
514. Live At Town Hall
Then, competing with Electric Flag (and Rhinocerous and others), and in spirt of post-Pepper's, post-Woodstock, arenas/Vegas-calling (Mad Dogs And Englishmen,Ike & Tina's Revue, even Joplin's post-Big-Brother crews), we have the kitschdelic glitz of Al'sand Steve Katz' and Bobby Colomby's next project, which is like Tonight Show Orchestra of that era, dosed and promenading among forests of nitrous oxide canisters and body shops of ventriloquist's dummies, feat.

i thought the paupers were from boston? skip prokop was the man! even if lighthouse mostly sucked. try their second album ellis island if you don't dig magic people. the opening jam is epic. i do love magic people. in mono and stereo. i thought they had a great vibe. and there is very definite psych on it too.

523. The Savage Resurrection - s/t

524. The Mystery Meat - Profiles

Tim Ellison (Tim Ellison), Saturday, 1 October 2005 16:43 (twenty years ago)

xpost I think I read that at least most of 'em were from Terranna,and wasn't that the point of calling it Ellis Island? They felt like mashed-down Poor Immigrants, waiting their turn, after Magic People didn't do as good as predicted, Stateside, anyway.But 1) my stereo was not so good then; and 2) I haven't actually heard Ellis Island, but will check it out, thanks for the tip. (Yr. picks and mine are usually pretty close.)But also 3) they sang funny, and not in a good funny, but "opening jam" you cite on EI is what they needed more better of, so encouraging that they got more, anyway.

don, Saturday, 1 October 2005 17:23 (twenty years ago)

oh, it's a fierce track, that one is. i love it to death. there are two amazing songs on that album. i have always liked magic people for the arrangements, the playing, the songs, heck, i guess i just really like it.

I haven't even listened to it all the way through yet, but the guitar playing on that is cool and the guitar sound, too, and there are some way cool tracks like "Tahitian Melody" and "Remlap's Cave Part II."

530. Charlie Manson: Lie (pretty good for a bad trip, side 1 anyway: like Rounders' evil inbred cousins)
531. Sonny Sharrock: Black Woman (pretty beautiful for a bad-to-good trip, with Linda's kamikaze birthscreamsandstreams, inspiration to Yoko and "Whole Lotta" Planty alike, and study that, screamologist Dr. Janis [whom I also luv], and on "Bialero" she prettier than Puccini, and, although Sonny has yet to get into slide, which seems to have been his breathrough into all kinds of chops, he does some of his best strumming ever on first recorded incarnation of "Blind Willie," which reminds me of Muddy Waters' impression of Bird: "Chinese music," and indeed Chinese music can sound like this, Chinese and other Asian mountain music.)

Come to think of it, some of the more tribal moments of Big Star (esp involving reed instruments, like harmonica as "Life Is White" noise bandsaw in the garage while handy Dad's away) reminds me that they may have experienced some of the Insect Trustees' Memphis sojourn,or anyway their records, via mutual muso friends.
Big Star:
541. Radio City
542.Third/Sister Lovers (more good bad trips)
And if we're one tab over the line into 1970, why not back to '59 or, so, to one that was still being gainfully employed in the 60s:
543. Stan Kenton: City Of Glass (composed by Bob Graettinger, think that's the right spelling; title should be City of Phosphorous, and good head music for those with techtonic plates therein)(you'll know when you hear it---oh yeah, the Complete Sessions later on CD and even better)

I must say that the self titled "Os Mutantes" record is my favourite album of all time.

They've been dubbed the B"razilian Beatles", but they didn't have as good of a run (obviously). I consider their first album to be their best, but their second (Mutantes) is quite good too.

551. The Fallen Angels It's A Long Way Down

I've become obsessed with how great this album is. Had it for a couple of years before it started to grow on me, partly because the sounds seemed more terrestrial than the outrageous cover art, and partly because it starts slow, with the songs getting better and better as you get deeper into the album. Their strange, bummed-out slant seems miles beyond what their contemporaries were up to.

I read a funny excerpt from Mark Opsasnick's "Capitol Rock" about them playing gigs with Link Wray at some Southeast Washington biker go-go joint, at which they were not well received.

I still haven't heard their first album, and the expectation that it can't be anywhere near as special as Long Way Down makes me sorta not want to. Am I wrong?

the freak scene: psychedelic psoul. this was a studio-manufactured hippie cash in record done with session players doing ludicrous songs like "a million grains of sand." it's pretty cool.

more importantly, it's another project by rusty evans/marcus uzilevsky and other dudes from the deep. and i dunno why everyone's always rushing to pin everything he did as a "cash-in."

559. Alan Watts (w/ Henry Jacobs) - This is IT!

from 1962. I haven't heard the whole thing -- there's one 3 minute excerpt on 'the Wide Weird World of Henry Jacobs' compilation. it's a bizarre splice-heavy concrete documentation of a Berkeley 'Happening' and based on this one track it just shot to the top of my list of things to find.

milton parker (Jon L), Sunday, 4 June 2006 05:19 (nineteen years ago)

560. The Hooterville Trolley "No Silver Bird"

from "Beyond The Calico Wall" comp,but the only one unavailable on CD, only the vinyl version. A beautiful swirling message of reassurance to a first-time LSD user,not sleazy like Godfrey's version of Fowley's "Lets Take A Trip" on Pebbles 3; with the bassline of "No Fun" pre-"No Fun".

neil tacus (tacit), Sunday, 4 June 2006 05:35 (nineteen years ago)

563. Savage Rose-s/t (sorry if anybody's mentioned this) Sort of like first album Jefferson Airplane, but without Marty, also maybe with Ray Manzarek sitting in (thinking of relatively subtler Doors, like "Love Street").

oops sorry, it's all that LDS residont ov curse. Yeah, In The Plain, just wasn't sure that was old enough, a bunch of their others, too. Thomas Koppels died recently, but what a legacy. RIFP, damnit.

don (dow), Saturday, 8 July 2006 21:24 (nineteen years ago)

no need to apologize. we posted the same album at the exact same time.

568. beauregard ajax - deaf priscilla

just issued 1968 recordings by a band from my hometown (or one of them - oxnard, ca.). pretty cool mellow psych stuff with only a couple of duff tracks and plenty of great ones. since there was no original release this probably doesn't have the collector scum buzzworthiness it should.

this list would have gotten to 1000 a long time ago if i had just made a big list of singles. i felt like that was cheating for some reason. i never said they had to be albums. and there are singles on here.

scott seward, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:03 (eighteen years ago)

This seems like as good a place as any to post this as I recently learned an UNRELEASED SERPENT POWER album just came out!

http://www.dustygroove.com/images/products/s/serpentpowe_ourobouro_101b.jp

I have a copy reserved so as soon as I pick it up I will find out whether it makes the top 1001.

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:09 (eighteen years ago)

and yeah I've seen the Gandalf II thing around but I've been a little more hesitant to jump on that one.

Stormy Davis, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:11 (eighteen years ago)

How come that Randy Holden Population II album, which I have yet to hear, is not on this thread- was it not recorded in the 60s?

James Redd and the Blecchs, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 01:49 (eighteen years ago)

you can check out samples of gandalf ii on the sundazed website. it sounds worth buying if you like the first one, but i haven't picked it up yet. ditto that serpent power joint, but i get the impression that's more of a sprawling jam than the folky earlier stuff.

scott seward, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 02:14 (eighteen years ago)

oh yeah. i'm surprised i didn't list that, actually!

574. ceyleib people - tanyet

i just asked my wife how she would describe it: "mellotron, sitar and flutes... what i'm all about." all instrumental, if it qualifies as exploitation it's probably one of the more thought-out exploito albums. if the rare appearances by the drums were funkier it'd probably be more 'desirable' or whatever.

mike melvoin plays on it, too.

GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 02:18 (eighteen years ago)

also, the weird thing about it is that it's set up as two long suites with the short subsections generally taking place entirely in one speaker and then drifting across as they change.

Brent, Tuesday, 27 March 2007 03:03 (eighteen years ago)

i can't remember if i put that Dreams & Illusions album on here. I don't think I did. totally bonkers jazzy oddity on Verve Forecast from 1968. if you can find a copy - it's not the easiest record to find, but not too many people are looking for it, so you might find it cheap - it's worth, um, a listen. i would call it "exploito", but i don't know what the hell the dude was trying to exploit. definitely drug-influenced though. and he got Verve to put up money for it and provide him with a huge band:

James Sedlar, Marvin Shane (tp) Benny Powell (tb) Donald Corrado (frh) Jerome Richardson (fl, ss) Joe Farrell (ob, ts, fl) Melvin Tax (as, fl) George Marge (ts, cl) Ray Free (vln) Mel Olman (p) Al Chernet (g) Louis Mauro (b) Herbie Lovelle (d) Johnny Pacheco, Orestes Vilato (Latin per) Danny Schloss (vo)

probably sold all of five copies. dude that put it together was *danny schloss*. hardly any info on the web about it. i couldn't even find a picture of it! it's poppy at times, jazzy, exotica-tinged, stereo fx, weirdness, dementia...just not a ton of guitar which is why freeks won't pay 500 bucks for it. anyway, not great, but good and singular and weird.

so, i'd put that at 580. unless it's on here somewhere. this thread is long. i might have kept it off cuz i don't consider it great, but playing it now, it deserves a shot at the big time.

Anthologyrecordings.com, which I prob mentioned on here before, unless I only did so on Rolling Drone, has stuff you can sample onsite, and can buy a lot of it track by track. They've been picking up stuff that was only briefly reissued and/or distibuted elsewhere in the recent past, as well as stuff that's been buried for eons. Subliminal Sounds' Thai Beat A-Go-Gp triology certianly expanded my mynd re assumed boundaries of garage-club combos (Volumes Two and Three may have more good tracks than Volume One, but it has more GREAT tracks.) My Solid Ground and Saint Anthony's Fyre are real good too, but more 1970 than 60s, as the garden is scorched. Also, they've recently released B0bby B@aus0leil's version of the Scorpio Rising soundtrack, though most of the samples sound like dif takes of the theme, but the last two tracks are more intriguing, and kind of chamber-proto-metal, and of course those are the two that you can't buy as individual downloads. But the whole thing might be worth getting, if you don't mind where some of the royalties *might* go. (I guess the State of California's got that sorted out out, though, as with royalties from Manson's Lie album, the last time I checked.)

604. The Three Ring Circus - Groovin' On The Sunshine

I've become obsessed with hearing this record ever since discovering Scott's description above. But I can't find the fucker anywhere here in Austin. I'm convinced it'll be awful. But there's something about pseudo-psych that fascinates me. Maybe it has something to do with this quote from The Seventh Stream: The Emergence of Rocknroll in American Popular Music by Philip H. Ennis:

“A third alternative route away from the idea of ‘youth as revolutionary class’ was the notion that their culture would show the way. Music, drugs, the new consciousness, these would bring power to the assembled people, giving themselves, along the way, incidentally, a helluva show. It was an easy laugh, if a sad one, to see the trust and the naivete of the young being so easily exploited by the gurus and hustlers selling the dope and the new consciousness…These prophets (Leary, Charles A. Reich) married the logic of individualism to the belief in the effectiveness of symbol over action and came up with their own cultural road to freedom. If work can be made erotic in the same way that art is an erotic form of work, then all is whole again through the hidden magic that art carries – the ‘gift of life.’ Release transcends commitment through the power of consciousness. Sadly, history cancelled the checks. Programs based only on the institutions of release can not do the job of reclaiming the institutions of commitment. Consciousness of a situation by itself does not bring about change.” (309)

He also adds that the consciousness gurus were feared by the adult world and despised by the more politically single-minded youth of the time.

608. staff carpenborg and the electric corona - fantastic party

1970. is the use of rhythm totally awesome can-ticipation or are they just a bunch of jazzbos trying to get freaky and funky. the only exploito album that immediately springs to mind from germany (except maybe those asterix, pink mice, etc. records).

GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Monday, 4 June 2007 03:49 (eighteen years ago)

also, i should probably start trying to download or buy everything i don't have on this list. not that i haven't already checked out a bunch because of it.

GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Monday, 4 June 2007 03:51 (eighteen years ago)

staff carpenborg and the electric corona - fantastic party

Um, I actually dig this more than most Krautrock proper (ducks). Which begs the question of what the hell to call this stuff. Cansploitation? Krautsploitation? Is there enough of it to justify a new genre name? What do these "asterix, pink mice, etc. records" sound like?

Kevin John Bozelka, Monday, 4 June 2007 06:47 (eighteen years ago)

609. Rainbow Ffolly - Sallies Fforth (Sounds like a Beatles parody. Pretty, adept harmonies. Bits of commercial sprinkled throughout: "Hey listen, fellas, stop treating pimples like a girl and start fighting 'em like a man. Ya know, rrraarrr!" "Labour Exchange" begins with high heels clicking on wet pavement. Then an announcer asks: "Now tell me sir, what do you think of Rainbow Ffolly?" "Meow," a cat answers. The freakout in "Come On Go" includes: A drain sucking down water. A fart at 2:36. Mom asking daughter how long she'll be in the shower.)
610. Darius - Darius (For those as like their loner psych more blues-bottomed. "Dirty Funky Situation" follows "I Feel The Need To Carry On" which has crabby Darius looking out of the windows of the world with his arm around Burt Bacharach both in chunky sweaters drinking their favorite International Coffee ("Montréal Morn") and contemplating the fate of our doomed orb. Weak link - Darius' crybaby vocals which could make Mississippi John Hurt slug him in the gut. Still, his blues was dirty and funky. He could've been huge in Cleveland.)
611. Rust - Come With Me (The word "underground" appears at the bottom of the cover. So either the group is Rust Underground or Rust is asking us to come with them underground. Don't go with them. A very bad record. But I guarantee someone on this thread digs it. The cover looks like acid...)
612. The Common People - Of The People, By The People, For The People (David Axelrod composed/arranged three cuts and then split. Clearly, they were the first three cuts - bummer psych with an entropic layer of strings just a-wailin' up and down the scales. The rest is sub-sub Love with an awful, jokey oompah detour called "They Didn't Even Go To The Funeral." Hear the singer go poo under horns and Farfisa on the closer.)
613. Swamp Dogg - Total Destruction To Your Mind (He delivers the titular damage as much as most albums on this thread. Even uses the word "acid.")
614. Kim Fowley - Born To Be Wild
615. Kim Fowley - Good Clean Fun
616. Kim Fowley - Outrageous (His best from the uncommitted "Animal Man" to the very catchy "Bubblegum" to the apocalypto triptych to the actually kinda scary "California Hayride." As 1960s as Altamont.)

648. Patty Waters - College Tour
649. The Regiment - "My Soap Won't Float" (One IS the loneliest number, esp. during a bad trip. And the lyrics are up there with Dylan (please fill in the gaps/make corrections):

Chrome-plated candy bars and plastic-covered tangerines
They are nice to look at but you know that they are useless when you're hungry
TV personalities all look nice in black and white
Turn the color on, they're green!, it makes me want to eat ice cream
Eye to eye can't see your face because we're standing back to back
Colors fusing, the show is turning, transistor's burning, turns to black
Patchwork stitches never fail, mastermind ?
Brother's face is made of metal, ?, his mind won't settle

Paisley-colored kerosene
Can't brush your teeth to make them clean
Please dear won't you take a bath
You look so phony, you won't last

My ? makes so much noise
Couldn't sleep at night, ? all the toys
? rusty bolt
My fish can't swim
My soap won't float

Kevin John Bozelka, Monday, 4 June 2007 14:40 (eighteen years ago)

i would debate the inclusion of stuff like remains/third rail/castaways being on a psych list, but there isn't much to debate. they aren't psych! but kudos for listing other stuff that hasn't been listed yet. though, kevin, i'm wondering why you are listing some stuff that you don't like! we want good stuff on this thread. even if it's only one person's idea of good.

scott seward, Monday, 4 June 2007 14:46 (eighteen years ago)

Yay, no one's mentioned my favorite one to lay on people:

The Moles: "We Are The Moles"

hiding our faces/exposing our souls...

Jon Lewis, Monday, 4 June 2007 15:19 (eighteen years ago)

they aren't psych!

I KNEW something like this would happen after spending hours psyching-out (or not, as it appears).

I don't see how that The World of Oz album you listed is more psych than The Third Rail or Timon or Clefs Of Lavender Hill. "Liar, Liar" smells, tastes, feels like acid waaaay more than The World of Oz. Plus tons of questionable shit have made it past your radar: Miles (Live-Evil wasn't even recorded in the 1960s!!!), Ornette, Bringing It All Back Home, Stand, Music Machine, all the avant-whatsis stuff listed immediately above, etc. How psych is Fahey really? And I only listed one album I didn't like. I know at least one person likes that Rust album.

But it's your list so:

611. Jackie Trent & Tony Hatch - Mr. and Mrs. Music
694. Big Hits of 1967 (Cheese-psych remakes of "Whiter Shade of Pale," "Itchycoo Park," "San Francisco," etc.)
695. The Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus - The Kasenetz-Katz Singing Orchestral Circus
697. Hell Preachers Inc. - Supreme Psychedelic Underground
709. The Moles - "We Are The Moles"

What else? The Other Half? The Bluestars? Too punk? Episode Six? Too...what? Commercial? Polished? Moe Tucker drums. Creepy guitars. Creepier lyrics. 12 measures of a voodoo ceremony. Sounds pretty psych to me. Timon? Well, McCartney liked this song. And it's in the twee fairytale (and psych, sez I), mode of The World of Oz.

What else?

Kevin John Bozelka, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:09 (eighteen years ago)

you're definitely being more of a completist than a champion of quality, though I roffled at the Marcy picks

Dude, I already did The Moles! Though I forgot to number it... :(

Jon Lewis, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:24 (eighteen years ago)

no, it's not my list! it's everyone's list. i don't want to fight, brother. just speaking my mind. world of oz wouldn't have existed without acid. liar, liar could have come out in 1958. not that i don't love it. i totally do.

scott seward, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:26 (eighteen years ago)

"I know at least one person likes that Rust album."

no, i meant that at least YOU should like it. people, i think, are posting stuff that they dig on some level.

scott seward, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:29 (eighteen years ago)

& I missed your comment about how you honestly like all these records so I take back my comment about 'quality', passion is good

the two Fahey records I listed are pretty psyche

Milton Parker, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:29 (eighteen years ago)

741. The Magicians - Painting on Wood

everything, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:39 (eighteen years ago)

Ok sorry to get so bitchy. I really was up all night and still haven't fully recovered.

But just to reiterate: I like every record (apart from Rust) I listed here (to varying extents, of course) and many I absolutely adore.

I know those Marcy records aren't psych proper. But they're definitely psych in effect what with all those extraordinarily disorienting sound effects whizzing around. I'm genuinely stunned they were created for children. And I do like them.

Sorry to steal your Moles, Jon.

So:

709. Rajput & The Sepoy - "Up, Up & Away"
742. The Moles: "We Are The Moles"

Kevin John Bozelka, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:47 (eighteen years ago)

liar, liar could have come out in 1958.

I do have to respectfully disagree with this. It's all far too spacey for 1958, the falsetto chorus too demented. The entire track sounds like it just sucked in helium. To my ears, it betrays evidence of some sort of brain damage. Am I the only one hearing this? And I rememeber one critic saying that they looked astonishingly weird or something like that.

Kevin John Bozelka, Monday, 4 June 2007 22:57 (eighteen years ago)

747. dry ice - 1967-1969 (aka mary's meth dream among other titles)

pretty sweet pop-psych originals, some covers and some garagey stuff. i think one of them went on to be in angel. unreleased originally, acid archives compares it to july and that isn't too far off, but you know AMERICAN. "mary is alone" could've been the ending theme for an awesome drug scare film, "mary is alone and wants to live but all she sees is death/mary is alone and wants to live but all she sees is meth..."

GOTT PUNCH II HAWKWINDZ, Friday, 18 July 2008 12:40 (seventeen years ago)

The Hidden Places story was quite phenomenal. Original HP release was a needle drop which was replaced by a version from the masters when Perhacs was discovered still working as a dental nurse.
It's since been released on Sunbeam so is more readily available.
It has been compared to the lp by the Hawaiian commune band These trails who Hidden Places also reissued but I think the cd is long OOP.

these trails is a godlike LP - though its reissue was done by the band themselves. and yeah well OOP. it was also a needledrop so the masters are probably long gone

Crystal Siphon!
Found this link on Ilxor Tyler's blog, doomandgloomfromthetomb.tumblr.com. Comparisons to early Quicksilver are apt, but also increasingly like ancestors of early/live Television (also on Tyler's blog), if you've ever heard an early live version of the Dead's "Cream Puff War," you'll know how this kind of connection could be so very 60s and CBGBS-relevant too (without sounding like the VU or Stooges). "Fuzzy and Jose" starts good, gets bogged down, but otherwise groovy, esp in the second half

And speaking of early live "Cream Puff War," try this from a good live '66 Dead set--he's got one GD show from each year between 1966 and 1995, all well-chosen that I've heard so far, ditto many other artists, though most not psych

one year passes...

Any recent discoveries? Ideally I would download and listen to everything in this thread but i am feeling lazy right now. Are there any "Odyssey & Oracle"-style lost psych masterpieces that have been rediscovered in the past year or so?

262. Clark-Hutchinson - A=MH2
Just been listening to this again for the first time in a while, a record made by two fellers from (I think) the same UFO scene as Pink Floyd, Arthur Brown, John's Children etc. (Mick Hutchinson was Sam Gopal's guitar player for a while). Five long bent-as-fuck ethno-instrumentals, with Hutchinson's guitar trying to cut through the exact same radiant fog that cloaked the likes of Pharoah Sanders' Tauhid and the Sun City Girls' 'Space Prophet Dogon'.

I read an article somewhere recently taht said the original Sam Gopal Dream used to sound like this record or in as much as the band was Sam Gopal plus Clark & Hutchinson exploring modal improvisation with Gopal playing Tablas. But that band fell apart and Gopal recruited the line-up that recorded Escalator while Clark & Hutchinson went on with the modal improvisation. So been meaning to pick up the physical cd which I think has been available for a while on both Esoteric and Angel Air

Stevolende, Monday, 11 November 2013 10:37 (twelve years ago)

I don't remember seeing the 1st SRC lp on that list and I think the sound on that is very psychedelic for a detroit record. Hopefully be corrected on this by showing me a ton of others that psych more than dunt.

Also missing HP Lovecraft May 11 1968
Spike Drivers Folk-Rocking Psychedelic Innovation From the Motor City in the Mid 60's
The New Age All Around do get pretty trippy in those jams despite being an acoustic 3-piece
Action Rolled Gold
Frumious Bandersnatch A Young Man's Song - hopefully just missed seeing this
Conqueroo From The Vulcan Gas co - really need reissuing or a new compi being done was surprised nobody cashed in on the Sign of The 3 Eyed Men 13FE box set with anything.

Hadn't heard of him---but speaking of Chris Lucey, I believe (don't have my copy at hand) he appears on Michele's Saturn Rings, along with Lowell George, Elliot Ingber, a bunch of other West Is Thee Besters---Michele O'Malley was a session singer, also fortified The Ballroom, one of Curt Boettcher;s bands, I thihk; anyway, he produced this, and their hothouse professionalism guides some fetching, some wandering tunes and imagery---also the late 60s dream: she's taking a break from the gathering, reclining in her canyon garden, as the stars start to look different, aieee,,,
It's usally on the 'Tube, yeah here 'tis:

_the freak scene: psychedelic psoul. this was a studio-manufactured hippie cash in record done with session players doing ludicrous songs like "a million grains of sand." it's pretty cool._more importantly, it's another project by rusty evans/marcus uzilevsky and other dudes from the deep. and i dunno why everyone's always rushing to pin everything he did as a "cash-in."


Just came across this interesting memorial from when he passed in 2016: https://www.ptreyeslight.com/article/woodacre-artist-who-sang-johnny-cash-dies-78

He started out in rockabilly, walked around the Brill Building and 1650 Broadway plying his wares, then became a Bleecker Street folkie, then went psychedelic, then became a visual artist, then ended up dating the widow of John Stewart of The Kingston Trio somewhere around the time he became a Johnny Cash tribute act.
