1001 Interstellar Psychedelic Recordings Of The 1960's

Uh... 59!

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 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...)

Actually, the group name is Friendsound, album title is Joyride. And you're right: It's awesome.

oops, yer right i got that backwards. ain't it the shit. that thing just oozes drugs. um, in a good way. oh hell, you know what i mean.

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.

you know it's very possible that wimple winch were the greatest rock band of all time. we'll let the future decide.

107. The Lemon Pipers - Green Tambourine
108. The Monkees - Head

Scott, it's never as good as the first time you hear it, but yeah.. I like it a lot.

it's true. you aren't expecting it when you first play that album. it's like something off of the first Coven album.

118 Quicksilver Messenger Service
119 Quicksilver Messenger Service - Happy Trails

What the hell, throw in their fine SF bretheren as well

120 Mad River

121 Savage Resurrection
122 Charlatans - The Amazing Charlatans

Might as well finish up all the IA stuff as well-

123 Lost & Found - Everbody's Here (this album's not too good. Actually, a downright disappointment when placed next to Golden Dawn and the GODLIKE Elevators)

126. Hal Blaine - Psychedelic Percussion
127. Yma Sumac - Miracles
128. 101 Strings - Astro Sounds From Beyond The Year 2000

one absolute must-own classic:

129. Emil Richards - Stones

130. Enoch Light - Spaced Out
131. Jean Jacques Perrey - The Amazing New Electronic Pop Sound of Jean Jacques Perrey
132. Bruce Haack - The Way-Out Album for Children (or Electric Lucifer but it's 1970, for you pedants)
133. Lee Hazlewood - Nancy & Lee
134. Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66 - Crystal Illusions

>the easy/curiosity side o' things..

now we are talking

135. Richard Hayman - Electric Latin Love Machine

783. Legay - "No One"

The Aquarian Age: 10,000 Words in a Cardboard Box

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JfY-_HhmW68

Ok those Classels are soooo not psych. Blame it on...damage. So:

729. Rochelle Rosenthal and the Kickball Queen: "Lottery"
730. The Sandals: "House of Painted Glass"
731. Jefferson Lee: "Pancake Trees"
732. The Mission: "Calmilly"
733. Oracle: "Don't Say No"
734. The Mission: "Gailing Made It"

And to keep it current:

the "special feature essays" sound awesome

hell yes. missed the first edition, then the dude took the website offline. which is LAME. but i gotta get that.

why did i think that the second edition came out years ago?

i have no idea?

okay, i was thinking of this. came out in 2005.

787. Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick & Tich - 'The Sun Goes Down'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLsj8NaQ1EI

That's great! Wow. I only have one 45 by them and it's not very psych, but they have a really nice roaring bass sound.

i like how my first post on this thread is just a list of the records closest to me on a shelf. i'm so lazy. the hobbits!

we could have gotten to 1000, like, years ago. so i'm not the only lazy one.

too bad this is 1970 cuz i'd add it. i SWEAR i saw this years ago somewhere and didn't buy it cuz i probably figured it was bloodsweat&tears rock or something. and there are horns, but, man, the good stuff on here is very very good.

i never started a 70's and beyond thread. should i? i think maybe i should. after all this time.

That Dave etc b-side was one of the first 20 singles I owned, and yes it's wonderful...

i never started a 70's and beyond thread. should i? i think maybe i should. after all this time.

You should. Is that Osmosis the band that did "Of War and Peace?" I have that on a comp and it is great.

yeah that's the one!

i'll start a thread tomorrow.

don't do it

really? why not?

Ha. Just kidding. Looking forward to it

scott - please do! I'm a long time lurker - but I gotta speak up and say I've been turned on to MANY incredible albums by your posts. Keep on sharing - and thanks brutha!

this is one of my favorite records. i was shopping in bk academy and Ian put it on and immediately i had to have it. unfortunately the title track isn't on youtube. maybe i'll rectify that later. spaced out, soulful, spiritual free jazz w/ really emotional spoken word/singing on top.

788. Jeff St. John & The ID: "Eastern Dreams"

Oh wait I guess that's 789. That Duke Edwards cut is really something else! Dying to hear more now.

OMG! How could I have forgotten this one???

790. The Inmates: "More Than I Have"

Pebbles Vol. 22 is bringing back such amazing memories:

791. The Regiment: "My Soap Won't Float"

My gawd this song is as epic as anything on the original Nuggets.

792. Eddie Harris "Silver Cycles" (the song, not the album)

someone tell me about Linda Perhacs. i guess her record was 1970, so it doesn't count, BUT... I have it on very good authority that it's amazing. do ya'll concur?

I take it this must have been answered at the time. it's awesome, almost literally. Breatakingly beautiful in places. Crystalline. Her voice plus electronics plus a small combo.
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

793. Chris Britton - 'Sit Down Beside Me'

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
http://soundcloud.com/roaratoriorecs

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
http://www.ousterhout.net/music-menu.html

35.Nirvana-All Of Us

this is my favourite album of the 1960's and one of my favourites of all time btw!

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?

Look up Los Mac's - Kaleidoscope Men

i never started a 70's and beyond thread. should i? i think maybe i should. after all this time.

did this ever happen?

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

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.

i just sold my 2002 rev-ola CD reissue of the bobby jameson / chris lucey album "songs of protest and anti-protest"

since i couldn't find steve stanley's liner notes anywhere on the internet, i decided to take photos for myself as a reference, and am sharing them here for anybody who might be interested:

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."

Sorry, 2015

Such a weird career.

really weird. have been listening to his 1970 "marcus" record — sounds like he's going for a tim hardin thing here but i'm not sure.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x7pZZsKKQg8

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.
