The Guess Who were a band that if one didn't go beyond their radio hits..one had no clue as to their depth and variety.
Thanks, Alan!
Einerson wrote a great bio about the Guess Who.

FEVER TREE another great Texas band that was way ahead of their time,
combining jazz, heavy classical and psych rock. These guys were number one tripping band...
drug free! They got me high!
Not a better cover of "We Can Work It Out/Daytripper", guys!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Y9Z1M7XrMI
And a song that gets me soaring every time!! THE SUN ALSO RISES
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qPGqEWxfYMU&feature=related
 I never tire of Fever Tree...in my top ten psych bands, ever!
A lot more are featured on youtube so keep on keepin' on! Also the first two LPs are
available at Amazon on a low priced double CD.
OOOOH, one more! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T9b7Sn-qAWE&feature=related UNLOCK MY DOOR
The raga rave-up guitar break really rocks!

I don't know if we can place the Belfast Cowboy here, but for me, Astral Weeks is a pretty
trippy album and if psychedelia is about mind expansion...it fits just fine. And Moondance....
One of my favorite albums is Saint Dominic's Preview....the whole LP puts me in a
California psychedelic state of mind...even if it is post-LA psych scene. Such great
songs..."Almost Independence Day", St Dominic's Preview", "Listen to the Lion",
"Redwood Tree" are among the best ever by Van!
Yeah, I think we could rename Van the "Belfast Psychedelic Cowboy"...Jackie Wilson said,
let it all hag out!

Clear is one of my all time favorite SPIRIT albums. A bit of everything for us here.
This has always given me a trip with it's off-kilter, out-of-tune, tongue-in-cheek...I don't really know, it just has something mind expanding for me.
"The Policeman's Ball"

Then for one of the most chilling, mellow psychedelic instrumental masterpieces...ICE

Possibly the most beautiful war protest, love song to
emerge from the '60s. One of my favorites ever!!
(if you can, get the ESP Disk complete recordings...both Lps are on it.
One Nation Underground and Balaklava!
Pearls Before Swine.....BALAKLAVA
Maybe one of the strangest, most beautiful psychedelic albums to come
out of the 60's.
TOM RAPP was really all the band with backup guys that changed over
the bands life. He was a draft dodger, anti-war, folk rocker that in his youth
beat out Bob Zimmerman (Dylan) in a Minnesota talent show.
They both bloomed...in different directions but both are equally brilliant.
This may be one of the most beautiful psychedelic war protest, Zen, love
songs to ever be recorded in the 60's. With it's seagulls crying, ocean waves
crashing, bells tinkling and piano, organ and strings, it is uniquely brilliant.
Enjoy....I saw The World (click on iLike play, please)

| Probably "Section 43" from Electric Music for the Mind and Body, by Country Joe and the Fish. I saw the Fish in about Fall of 1967. We were in SF on a PR job that used to bring me up there. I saw a poster (guess where?) that indicated they were playing at Santa Clara High School!! We went and stood in a gym with high schoolers and chaparones digging the Fish. HaHa. |

Some of the best psych you'll ever hear....sounding very Spirit like
on the vocals today....anyone else hearing Randy here...a la Nature's Way? (the title track "Puzzle" has that sound that infects and hypnotizes)
The instrumental stuff is as good as Country Joe's "Section 43".
PUZZLE...A MASTERPIECE OF PSYCH PERFECTION.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VnsxmH0RyDA .....PUZZLE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hjBIh-WsKpI&feature=related ....Earthfriend

You owe yourself a listen....get it if you can!

| Listening to "Season of the Witch" by Donovan. First big concert was Donovan at Anaheim Stadium in 1967. It glowed blue inside...with Donovan on a low stage sitting lotus position with Indian Lei's on him, flowers all over the stage and burning incense....whoa.... |

Donovan was a trip. Love his music and the man. He was maybe the
first to openly display the psychedelic side of life in his music and
person...you definitely knew he was doing a bit o' love grass...along
with a little mind expanding...

| I love it in "Don't Look Back" when Dylan meets Donovan in the hotel room and they trade tunes. Then Bob thereafter tongue-in-cheek references Donovan to his audiences in the concerts. I mean, Donovan was in no way a copy-cat but then would it make any difference if he was? |

Yeah, that is a cool segment. Of course, Dylan made fun of ANYONE
in his way, back then....was he ever without tongue-in-cheek? The song Donovan
played for Dylan seemed pretty lightweight compared to Bob's tune...Baby Blue,
but Donovan went on to prove his importance and validity
as a songwriter and ground breaking act in so many ways..he is still
underrated!
