I was lucky enough to see Hendrix play live; that was psychedelic at its best.
VC é feliz então mn, I AM BRAZILIAN 😂
I really appreciate you posting these; I was a wannabe hippie teenager back in the mid to late 60's, definitely some of the best days of my life.
I was SO into music; listening to it, creating it and playing it in our garage band, going to concerts, being a roadie for area bands, mixing sound in a small studio I built, and even being a disc jockey at several Texas FM radio stations.
I went on to work at some TV stations, worked on the set of Austin City Limits for awhile, worked at a music store in Austin, got to meet some pretty famous people in the business and am just major grateful for all I got to learn and do working with others in the industry who mentored me and taught me what they could.
But YOU, my little hippie chickie, YOU obviously know a LOT about our music from that era; this is an impressive mix you laid down here; I wish we could have heard all of each song and had you to tell us something about that song, that band, that artist, etc, but it's cool; I will for sure research some of this for myself on the I-Net.
Now how about telling us something about YOU, and how you came to know so much about this great music? Maybe where you lived and ran during those years, if you were a disc jockey or a musician, maybe some short anecdotes about your life at the time, and if you are still involved in producing music in any way...I'm sure this would be interesting to most of us old hippies out here, and maybe a few aspiring young hippies to be! Looking forward to hearing from you! Yer friend fer shure, "Dean From Abilene!"
I've always wondered what it would be like to be that kind of teen/young adult back then.. No doubt some real original trippy music was being made. Just started getting into it. Can't believe it's taken me this long!
I think it's a certain "mind set;" an attitude, an outlook on life; a "spirit," if you will. And to be a TRUE hippie in the most complete sense of the word not only requires all of that, but also a rather high level of intelligence. Anyone can do drugs and just get LOST in it and miss out on the fact that the type of drugs we did back then, pot, hash, mescaline, psilocybin, etc, were meant to not only be FUN, but also to be a TOOL to help enable one to see into and to comprehend other realities, higher levels of thought, upper level scientific concepts. From listening to you here and in exploring your other comments on other pages, videos you've watched, people you subscribe to, subjects you seem to be interested in, I would say you do indeed appear to be "one of those kinds" of people, my friend.
You may be considerably younger than those of us who were teenagers in the 60's and early 70's, but that "spirit" has always been, and will always be, alive, as long as there are people like you and I. It's important to be discerning, but that is NOT the same thing as discriminating in a negative way, of course; of knowing who is the RIGHT kind of people to hang with, and who is not; of knowing what are GOOD things to spend your finite TIME learning about during your lifetime, and what is NOT; of knowing what are WORTHWHILE
Sly Wolf Looking back at my 'baby boomer' generation, most is depressing save for the MUSIC which was so creative and great. 40 plus years later I am still discovering music as a teenager that I had missed ... It is truly a wonderful adventure .... Welcome to the Club, Sly Wolf.
texascommtech such a beautiful comment. As a musician this makes me want to dig deeply into 60s psychedelic music and learn what makes it tick even more than I did before. I feel as though my generation/myself have been in a bit of denial about our affinity towards old psychedelic rock music. I guess there are plenty of "jam bands" and even in some more "hipster" bands really paying homage but I think there is still plenty of space for us to rediscover something that has influenced our lives so much.
Thanks, Mr. Clark. I am always happy to hear ANY one discovering, or re-discovering, 60's and 70's music..even 50's and 40's music I have learned to be interesting, entertaining and fun. Of course I am passionate about music that was "happening" when I was "waking up" as a teen, but it's also been very interesting to explore such things as learning what kind of music was on the radio when my parents were kids, when they were teenagers, when they were young adults, when they were dating.
But back to the subject, possibly the two biggest things I remember about music from "back then" was #1, a lot of it was politically relevant. Listen to Street Fighting Man by Stones from Beggars Banquet. GREAT album. Sky Pilot by Eric Burdon and the Animals. Many others of course. And, a lot of songs about pot, LSD, etc; extremely relevant. But on "the other side of the coin," and at the other extreme, I remember a lot of songs were just flat out HAPPY. Not all, but most people just seemed to be excited, thrilled, grateful even, just to be alive! It was a very exciting time to be alive, and I am grateful to have been young during that time. There are SO many things about that time period; the attitude of a lot of people for example, the feeling of HOPE, optimism, positivity, etc, that I really wish could have lasted FOREVER.
I truly wish you the best, brother Clark. DON'T let this world steal your happiness, your motivation, your spirit. Stay happy, and spread optimism where you can; we so need it these days. Thanks for letting me hear from you.
PS: Sometime sign up for a free account with Last.FM. Choose "60's & 70's music," totally random. Let the computer choose the music for you. There's also some great users on YT who have done this, posting hours and hours or at least album after album of their favorite music from that time period. I try to stay current with what is happening TODAY, but there's also days when I'm working in the yard, house or garage and I have speakers all over house, shop and yard where I let that music play Sometimes I can actually forget I'm in this time period and go back "to the good old days" in my head. Kind of a mental vacation. I just might come back one of these days.
obscure but lovely songs,wish I was around in the 60s,definitely the best decade :) thank you for opening our minds
Having played in garageband in the 60s I really appreciate this collection. I could smell the cherry incense burning as I parted the hanging beads in the head shop to buy a pack of papers. Thanks for the trip!
Yeah, I remember those shops! With a handful of underground comics ( Zippy the Pinhead, Freak Bros.) and bong in the other. Why can I recall all that, but can never find my keys in the morning?
Hey man, I live in Boulder. It all never left man, you did. :)
Gary Bryan ...and walking into the Black Light Room with 4 walls of a thousand glowing posters!!
WHOA!! You just brought back some memories!!! Thanks!
Thank you LSD for making it all possible, i mean look how creative the album art is..
Dude--much thanks for posting this! Man, does it bring back memories - well, half-remembered anyway.Just great!
Thanks for including The Clear Light. They have a song worth listening to: "She's Ready to be Free".
Aorta, The American Amboy Dukes, The United States Of America, The Bubble Puppy, SRC, and It's A Beautiful Day are a few just off the top of my head. I also agree Blue Cheer got pretty psychedelic starting with their 3rd album, much more so on later releases.
Aorta ! Man, I wore that album out.
Metal heads need to learn
a lesson.
@@toneyisaiah408 I collect psych, rock & metal. Just always bought heavy fashionable music during all those decades' I have most of these records and I am a metal head as well. You need to learn a lesson. Great music was made all during the later 1960's, 1970's & 1980's. I doubt the musical creativity of those decades will ever be commercially advanced ever again. Music is just a statement about racial diversity like everything else in the mass media these days. Deep State controlled like this whole society. Not meant to please people of European descent. The Zionist Deep State desires a New World Order which they totally control.
Big omission,Frijiid Pink.Best version ever of the House of the rising sun
Good call, but with all comments posted you turn this into 100+ songs to hear before you die. Matter of fact, I want this in the background at my funeral, LOUD ! And beer will be served.
God Bless
I never thought I'd say this back then...but those were more innocent and creative times back then.
Oh my, I love it, such a bluesy tone! Thank you, mate!
So much creation and talent manifested in those few precious years - it was a veritable explosion of music!
I want to buy a volkswagen type 2 ,
put this music on it and drive without a direction
Grew up through the sixties, I still didn't know half these bands. However enjoyed them all thankyou.
Acid rock guitarists John "King of the Whammy Bar" Cippolina from QMS, John Fogerty from CCR, Robbie Krieger from the Doors.
Jimi, Gilmour, Jeff Beck (ARCHANGEL of whammy), Danny Weiss...REAL acid rock guitarists!!!
You can understand the amount of acid they consumed from the album covers...
I knew just four of them, btw.
Thank you for sharing!
What about "The Peanut Butter Conspiracy?" Look them up!!!
Hell yeah
Also 60s syd barret Pink Floyd too
Anyon here knows The Seeds?, the first psychedelic rockers?
i dunno if they were the first, but i love them (and not only me!!!)
Love em!
I know the Weed! But, down to seeds and stems, again..
PsychRock Hunter not my favourite group but I love their live album
Fucking Sky Saxon man! Legend!
The "space rock" band Hawkwind I believe started performing in the late 60's...Awesome band!
That was beautiful! The sights and sounds of when I grew up. Stuff I never heard before, great album covers and great songs that brought back memories . This made my day!
Damn...I have a lot of bands to hear before I die. These all sound fantastic though, great upload
Excellent intro to a lot of bands I didn't know about. You really should have included Bubble Puppy on here! Also, the US Kaleidoscope was supposedly more popular. Freaky!
Wish music was still like this
I'm really interested in the progression of rock music in the 60's and I'm surprised I've got a lot to learn.
I already heard 3 of those bands on my own (13th Floor Elevators, The Pretty Things and Iron Butterfly). 47 bands to go.
Thank you for this amazing source of music.
The Factory, The Creation, The Outsiders, The Attack, Andromeda, Magic Mixture, Mystic Tide, Lollipop Shoppe, The Bachs, Masters Apprentices, Mighty Baby, The Poets, The Other Half, The Remains, SRC, Human Expression, The Dovers, Daily Flash, Fleur De Lys, Q-65, Amon Duul, Kak, We The People, Arcadium, Jason Crest, also those are a few that came to my mind.
this is exactly what i was looking for,thank you so much,i'm so obsessed with 60's music :)
I made my Mother cry when I sang the lines 'be the first one on your block , to have your boy come home in a box' after that she backed me up in my efforts to stay out of the draft...powerful
My mother also wanted me to stay out of the draft as I went to college and got a deferral . I don't know if my mother heard that line from COUNTRY JOE AND THE FISH 's " I FEEL LIKE I'M FIXIN' TO DIE RAG" as my brother had that album and played it often .
Fantastic- some really unusual and nice sounds from the sixties. My favourite bands from the sixties were The fab Beatles, The Searchers, The Hollies, The Tremeloes, The Moody Blues, The Association, Traffic,Nirvana and The Cowsills. But there are indeed so many great bands just waiting to be discovered. You deserve credit for bringing so many to the forefront once again. Best Wishes, Tony
Great great compilation! Well done!
I'm 17 and ever since I was 14 Ive loved this type of music it's not just oldies!
Please somebody make a playlist in spotify with all these songs and reply this with the link. Do it and the world’ll pay you with an unforgettable trip
I would happily buy it.
I really enjoyed this walk down psychedelic path. Every song a winner in my book of Great tunes. Im still alive so I guess I got my 50 worth and I loved every minute of it. Thanks
Nice list. Saw a few of those bands. Had quite a few of the albums. Actually got high with Iron Butterfly! Clear Light was a pretty good group back in those days that didn't really go very far. But I had the album, loved it. Of course Quicksilver and Strawberry Alarm Clock were popular groups. Pearls before Swine was a strange album--I had it, but really didn't play it much. Again, fun list. And yes, you forgot Pink Floyd and a group called Aorta. Good job!
Pink Floyd is not obscure. However, Love is not obscure either, and they made the list.
Thank you very much Saira for your publication, I like psychedelic rock and more than half of these bands I had never heard before in my country Uruguay.
After listening to them I started searching the WEB where I could get these CDs and I already bought more than 20 CDs from different sellers.
All this thanks to your publication, I hope to hear others in the future.
Geez, I have a lot of these lp's in my collection, and there is a lot of good music to be heard from these bands. Missing from the list - the Beau Brummels, Blue Cheer, Earth Opera, the Hour Glass [early Allman's Band], Orpheus, White Chocolate, Glass Harp, Head over Heals, Chambers Brothers, Bloodrock, Blodwiyn Pig, anyone have any others?
+1blastman The Seeds, Jacks, The Move, Tintern Abbey, Felius Andromeda, Kaleidoscope and Fairfield Parlour.
'Flight from Ashiya' by Kaleidoscope should definitely be on this list!
+Kodanshi Helcarver You're right about Kaleidoscope, I have one of their LPs plus the Move's. This will take me back in time...... nice flashbacks!
Can recommend from May 1969 Unicorn by Tyranmosaurus Rex and even though it was released in November 1971, Woman Child by Marsha Hunt.
Another early version of the Allman Brothers was Allmen Joy.
One I see missing from this list is Fever Tree. Most might think them a one hit band for "San Francisco Girls", but they did 3 albums, all with good material.
There was also Illinois Speed Press, Savoy Brown, Ten Years After
WOW! What trip down memory lane, from someone who was there, and remembers most of those groups. I also thought of The Left Banke (Walk Away Renee and Pretty Ballerina) from that era. A lot of work went into your compilation. Good job! And thanks.
How about The Ugly Ducklings, Blue Cheer, The Paupers or early hawkwind?
Definitely hawkwind
The Banana Splits 🍌 🐶🐵🦁🐘
Thank YOU!!!! what a trip backwards. Some good musicians really.
#12 is a cover. Paint it black was composed by The Rolling Stones.
well, I've certainly got to add to my cd collection now- I still continue to be amazed at how the musicians from my parents era were able to continuously create such amazing music with such primitive technologies- These albums were recorded with analog recording equipment that's archaic compared to today's technologies, and yet so few of today's progressive rock musicians, or musicians from any other genre for that matter have any idea how to play like the bands that LHTD is showing here...
Great list...I've listened to about 20 or so before. I would add, not in order: The Amboy Dukes, The Nice, Spirit, Procol Harum, and the most notable omission, Jefferson Airplane
Yeah, the most important band missed is Jefferson Airplane, it was a really good band
Journey to the center of my mind!!!! That's what psychedelics were all about!!! Also SRC .
@@larrysweet5275 Yet...Nuge was straight when composing!!! He told me.
i know one woman I'd like to meet before i die. my son and i are absolutely thankful for youtube because he gets to enjoy real music. tx saira
Conspicuous by their absence Hot Smoke and Sassafras, The Bubble Puppy , And Pictures of Matchstick Men,Status Quo
The Root Boy Cooks ! I saw the bubble puppy perform 2 or 3 years ago at the Texas musicians Museum in Irving Texas of course they played hot sassafras and the rest of that album. I think they only had that one album out. They had issued copies for sale at the show naturally they signed autographs for me and the bass player was wearing a ruffle on his neck chest like Paul Revere and the Raiders I met the most beautiful girl there her name was Jan and damn it never got to see her again
doncha love suddenly hearing a song you grew up with in the 60's but have not heard since way back then, but something like THIS pops up and a flooooooddd of memories knocks you over. sweeeeet! and what a lotta work this was! appreciated!
ok Floyd ; how many of these do you remember? Oh and Iron Butterfly does not count as obscure. And neither do the Electric Prunes. Or Strawberry Alarmclock. I think an old friend of my brother's had all this music.
The chocolate watch band, December's Children, O, yes The Electric Prunes, Quicksilver Messenger Service who I did not like and Strawberry Alarm Clock.
floyd rains I knew you among all my friends would know these =P
mirror of your mind we the people, shape of things to come max frost & the troopers, time has come today the chambers brothers
underground radio with b. Mitchel Reed
floyd rains oh Yeah! I remember underground radio... ya had to keep the stereo on and hope they were broadcasting over top the fcc regulated junk. LOL!
I was too young to appreciate the progressive sound but I am glad I have a brother and sister that loved it and it slowly grew on me. My mom loved it too especially procol harum
Excellent. Thx for posting
I'm trying to find a song I had on cassette from a friend. The lyrics went 'this is the season, stormy weather's on the way'. Anyone know it?
"It's Alright Ma, It's only Witchcraft" by Fairport Convention?
Justin Pettit Yes! Thank you:)
I will have to check these out as a lover of 60's music. I did get to see Aum they were great. Actually have been in touch with the guitar player.
You have any contacts?
I learned something! cool stuff!
Fantastic documentary, thank you. Amazing how this genre, lasting about 18 months, not only left quickly, but except for real music fans, like me, is scarcely remembered. I remember walking past a small garage, many times, in Redondo, when I was 7 years old, hearing a garage band, like these, and thinking how much I wanted to be a rock musician. "Mouse" is another band
Groovy list, man. Far out.
Thanks @Saira for your research and putting all these together! My homework will be to try getting through every band on that list this week. Cheers
Want all of these records
Great post here, really enjoyed it!! Aphrodite's Child, Bubble Puppy, The Electric Junkyard, Frumious Bandersnatch, Gong, The Lemon Pipers, Moby Grape, Procol Harum, Rupert's People, and the very first (pre-Motown) Rare Earth album Dreams and Answers are a few examples from my collection.
moby grape. sacred mushroom
Moby grape were not really obscure very good band.
OK, so can you post up entire songs by bands from back then? Thanks!
Some really good choices. I would add KAK, Comfortable Chair, Fever Tree and Peanut Butter Conspiracy and expand to a top 100
Look at the description
Fantastic. Thank you for enabling me to fin some great bands that I didn't know of. Having a nice time listening to The Growing Concern as I type. Thanks!
To add to the list of greatest psychedelic bands, What about Frank Zappa and The Mothers Of Invention??
Yes, they were great, but not obscure, which is what this list is about.
Mike Drennan my sentiments exactly. Anything on freak out at least right?
The were not obscure very overrated some ok stuff.
Thank you soooo mjuch for this! Awesome!
excellent list, many classics and many missing of course (the list need 300 entries at least). I just miss this time so much. I wish I could live my life in the 50's 60's 70's and start again forever. Great music (from blues, folk, rock'n'roll, surf, garage, psyche, prog, funk, hardrock, punk, world, etc) great cars, lots of dreams, and beautiful people. The 80's was the beginning of the end: ugly plastic cars (who collect 80's car today???) shit music made with horrible computer sound, without heart or souls, ugly ridiculous hair cut (look at the pictures, so funny that nobody would have hair like that today even for 10.000 dollars).
+insidethesound ..I have to agree bro...I have listened to music from the sixties and until now. There are still some terrific musicians around NOW though, like Radiohead, Muse and Doves. and heaps of other great bands, but you have to search for them because the dumb commercial radio stations refuse to play good music. CHEERS MATE
Thank you urban for posting this great collection. Some of these old records are a must have. Especially those of the UK Band Kaleidoscope.
Kaleidoscope were among the best from the UK and so underrated at the time...
Great list, but if you really want to show off Quicksilver Messenger Service, it should be Pride of Man or Mona.
Montag Musik ...but those don't even compare with the two lead guitars of Johnny Cippolina and Gary Duncan ripping on Fresh Air!!
Fantastic list, and kudos for putting it together. Of course, no one will be completely satisfied, including yours truly, but you've done a masterful job of compiling this, if, in fact, you did this yourself. I'll be adding a few over time as I go through the video. I'd start by mentioning 2 Canadian bands, My Indole Ring, and the Seeds of Time. Also, I personally would consider Afterglow more sunshine pop, but there are some fine, borderline psyche songs on the LP...
Saira, Your List is Far Out! Quicksilver is one of my favorites of any genre of music. You people complaining about this or that band ain't on here, Mellow Out Man. Make your own list and post it, I'd love to hear it. OhhhhhhhhOhhh-Have another hit-Of sweet California Sunshine.(Please stay away from the brown acid). Peace-Love
Don H ...and it doesn't get any better than the two lead guitars of Johnny Cippolina and Gary Duncan ripping into Maiden of The Cancer Moon!!
i always come back to that video since 2014. A real treasure
The late late show on KLRB Carmel-By-The-Sea
I'm always coming back here even though I already know all of this bands, but I just love this compilation
Is that a Hieronymous Bosch at about 10:00 in the video?
Similar, but I doubt it. Bosch was smoking and/or dropping some serious shit back then, but still love his work
close... it is a section of "the triumph of death" by breughel the elder, courtesy of the prado museum, madrid, spain
No it's not, Gary was right. Bosch was used on the cover of Deep Purple's third eponymous album, the last one with Rod Evans on vocals.
through some sort of Mobius factor, there were actually more garage and psychedelic bands in the sixties and early seventies than there were people on earth. Don't know how that happened....thanx for introducing so many I've never heard of.
If U listen to the Incredible String Bands album", 5000 Spirits or layers of the onion" , backwards u will be able to smell colors.
Ha ha he he . Now, THAT was Reeelly FUNNY that was :D
Interesting!! Because I wore that album out and smelled the colors forward!! :)
David Evans--- :)
Far out! What a trip! Thanks for bringing back those times.
#23= cover song: original by paul revere and the raiders (1966)
and we all kow the song of #12 is a cover and what band performs it first... or not?
Awesome list! Some of my favorites on here and lots I haven't heard as well, thank you!
Vanilla Fudge.
Fudge never wrote anything cover band
Love all this style of music, always something to learn - I have all these records either in original vinyl form or on cds
A couple of Marc Bolan related bands you missed out Johns Children and Tyrannosaurus Rex.
This is the second post that misnames Marc Bolan's band. They were just called T. Rex
T-rex was post Unicorn album. They shortened their name.
Not Psychedelic in any way.
@@StarconOne T-Rex were originally called Tyrannosaurus Rex
These Bands, there songs is groovy. Sonic Boom on Spandina location in Toronto carries most these bands, they have Psychedelic selection for CD's & Vinyl's too.
Music 60's is a best.
Wow! You really did some homework on this. Staple it together and call it bad weather.
I would love to aquire a CD of all these songs. True 60's psychedelic tunes.
Lots of other songs that we loved considered psychedlic... you know "White Ship", "Inna Goda"... "White Rabbit' etc... These songs you have posted are for the most part part, unheard of. I enjoyed all of them. Thank you posting.
Quicksilver Messenger Service
I`m always searching something new to hear ( talking about 60's and 70's music. Now i find a lot of music to enjoy .....Thanks LH
¿Cuántas han muerto por sobredosis y cuántas siguen activo?
Aorta, was ubelievable live, saw them quite often in the late 60s..
Leaving the Blues Magoos off of this negates this entire list! How irresponsible of you, Mr. List compiler! What were you thinking?!? They practically invented this space!
SHEESH!
I really thank you for this list, every single band is genious BIG THANKS!
and THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA should be #1!
I remember The United States of America...I got their extended CD...they were my favorite.
Hector Gonzalez Joe Byrd and the Field Hippies. Right? Toss in the Banshees, Lothar and the Hand People, and Spooky Tooth.
Ronald Vaughan that’s a great one
Impressive collection. I used to have albums by some of these bands, but some I wasn't familiar with. My first exposure to Underground Music was through Penn State's radio station. Later I was an avid listener to Beaker Street out of Little Rock(This was a fantastic nightly place to hear some great Underground Music believe it or not!). This was a great era of musical innovation. One group I used to like that you didn't cover was the MC5.
You missed two very important bands:
*CREAM
*JEFFERSON AIRPLANE
Hardly obscure bands, yuri
I lived the 60s and didn't know of
Half these groups but
Had a flashback.
Thanks john
I kind of wanted Pink Floyd's See Emily Play in there, but oh well
Pink Floyd ain't obscure at all.
Etienne Duclos Pink Floyd song "set the controls on the heat of the sun" is't Oscure Rock.
Good stuff! CHOCOLATE WATCH BAND (first two LPs), THE ELECTRIC PRUNES (first three LPs), FAINE JADE, FALLEN ANGELS, H.P. LOVECRAFT, IRON BUTTERFLY (of course!), the other KALEIDOSCOPE (the one with David Lindley) (both LPs), THE LITTER (both albums), LOVE (yes yes yes!), THE MISUNDERSTOOD, THE MOVING SIDEWALKS (before they became ZZ Top), THE PRETTY THINGS (S.F. Sorrow is a MASTERPIECE!), QUICKSILVER, THE SMOKE (My Friend Jack eats sugar lumps!), STRAWBERRY ALARM CLOCK, ULTIMATE SPINACH, and of course, the ELEVATORS! (The first two elpees are ground zero for Psych!). You gave me samples of many groups I'd heard and not heard of, but not yet heard. Lots of listening pleasure ahead. Thank you!
no cream?
or jefferson airplane?
C Deen Agreed but these are more obscure that most folks won't be too familiar with.
true...they still are bands to "hear before you die"...and just thought they really shouldve been in there anyhow
C Deen lmao this is for obscure bands dude, everyone has heard of Cream or Jefferson Airplane. Look on that list, see anything mainstream? I didn't think so.
+xinfeQionx depends who you know. some yuppies dont even know about them. just because they are famous to you and people you know.. doesnt mean they shouldnt be on this playlist ..(or even a less popular song by them) of 50 psychedelic bands to hear before you die. Last time i checked that was the title of the playlist-not for obscure psychedelic bands. speaking of obscure...Quicksilver Messenger Service, the Grass Roots Strawberry Alarm Clock..The Seeds..Iron Butterfly ..are not so obscure. They had their spotlight in their day. Maybe the title needs revising because many ..i would think ...would agree that the famous bands (who highlighted the American psychedelic sound and lyric ..and soul..undoubtedly deserve to be on a "psychedelic list to hear before you die").
The video alone is great music history. Your listing of the song titles and long list of additional groups really took me to school. This was pure escapism and fun. Thank you for such a cool posting. Keep on rockin'!
Bubblepuppy????
Thanks for postin' this.....listing the groups and the songs took time and is gonna help that person whose dyin' to remember the name of a group or song............I really liked 'The Art Of Loving'.....I'll be checking this channel again
As a fan and indeed creator of Psychedelic music myself (at this very time) it's clear why most of these bands were and remain obscure. I've learned it is always mediocre to be into a style. Most of anything are mediocre by nature. Most of the bands sound like a cross between Jorma Kaukonan meets the Monkees. Cliched, all alike and undifferentiated. ie formless and boring.
Compare to the greats; Hendrix, The Beatles, The Grateful Dead, The Doors, The Velvet Underground, Jefferson Airplane, Syd Barrett, Pink Floyd, Funkadelic, Sly and the Family Stone, All different and distinct. These real talents did not follow fashion but created it! And we remember them for it. Most of the songs here are clips. Actually having to actually hear the whole thing would be unbearable. Every time has it's majority of mediocrity, Even the great 60's; as this collection so clearly proves, Yes a couple of unknown songs sound interesting and I will check them out. Thanks for that But many be 5 out of 50. Not so good!
MegaRaven- I disagree with your assessment- It's easy to say all these bands sound like a similar style, but you are trying to be a critic of groups that made music almost 50 years ago. You have to take into account that a lot of these bands were making recordings in very inferior studios with even more inferior recording equipment. Sometimes, it could just be an issue of getting a big break or not- everyone can't be a star! Don't rule out the benefit of the right producer or engineer, in being an issue too. I have heard most the bands listed in the 50, and in fact, have a lot of records by them. Everyone is entitled to their opinion, but I love most of the music listed.
Every generation is going to have a certain style- you can say the same about the mid-late 70's with their disco twinge, or wah wah pedals, or 80's with their syns. Then you can look at today- auto-tune? Sampling? Sounds like a complete lack of creativity and the fact that record companies seem to encourage this crap, just so long as someone will buy it. Again, you are entitled to your opinion, but to me, groups like those played in the clips, for example Electric Prunes, Iron Butterfly, Pretty Things, Strawberry Alarm Clock, etc., are better than anything created since!
Stop abuse of psychedelics yes but totally ??? nope! The idea that something can only be good for one decade is irrational and untrue.
Heroin was popular in the early 70's and cocaine in the mid to late; They were ALWAYS a bad idea, whatever the decade. While LSD was always a dangerous thing to play with it has great results for those serious creative few seekers who use them sparingly and consciously.
Speak for yourself
I have all of these (both lists) in my record collection, although some I haven't listened to in quite a while, thanks for refreshing my memory
List started so great! Afterglow were amazing! Can't afford original copy of album, but do have it on CD & vinyl reissue!
Yes, I was born in 1980 & love this music more than any other
