Attention 60s acid-heads

Being a late 80's Acid Ted this looks like a great way to sample the 60's Psychedelic scene. I might just get a copy lets hope for a vinyl version.

woah, that is eclectic. Doubt I"ll buy it tho. it was fun to hear some strange stuff on the radio back then, Yes I remember the 60s very well and never dropped. I remember FM coming in and a radio station WDAS in Philly let DJs do whatever. One minute it was Beethoven's 5th and the next Hendrix wigging out on guitar. Then Jefferson Airplane, CCR and then a little jazz and Beatles singing I am the Walrus. Radio these days is pretty boring.

I happen to have Spirit's Dr Sardonicus and found it really boring. Give me Berlioz Symphony Fantastique any day.

It's good, but there are better ways IMHO.

The best psych collection has to be Rubble compiled by Bam Caruso - please click here. The highlight of this entire set is Save My Soul by Wimple Winch probably the greatest single in the history of singles - it is the perfect three minute pop song.

The original Nuggets collection is good if you want to sample American psych.

Hmmmm .... Mr Mudwolf ...... I beg to disagree with you, sir. For me, Spirit's Twelve Dreams of Dr Sardonicus belongs on any desert island disc collection - it is an absolute masterpiece. I like Berlioz Symphony Fantastique too, but ..... Twelve Dreams of Dr Sardonicus is an absolute masterpiece. The greatest American psych album - not 'arf - probably the greatest record made by any American band IMHO (Though They Might Be Giants Flood would run it close).

oh well I only remember 2 of their other works that were more traditional. I'll have to listen to it again.

Ok ROTF when I'll get around to starting my Psyche collection I'll remember that, thanks.
