I love to vary the music that comes out of my speakers. This automn I've discovered psychedelic rock music from the 60s and the 70s. That music can be truly psychedelic and really awesome. I haven't dived so deep into the genre yet but I'm on my way! 
This thread is for all of you who share my taste and are willing to give some songrecomendations. Here goes mine:
* Pink Floyd - Speak to me / breathe / on the run (WOW!!! All of you who have heard this one know what I'm talking about. W-O-W!! The last minutes reminds me very very very much about Hallucinogen. I bet Posford got influenced by pink floyd!)
* Pink Floyd - Money
* Pink Floyd - Us and them
* Pink Floyd - Any colour you like
* Led Zeppelin - Stairway to heaven (I really LOOOOOVE the guitarsolo in the end. It's so beautiful!)
* Velvet Underground - Heroin
* Velvet underground - All tomorrow's parties
* The Doors - Light my fire
* The Doors - Take it as it comes
* The Doors - The end (this is THE track. one of the best one EVER, if you ask me )
* Pink Floyd - Remeber a day
* Pink Floyd - Flaming
* Pink Floyd - Chapter 24
* Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit
* Jefferson Airplane - Aerie Gang of Eagles
* Jefferson Airplane - Lather
Hmmmmm... When I wrote this post, I realized after a while that the list could go on and on and on until eternity. But please, try to pick your favourites.
I don't know what the admins will think about this post since it isn't trancemusic. But come on, this is our ROOTS!!!  |

Grateful Dead*
But why single songs when you can mention albums?
Listen to EL&P - Brain Salad Surgery, and Tarkus... Amazing pieces of music by an amazing band.

try to win the obscure award?
How 'about: "Klaatu", album: "Calling Occupants"
In the super-groovin' jazz-rock front, Miles Davis albums: "In A Silent Way", "Bitches Brew", "Pangea", "Agartha".
All of it easy to obtain. Most of his early 70's stuff. Very spacey and abstract at times but with most fierce grooves and bad-ass go-for-the-nuts musicianship. Bill Laswell remixed many of Miles' 70's tunes into a single album, without butchering them with cheesy effects, called "Panthalassa".
"King Crimson", album: "In the Court of Crimson King"
Which includes "Epitaph" and "Moon Child". This one is a classic totally beyond the mold of 60's rock, very surreal.
Pink Floyd, the spearhead. Let us not forget "Ummagumma".
Damn! I want to bust out my vinyl again, a little Henry Cow perhaps, "War"...
My friend you have opened a whole new world of music, fucking brillant stuff.
and yes, i am a vampyre and have lived many lifetimes, in the night...

I dunno - I am familiar with the jist of this music (I got most of Pink Floyd, Doors ... but not the beatles) but its not music I go back to, perhaps because I found punk more relevant sorry that's not psychedlic but I always enjoy watching the Woodstock video thats about as close as I get to that scene.

Well then you owe it to yourself to check out the Beatle's "Sergent Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band" and "Revolver". I think "Tommorrow Never Knows" is one their best psychedelic songs. The White Album has the ever so trippy Revolution No.9, which is an experimental tape collage, the rest of the album is pretty rootsy though.
Also, the Rolling Stones did their take on that with "Her Satanic Majesty's Request". Very trippy.
How about the Moody Blues: they have a song called "Legend of a Mind" it's the one with the lyrics "Timothy Leary's dead...no no he's outside, looking in" it from the album "In Search of the Lost Chord". Some of their other albums: "Days of Future Passed", "On the Threshold of a Dream", "To Our Children's Children's Children" (one of my favs). The Moody's have a very surreal dreamy sound.
In the 80's XTC did a retro-60's psychedelic project called the "Dukes of Stratosphere".
Finally, Pink Floyd's "Echoes" from the album "Meddle" is a great example the floyd experimenting with sheets of sound, Check out the movie, "Pink Floyd Live at Pompei". This represents what Pink Floyd is all about.

Klaus Schulze, he was co-founder of the legendary German electronic band TANGERINE DREAM. During the 70's Schulze became one of the most acclaimed electronic musicians who was pioneer of Space and Kosmiche music, as well as a pioneer user of synthesizers and sequencers. |

i read it quickly and dont know if its mentioned but the most psychedelic sound coming out of pink floyd lies in their album ADAM HARTMOTHER. unbelievable stuff...
also check out FRank Zappa --- a huge catalog to go through but check out albums "freak out" and "were only in it for the money"
they are modern but i believe the most psychedelic band of all time is the japanese collective known as Acid Mothers Temple.....
