    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 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

    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.

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.

    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?

    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).

    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...

    Entire concepts in rhythms, harmonies, instrumentations, chord progressions/ chord changes and lyric styles seemed to suddenly appear sometime between 1965 and 1966, and then sometime around 1973 or 1974, they just disappeared as quickly and as suddenly as they'd appeared- Nothing that came after that was ever nearly as graceful, in my opinion- from the 1970's heavily commercialized album oriented rock, to soft rock, hard rock, metal, to today's indie bands, nothing ever recreated these sounds

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").
