    that's why US garage is superior to the Brit Invasion Beat. The reverberated surf guitar bred with the new English Sounds. It's magical still.

    Part of that is the classic tank reverb "clapback", which, as of five or so years ago is fully replicable in a pedal: there's a chain of transistors that can be used for all sorts of hard-to-replicate-digitally analogue effects. But anyway, that's only part of the wetness: I'd love to figure out what else the guitar is using.

    It is called "synesthesia" (US English) or "synaesthesia" (UK). It also happens to me, and somewhat more intensely with some specific psychedelic songs (this one is included). You may have a look here. for a start: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synesthesia😎

    "Oh, colored pills I've found" turns out he was singing "Alternatives I've found". I guess that's what you could interpret here with a great psychedelic tune and no lyric sheet, which the Nuggets CD collection didn't come with. No complaint, if I can find a way I'm taking the whole Nuggets comp with and beyond the grave with me.

    yeah for putting down the digital vinyl reissues by sony emi & universal i have had my playlists put in an invisible side room if i press library my lists reappear on the left hand side.but if anyone looks i have no playlists they also cut my 10.000 garage punk psych rarities list into 4.8 k so ive lost 4200 gems on that list.i actually left some comments on discogs saying i was gonna start a campaign to stop the abuse of musical history these labels are doing.because every digital vinyl reissue ive compared has had criminal multiple overdubs purely to hide digital tech,s inferior sound spectrum,then 3 days later my account was decimated.im gonna email you tube this has obviously been done deliberately by one of the people that work for sony emi or universal that get paid to block & as ive been told by many dj,s bug up their playlists so each song cuts out to put people off of listening to their playlists.but now ive learned they bug up your account simply for saying the truth.yeah ive been working with so many people doing this & my list had 1.9 million views & after a you tube update i had 1.6 million views lol.but this is sly as fuck i did 18 playlists from over 30 years of searching the small independent labels but i did it all from original vinyl.yeah im really gutted bolt i put so much work into building these lists i feel like ive been violated & to top it off some dj has copied my name the cheeky fucker lol.i sent him a message & he has ignored it.ive got a band name as well but im only gonna use it when i upload more of our jams but its looking good playing hard & feeling it lol.but im noticing bands today steal old bands names so im not using it yet lol peace...
