Psychedelic Minds, Vol. 1 (1967-71)
The innovative bands on this selection represent the innovative boiling point of the short-lived worldwide psychedelic rock movement between 1967-71, the years when garage punk evolved into heavy psychedelic rock with its wider soundscapes and complex improvisations. Vol. 1 contains a dozen 45-rpm songs by lost psychedelic messengers (8 US bands and from Germany, Peru, France each one). The groups included are Blackrock, Sound Machine, Yesterday's Obsession, Mastermind, Sangre Mexicana, Bhagavad Gita, Protein Bros, Purple Canteen, Los Nuevos Shains, Blow Mind and the A & B-side of the legendary Dirty Filthy Mud 7". About half of the songs are previously unreissued and appear in stunning sound quality. Enjoy this 45-minute lesson as Dr. Leary's students would do: "Turn on, Tune in, Listen again!"
