Sweet Pea+Work Song+Fendabenda Ha Ha-Friar Tuck

Three great fun tracks from 'Friar Tuck and his Psychedelic Guitar', actually a bunch of session musician's making a freak out record. Which they do very well indeed. Great vocals,guitar and effects...particularly like the drones on 'Fendabenda'.

Egyptian Kings+Jardins-Brainticket

Krautrockers Brainticket here with 'Egyptian Kings' and 'Rainbow River' from their 1974 album 'Celestial Ocean'. Probably venturing into the land of prog/new age type music, it still does the business.

Great cover too.

Diamond Day+Rainbow River-Vashti Bunyan

Getting a lot more mellow with the afternoon sun and Vashti Bunyan. Psych folk? Maybe...wonder when Diamond Day will be used in an advertisement....

Yes I Need Someone+Captive In The Sun-Eire Apparent

Possibly best known for the album 'Sunrise' being produced by Jimmy Hendrix, Eire Apparent were a Belfast band(originally called The People) that moved to London and were subsequently renamed and managed by Chas Chandler. The Hendrix and Animals influence permeate what is a great album in it's own right. Well worth tracking down.

Journey To The East-Bill Plummer and the Cosmic Brotherhood

Well Bill Plummer was a jazz bassist who featured on around 62 album's, numerous TV show and soundtrack's but this is definately his psych-out trip. Quite like how he keeps it together with nice short hair and sensible suit whilst enjoying the cosmic brotherhood. Superb.

Seven & Seven Is+Orange Skies+Your Mind And We Belong Together-Love

Keeping it West Coast and another 'biggie' with three tracks from Love. According to legend they would have been far better off calling themselves 'Hate' considering the bad vibes and clashes within the band, although if it wasn't for Arthur Lee we may never have had The Doors as he was supposed to have recommended checking them out to Electra records...

Great lyrics, great sound,great band. Love.

Break On Through+Waiting For The Sun+Queen Of The Highway-The Doors

Well, what can be said about The Doors that hasn't already been said? Not much other than they seem to get a bit of a bad press these days, a bit over-familiar maybe...maybe the Jim Morrison persona...whatever, the records are still great.
