Extra Thursday Music Selection - Trippy 60's

Some psyche sixties grooves -

Gandalf - Hang on to a Dream



Them - Square Room



The Orange Alabaster Mushroom - Another Place



13th floor Elevators - Levitation (1967)



Jefferson Airplane - Fat Angel



The Fraternity Of Man - In The Morning (1968)



The Fraternity Of Man issued their first, self-titled LP with a supporting single ('Don't Bogart Me' b/w 'Wispy Paisley Skies') in 1968. The record was produced by the legendary Tom Wilson (Bob Dylan, Velvet Underground, etc.) and as a side note, Kim Fowley also made a guest appearance. Both songs on the 45 are excellent with the A-side being a strung-out country-western type ditty, openly touting the use of marijuana. Because of the song's lyrical content, it didn't get any airplay at the time, but about a year later was spotlighted in the hit film 'Easy Rider' and its huge selling soundtrack. This break gave the band some much needed national attention and the opportunity to record a follow up LP on Dot Records.

Axe - The Child Dreams (1969)



Axe were one of the most obscure acts in the field of psychedelic rock and hard rock of the late 60's. Their sole LP is one of the rarest albums, only 6 copies exist.

Country Joe & The Fish - Magoo




Enjoy.
