Went with Gong. If Neu!'s first album were here, I'd have gone with that. Man, is that trippy! :-)

GonG and Can are definitely the tops in trippiness here.
I'll go with Can.

 I know exactly what you mean. Igor Wakhevitch did that with me...for a looooooooong time, and then I suddenly got it. I love spinning those kinds of albums - especially after long pause. Then you kind of see how much your tastes have developed.

Third, Tago Mago and Flying Teapot are the dead certain ones for me. Saucerful is almost there. Tanz I haven't fully digested yet. It's good, but it still goes a bit over my head, as all ADII albums I've heard does.

Tago Mago and Tanz are sheer masterpieces to me. Third? Sometimes but not always I prefer Volume Two. Saucerful and Teapot are personal faves and have been so for over 15 years, but I think both bands did better with subsequent releases.

Yeah, I count more than a couple. At least 3 I'd say, possibly 4.

I agree Audun. I love all these albums. A couple of genuine masterpieces among them too.

Five SUPERB albums right here. I would say Can from this list, BUT, the truly 'trippiest' album for my ears would have to be the DOM album Edge Of Time. I mean, I feel like I'm incredibly stoned when I listen to this one, but I'm not, trust me  . Haven't had anything for years......

It's between Soft Machine and Amon Duul II, decided to go with the latter.

If it comes to trip, Saucerful of Secrets is THE TRIP (for me). It doesn't mean that the other four aren't, but Set The Controls for The Heart Of The Sun and the title track do the job.

I could swear that I saw it up in the sky, only teapots I never knew they could fly.
