Vanilla Fudge is by far the sweetest song for me. Just my Thoughts.

Love most of these. Just not too crazy about that Vanilla Fudge album. I was actually quite eagerly awaiting that Revolver 2022 mix. Primarely because of Tomorrow Never Knows. And I must say it's actually all I hoped it would be. I feel that it sounds closer to what just about anyone would prefer (sans Moshkito of course) - the band themselves includeed. Anyway, it got my vote. |

Tomorrow Never Knows as it is the earliest on this list (and maybe the first ever). It's also the one I know best. ------------- Follow your bliss |

| "Tomorrow Never Knows", "See Emily Play", "The American Metaphysical Circus", "Oscillations" and "A Certain Kind" are particular favourites of mine, and ultimately it's between "Oscillations" and "The American Metaphysical Circus" and , as both are from "the States", The United States of America will win that civil war battle for me. Nice poll. |

The USA. Epitome of true psychedelia. ------------- ...a vigorous circular motion hitherto unknown to the people of this area, but destined to take the place of the mud shark in your mythology... |

Normally Beatles but I saw Aussie Pink Floyd perform See Emily Play just over a week ago and they nailed it. I love that organ sound, just so classic and timeless. |

btw Scottish band Nazareth did a really cool version of My White Bicycle in the 70's which I remember loving a lot growing up. |

That was a good one! I actually saw Nazareth at Mapleleaf Gardens in Toronto. They had some tunes. In this poll I went with Traffic's Dear Mr. Fantasy but there are so many cool songs here. ------------- "The wind is slowly tearing her apart" "Sad Rain" ANEKDOTEN |

Let me be the first to vote for my white bicycle. Great song. And for those who don't know but think the guitar sounds familiar yes (no pun intended) that is Steve Howe.
