Psychedelicatessen

EASTFIELD MEADOWS    Flightless Byrds? Eastfield Meadows were a short-lived Californian Country Rock group with a light tinge of psychedelia in the style of The Byrds, but without their success. 

EARTH OPERA       An East Coast psych band from Boston, MA, just a stone's throw away from a famous bar where everyone knows your name. Cheers! 

CLEAR LIGHT      A standout classic shining like a bright beacon in the psychedelic spectrum, Clear Light were managed by legendary Doors producer, Paul Rothchild. 

THE DREAM      Dream on if you thought this band are from California's west coast. No, The Dream are a Viking Psychedelic Rock band from Norway (although the Scandinavian accents might be a giveaway), featuring guitarist Terje Rypdal, who's not exactly a household name in Great Britain or America but no doubt well-known throughout the Norwegian fjords. 

DRAGONFLY       A Colorado band who were previously known as The Legend but changed their name to match the artwork on their album cover - although you'd be hard-pressed to find a Dragonfly on there.  

DORIAN GRAY      A German band with a female singer who sounds like she's singing in Japanese, but don't worry, it's definitely not Yoko Ono. The unusual album title isn't a spelling mistake and (according to the album blurb) Dorian Gray aren't to be confused with a Croatian band of the same name - as if anyone will have heard of an obscure rock band from the former Yugoslavia! 

DOGFEET      Why not paws for thought for a moment and check out Dogfeet, who sound like your typical bronzed, Californian west coast surfer dudes, but who are actually from the town of Shrewsbury in the landlocked county of Shropshire, England, where you don't see too many surf boards.  

DICKENS       What the Dickens is this? Dickens are a devilishly good French psych band with the lyrics all sung in their native language, and as you're probably aware, "Dickens" is a literary reference to the devil incarnate and nothing whatsoever to do with Charles Dickens. You learn something new every day at ProgArchives. 

DEERFIELD      A countrified Psychedelic Rock band from Houston in the Lone Star state of Texas, where there are cattle ranches the size of small European countries and where there are more guns than people with 9-year-old girls being legally allowed to fire Uzi 9-millimeter sub-machine guns. Careful where you point that gun! Yikes!!
