 Topic: 60’s garage-psych bands, who do you love?
Posted: June 09 2005 at 14:59 |

Yeas, who do you love... this fantastic Bo Diddley's song was covered within a thousand of bands also by Quicksilver Messenger Service & Blues Magoos, two of my preferred 60's band together with 13th Floor Elevators, Spirit, Seeds, Velvet Underground, Jefferson Airplane and many many others...
You, who do you love in this "magic field"?

Yes, I know, but Guru Guru wasn't a 60's psych-garage band anyway.... 
Also Italian pop-singer Edoardo Bennato played a song called "Bo Diddley"...

Yes, and you gotta get Nuggets II, an even better compilation. Well worth the $65 it costs new.

Yikes so many of them ... Jefferson Airplane, Spirit, Love, Iron
Butterfly, Vanilla Fudge, Electric Prunes, Strawberry Alarm Clock,
Quicksilver Messenger Service, Moby Grape, Great Society, It's A
Beautiful Day and 13th Floor Elevators ... I think I have about 30
albums by those bands ... and I haven't heard H.P Lovecraft and Pearls
Before Swine yet ...
My oh-so predictable Top 5 would probably be
Iron Butterfly - In A Gadda Da Vida
Jefferson Airplane - Crown Of Creation
The Electric Prunes - Mass In F Minor
It's A Beautiful Day - It's A Beautiful Day
Love - Forever Changes

Neil Young's Crazy Horse are a great "garage band". No frills, just pure, simple, unadulterated rock & roll.

Great Post! How 'bout some one hit wonders who started something...Music Machine (Talk Talk) and the Count 5 (Psychotic Reaction). If you young guys want a real eye opener find these and listen, you're talkin 1964...

I love 60's psych, US and UK. Among my favourites are Jefferson Airplane "after bathing at baxters", It's a beautiful day's first album, Love "forever changes". I recommend that anyone who likes dreamy trippy music should check out HP Lovecraft II.
Oh yeah, psych fans should check out Sundial's "Other Way Out" from 1990, real trippy dreamy prog-psych. Their subsequent albums are in a more garagey vein. I saw Sundial when they toured with their follow-up album in the early 1990's. My friends band (Stooges-MC5 clones) supported and were actually better, which doesn't say much for their live sound. Other way out is a classic of post-60's psych music, though.
Now that I am on the subject I have recorded some of my vinyl collection for a barmaid in my local. Looking forward to see how they go down...
