Time - Before There Was...Time (1968)
Thanks for mentioning them...they  never released that until 2004....I just listened to part of it on you tube...interesting.
It amazes me that I still run into these obscure things I have not heard of ...and I look for them btw. Shocked

Aallriight, Paul, I guess that was sooner than I magined, thank you very much.
And very impressive with your alphabetically chosen list - it might become some kind of not big but nevertherless, a historical moment in PA history - who knows. Big smile
Anyway, I'm quite a glad man, now, and guess, rather well oriented about your Psychedelic preferences.

Glad to see you here in this thread, as well, Enigmatic, not to mention Katharsis - even I'm maybe even more fond of the cover of Niemen Aerolit. 
It might be so that there are not so many Psychedelic aficionados on PA, and if that's the case, it's even more good to see you here.

I forgot about the "Zombies- "Odessey and Oracle", definitely on my Top 10 of favorite psychedelic albums. Couple additional obscurities from that period, maybe not on the same level as the albums already mentioned on page 1 of this thread, but worth trying:
Clear Light - S/T (1967)
The Fallen Angels - It's a Long Way Down (1968)
The Smoke - S/T  (1968, baroque pop band from Los Angeles, similar in sound to Strawberry Alarm Clock from their debut album "Incense and Peppermints". Keep in mind. their is another band with the same name from London that released one album titled "It's Smoke Time" in 1967)

Now, I just heard the self-titled album (1973) with Electric Sandwich (D), and the first song on it, China, hearing it pretty loud, thaat was a psychedelic experience.

I don't know how many we end to be joining this thread, but if not so many, then, we'll be however a close circle of Psychedelic friends. Smile

That would've been my second A-Z choice for the letter "I" after Iron Butterfly. Smile

Don't listen to much psych anymore and without repeating what others have posted, I have only one masterpiece to add. 

Gong - You

It's one of those albums I can play over and over and over....should have gone on my list.

btw...this is an interesting list that has well known as well as some obscure things.


Hi,

I wish there was a good/reasonable biography of Kevin, but according to his daughter on the twit thing, I'm not sure he was about drugs as much as drink. And even shows us once in an album ... throwing up, right?
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

So I guess I've got my own definition too. Btw: I'm not really interested whether the artists themselves (or Moshkito) consider they're albums as psych or not. I trust my own hearing. And I'm sticking to the 1960's stuff. No order:

Pink Floyd - A Saucerful Of Secrets
Love - Forever Changes
The United States of America - S/T
C.A. Quintet - Trip Thru Hell
Incredible String Band - The Hangman's Beautiful Daughter
Silver Apples - St
East of Eden - Mercator Projected
Strawberry Alarm Clock - Wake Up..It's Tomorrow

Morgen -  Morgen

Kaleidoscope - Tangerine Dream

Moody Blues - On The Threshold Of A Dream

The Music Emporium - St

White Noise - An Electric Storm

The Can - Monster Movie

The Rolling Stones - Their Satanic Majesties Request

Right! Let the music speak for itself!

Well, personally, I find it okay to mention some Jazz Fusion albums here if it's important for you, Easy Money, 
but otherwise, this thread is supposed to be about Psych (Rock), and I know that for instance dr wu23 
is very strickt about this "sacred area". Smile

An old favorite obscure one.....very atmospheric.
J K & Co- Suddenly One Summer '68/'69
Worth listening to the whole lp.
