That is my favorite Stones album. It's a real shame that they never went back to that sound. It was incredible. And props for talking about Ultimate Spinach. No one talks about them.
Millennium is a particularly fun one for its history. Lore has it that Brian Wilson was beginning Pet Sounds and wandered down the hall to hear what this wunderkind named Curt Boettcher was creating with other members of the Wrecking Crew (the Capitol studio musicians who played on everything). Wilson was floored. It heavily influenced his approach to Pet Sounds. So it's fun to hear how the Millennium "broke up" and Boettcher went on to form Sagittarius who also made a baroque psych masterpiece called "Present Tense." TL: DR - Present Tense is a great nugget of late 60's California psych. Voila.
Hi Dillon! (I hope that’s spelled right) Just wanted to say thanks for introducing me to all of this new music. As a young teenager, I never grew up with rock from the 60/70s (and neither did my parents), so I have to look elsewhere for music recommendations. Just wanted to let you know that channel has been a great source for exploring different types of rock that I would have never known about :)
Thanks man! I was in the same boat at your age. I am 35 now, so I grew up in the 90s. My parents weren’t music people so it was hard to know where to look! Glad to help!
Great stuff! Definitely agree that Anthem of the Sun is the Grateful Dead’s most psychedelic album. Your recommendation of Pink Floyd’s debut, Piper at the Gates of Dawn can’t be underscored enough. Astronomy Domine and Interstellar Overdrive are pure psychedelia. Syd Barrett was a force of nature.
Kin ping meh self titled from ‘71 is an amazing record from Germany, super cool sounds. Love the influence psych has made on modern bands as well. Congratulations by mgmt is one of the greatest body’s of work and is a good example of a modern psych record with a classic sound. Love the list you shared
The best psych book imo is the highly renowned "PSYCHEDELIA--101 ICONIC UNDERGROUND ROCK ALBUMS 1966-1970" by Richard Morton Jack. Best cover, best inner artwork, best graphics, the best package if you want a definitive psych record guide; also promoted heavily by Matt Sands & The Psych Professor. Do not sleep on that book.....find it immediately!!! I found my copy at a Barnes and Noble for sale under $10!
Maybe you wouldn't count it as authentic but highly recommend the XTC side project where they produced two records in the guise of a psych band The Dukes of Stratosphear. Great band, great records
You guys need to check out “The Baroques” by The Baroques. It’s not on streaming, but can be found on TH-cam. It was released the same day as Sgt Pepper, but the band never got out of Wisconsin.
I wasn’t sure if I liked Psyc music when I decided to watch this video, but then I realized I already have several of the records you highlighted. Great video.
Thanks Dillon. I always learn so much from your video's. Being an old man, you always turn me on to different music to dig into. Thanks man. Always collecting. Peace and love......
Hey man. This may sound generic, but when I was in high school and began smoking grass, I started with The Beatles Rubber Soul, Revolver, and then, of course, the rest of the Fab 4's lps. The Doors self titled lp was also on heavy rotation, as well as Jimi Hendrix studio albums. When I got to college, I discovered Syd Barrett Pink Floyd, as I delved into hallucinogenic substances. Next, the bus came by and I got on, that's when it all began with The Grateful Dead, traveled the country, missed many classes and attending many shows from 1989-1995 (I graduated in 1993 somehow). The rest is ancient history, now I'm into underground psych, prog, hard rock, and obscure private press stuff, like yourself. I learned a lot from watching the the early TH-cam videos on collecting such lps, yourself included later on. I just recently obtained Acid Archives and can't put it down. Thanks for keeping the ball rolling. Peace ✌ ☮ 🕊
Sweet Smoke ...Just a Poke ...very very cool....very crazy middle in track Silly Sally....@dillon its a good work for your Wilson....😊😊😊and look at grobschitt...solar music live....german psych krautrock.....
As usual, there's always some great things I've never heard of here. I've bought a LOT of records because of your videos. What makes me laugh is that I came across an original press of "Fever Tree" at my local store and bought it on chance. And loved it. Bought their live album, too. I think that means you taught me well. Thanks!
That's a great list of albums. But where was Odessey and Oracle? A must-have in my opinion and one of the best psych records. Anyway, keep them coming!
@goatuscrow4135 Mama mama here comes dr dark horse clippin clappin n his old hooves making sparks....man, I picked up a copy on bizzare/straight label this weekend for 50$ it's cover looks like it's from 71, ahhh but the vinal is clean....
@@crazyprayingmantis5596 Was that on eBay? I was bidding on a pretty nice copy of that description about a year ago. I bought the CD in the mid ‘90s after buying Safe as Milk. I was all in right away.
Thank you Dillon Most records of the bands you showed us are unknown to this granddad and I'm pleased you introduced them to us. I'm glad I watched your TH-cam video. Greetings from Holland😀👋
Good morning Dillon great video, I do believe Sgt Peppers was a turning point in popular music. People on the dance floor looked at each other and said we can't dance to this.
I watched your video 4-5 years ago and I saw the FevervTree album. I found it and I now own 3 of their albums. I agree that one you showed is the best. I have been able to buy many of the albums you talked in the that older video. Thanks!
Hey Dillion lovvvvvvve your vids me and my dad watch them all the time i like fugazi dead Kennidies nirvana prince Mimi Hendrix the doors and I’m really into records collecting cause of u do u have any recommendations and can u help me with content creation because I want to be like you thanks ps I’m 11 years old 😊
Great introduction video bud! I do remember that first video you did and it was a huge wealth of info at the time for me. I got into Psych because of my parents. My dad was a Vietnam vet and he listened to a lot of Psych . It started with the British Invasion stuff but I remember going through his vinyl as a kid and the covers of some of the albums catching my eye. That's how it started for me. My mom was and is a huge Moody Blues fan and it was Days Of Future Past she played it to death when I was growing up. That being said you've turned me on to so many new Psych bands I didn't know about....And you've sent me on this quest for an og Easter Everywhere. Great stuff as always. Tree.
I’m kind of surprised I didn’t see “The crazy world of Author Brown” or “surrealistic pillow” in the starter stuff! Some of my favorites from the genre. Great video!
Lots of great new bands in the vein of psych as well. Some 60s revival alternative style but some very heavy psych, world music, folk and more. Pish by the Brian Jonestown Massacre is one of the best psych songs ever and it came out less than 10 years ago. If i were to make a top 10 of my favorite psych songs, half would be BJM songs. Other new “pysch” bands to look into are the Black Angels, Ty Segall, Thee Oh Sees, Allah-lahs, Goat, Soundcarriers. All solid bands making new music that you can buy for $20-$30.
Hey Dillon. Love the channel. I just wanna recommend The Pretty Things SF Sorrow to folks. And it comes in 2 sleeve designs! What’s not to love for collectors, right?
Anthem of the Sun is definitely the Dead at their most psychedelic. I remember getting it really young because I loved Workingman's Dead and American Beauty, then I get hit with all this zany tape editing. I sold it at a family yard sale soon after like a dumbass. But I love it now (and have another copy). In The Land Of Pink And Grey is a true "Canterbury Scene" classic. That fuzzed out keyboard sound is great. Hard not to be in a good mood when Golf Girl is on. 13th Floor Elevators in the shrink? Good Lord. It was probably too weird for whoever bought it in 1966! Isn't the mono master tape for that missing? Makes pristine copies like that all the important. Speaking of tapes, that story about the one you are reissuing (or really issuing for the first time) is amazing.
awesome video ❤ I love your lists-Because I always jot down a few to hunt for! Here are the two records I heard (while working at a record store) that made me want MORE psych-rock : “HOOKED” The Hook (Bobby Arlin-Guitar) The Electric Flag- A Long Time Comin’ (Michael Bloomfield guitar… Buddy Miles on drums) … I did bring those two records home from the record store that day, I got “paid in vinyl“ -I was able to build my collection, and expand my music-listening off of my free labor😂
I'm glad you included Begin by The Millennium because it's amazing. There's tons of great psych but my all-time favorite is Introspection by The End and I only first listened to it in the last six months. I'm wondering if something will top it. The search continues. peace.
Great video man! Proper intro to psych for the new heads out there. Feel like I missed the train not using my channel to contribute more to the VC. Think that's about to change in 2025.
Dillon great video. I’m a huge Psych fan too and I wonder why you didn’t mention Love’s Forever Changes. That’s a classic! Also honorable mention should go to Strawberry Alarm Clock’s Wake Up It’s Tomorrow.
Very good. I really enjoyed watching this. You gave lots of great suggestions. But, come on now, no mention of Jefferson Airplane? Moody Blues? Tonto’s Expanding Headband?
Some other recommended psych albums to check out -: The Churchills (Israel) - in the top tier of psych albums from anywhere Cold Sun (USA) - Texan peyote infused psych at its best and has just been reissued again HP Lovecraft - II (USA) - excellent psych album that was reputedly recorded on acid Morgen (USA) - my favourite heavy psych album and has some wild fuzz guitar on it Kaleidoscope (Mexico) - this is a very rare record as an original but has been reissued…..very good fuzz/wah psych
Hi Dylan,, Have you heard the 2nd Ultimate Spinach album "Behold & See" ? IMO, it's a classic, just as good as the debut. Also, I've forgotten if you've ever mentioned The Black Angels from Austin. Totally in your wheelhouse! Their first album, Passover was released in 2006. I'd recommend their first two albums both currently in print on Light in the Attic. Joe in Houston
Fantastic video. A great resource. Should probably follow this up with tips for improving resumes and applying for second jobs so I can get all these😂 Love this stuff. Keep it coming.
😢Hey Dylan,Love your podcasts,always interesting,we have similiar tastes in music,also you have 1 of my albums from a mutual friend over here in Australia,keep the good work up mate,Mario.
It's worth mentioning that despite Dillon's implication that an original pressing or first release is better as a matter of fact. That is absolutely not the case. Many re-press issues are superior. It would be inaccurate to favor one over the other in general terms.
Is there any hope in sight for those of us who are financially challenged? Also...how do you determine how much to pay for a large collection (100+ albums)?
If you like your psych to be less heavy and more melodic but very cheap I'd recommend the Colours lp on Dot and The National Gallery on Philips. There's many more of this ilk but value for money they're hard to beat.
@@noblerecords Awesome man such a good exclusive. A clean one goes for like 5k now. I bought your old bubble puppy record off the wall in your shop. Nice to see your upgraded copy haha.
Nice video thanks. 👍 Kaleidoscope eyes is a decent book I had in University days when researching psych music. Endless trip looks like it's worth tracking down. Blue Cheer not being psychedelic is an interesting take. Vincebus pretty much invented the Heavy Psych genre. I find I'm more discerning and can't/don't like everything. Some of the albums in this video I love, like Hendrix, Neil Merryweather, Plastic Cloud, Blue Cheer, Pink Floyd, July, and some not so much. Lean more to the heavier psych side. Not really introductory psych stuff, but was wondering if you listen to records like Fifty Foot Hose and Spoils of War? Not sure I've seen you mention them before. Cheers
I enjoyed/learned from this. The definition of a "psych" record is actually quite elusive. For me, the greatest psych record is easily Trout Mask Replica. But that says as much about me as it does about psychedelia.
Excellent run down Dillon back in the day early y 70’s they used to call it Acid Rock never liked that name but don’t like jam band either I call it muddy country blues jazz improvisation music or head grass
Lots of current bands have incorporated psych into their music. Try these albums, Farflung A Wound in Eternity Hawkwind type space rock with psych. King Buffalo Acheron prog rock and heavy psych. Elder The Gold and Silver Sessions, prog rock with psych and krautrock.
"Aphrodites Child" was one example of Greek psych, which was in the vid. For some examples from the top of my head, check out: George Romanos "Two Small Blue Horses". Four Levels of Existence "Four Levels of Existence". Socrates Drank the Conium "Socrates Drank the Conium". Pete and Royce "Suffering of Tomorrow".
Take 444 is a very good TH-cam channel I’d recommend that people here follow if they are interested in psychedelia. British guy, he has a huge specialist collection of psych records he is currently working his way through A-Z and showing in a video series.
Some good choices. I agree that "July" is one of the best, but to mention Space Rock & not mention "Hawkwind" is sacralidge. They are the Fathers of Space Rock. Also to say "Blue Cheer" is not really "Psych" couldn't be farther from the truth. When that album came out in 67, it melted minds. I was there. As a 68 year old, I could go on & on , but I digress.
I think it is not regarded as such in retrospect these days. They call it "proto-metal" now, but obviously no one in 1968 was saying, "Can't wait for the metal coming next!" But I hear you. Wasn't "Blue Cheer" literally a type of acid? And I love me some Hawkwind.
'65-75 the true heyday of rock as art form. Still only half way through the vid, so maybe shouldn't say this, but have you heard the first 2 Traffic albums?
You can buy our exclusive releases here:

That is my favorite Stones album. It's a real shame that they never went back to that sound. It was incredible. And props for talking about Ultimate Spinach. No one talks about them.
I remember I had an art teacher who was very into psych, and he was like, "Satanic Majesties is the only Stones album I like."
The July record is by far in the top 5 psych records of the 60s! Thanks so much for the recommendation!
Millennium is a particularly fun one for its history. Lore has it that Brian Wilson was beginning Pet Sounds and wandered down the hall to hear what this wunderkind named Curt Boettcher was creating with other members of the Wrecking Crew (the Capitol studio musicians who played on everything).

Really love this video, an album I recently discovered is The World of Oz which just blew me away.

Anthem of the Sun is definitely the Dead at their most psychedelic.

The Electric Flag- A Long Time Comin’ (Michael Bloomfield guitar… Buddy Miles on drums)

Totally in your wheelhouse! Their first album, Passover was released in 2006. I'd recommend their first two albums both currently in print on Light in the Attic. Joe in Houston
Sorry "Dillon". Have another question, who do you use for Insuring your music collection? Thanks again! Joe in Houston
Fantastic video. A great resource. Should probably follow this up with tips for improving resumes and applying for second jobs so I can get all these😂
Love this stuff. Keep it coming.
😢Hey Dylan,Love your podcasts,always interesting,we have similiar tastes in music,also you have 1 of my albums from a mutual friend over here in Australia,keep the good work up mate,Mario.
Nice video! One album that I'd add is the Acid Casualties' 1982 release "Panic Station".
It's worth mentioning that despite Dillon's implication that an original pressing or first release is better as a matter of fact.
That is absolutely not the case. Many re-press issues are superior.
It would be inaccurate to favor one over the other in general terms.
I am so glad I got all my Psych stuff when I did because prices have gone way up..
Is there any hope in sight for those of us who are financially challenged? Also...how do you determine how much to pay for a large collection (100+ albums)?
If you’re financially challenged, stream- or collect CDs instead of vinyl.
Unfortunately, it's not the same.
If you like your psych to be less heavy and more melodic but very cheap I'd recommend the Colours lp on Dot and The National Gallery on Philips. There's many more of this ilk but value for money they're hard to beat.

Second best psych record imho is the third VU record. After that, I can't say ....
Make a video with intro to prog!! That would be awesome
How about one about a related genre from the late 60s- sunshine pop?
I love hendrix pink floyd grateful dead beatles and many other artists

You need to do a reissue of Power Plant. Got the 2008 reissue and people want 250 and up for it.
Hi! Is psych rock a phenomenon completely relegated to decades past? Do you recommend any contemporary bands in this genre?
Lots of current bands have incorporated psych into their music. Try these albums,
Farflung A Wound in Eternity Hawkwind type space rock with psych.
King Buffalo Acheron prog rock and heavy psych.
Elder The Gold and Silver Sessions, prog rock with psych and krautrock.
Hey Dillion. U were right about that endless trip book. They’re asking $999 on one site, another one wants $2134.🤡 um…that’s insane
That’s just crazy numbers. Hopefully they print them again!
Power Plant a great record
Any suggestions from New Zealand Psych bands ?
New Zealand have any real psych albums - there is a really good compilation called No.7 Wire which is all NZ psych
Definitely ticket
Dillon is there any pych from Greece?
"Aphrodites Child" was one example of Greek psych, which was in the vid.
For some examples from the top of my head, check out:
George Romanos "Two Small Blue Horses".
Four Levels of Existence "Four Levels of Existence".
Socrates Drank the Conium "Socrates Drank the Conium".
Pete and Royce "Suffering of Tomorrow".
I forgot to add this band from Greece: "Purple Overdose".
Ευχαριστώ, φίλε μου
It means thank you my friend
@@lauher21 You're welcome.
Take 444 is a very good TH-cam channel I’d recommend that people here follow if they are interested in psychedelia. British guy, he has a huge specialist collection of psych records he is currently working his way through A-Z and showing in a video series.
The Endless trip is now over 2K on Amazon
That’s so insane.
I just got that blue cher kick s ass
The travel agency
I haven't touched psych rock lol. BUT, my favorite group is The Monophonics. Psych Soul, does that count lol.
Some good choices. I agree that "July" is one of the best, but to mention Space Rock & not mention "Hawkwind" is sacralidge. They are the Fathers of Space Rock. Also to say "Blue Cheer" is not really "Psych" couldn't be farther from the truth. When that album came out in 67, it melted minds. I was there. As a 68 year old, I could go on & on , but I digress.
I think it is not regarded as such in retrospect these days. They call it "proto-metal" now, but obviously no one in 1968 was saying, "Can't wait for the metal coming next!" But I hear you. Wasn't "Blue Cheer" literally a type of acid?
And I love me some Hawkwind.
'65-75 the true heyday of rock as art form. Still only half way through the vid, so maybe shouldn't say this, but have you heard the first 2 Traffic albums?
Mecki mark men from Sweden.
Go psych………!!
Free up, by the surprise package? Think thats right
