[1969] The Pisces - Mary

listen to the song:


the first time I played their album, I had no look on the release date and thought the Pisces were an old band from the late 60's. but then I felt, that something sounds like neo-psychedelia, but no, the Pisces album really got recorded in 1969. "Mary" reminds on the psychedelic moments of "Marijuana Unknowns Vol. 1" compilation.

[1969] Country Weather - Fly To New York

listen to the song:


A classic Psychedelic Rock track that can be found on some compilations. I tought wow, let's see, what the band did on their albums... but well, ... it was a bit disapointing, ... if I remember right, the albums where loaded with blues rock, not bad stuff, but also not, what I expected. anyway, enjoy this track!

[1969] John & Philipa Cooper - Magical Fingers of Minerva

listen to the song:


John and Philipa Cooper came from Johannesburg in South Africa. But they were not alone, ... Julian Laxton (lead guitar), Art de Villiers (acoustic guitar), Bob Hill (bass), Werner Krupski (keyboards), Francesco (fiddle), Ivor Back (drums), Rory Blackwell (tambourine) helped them out, so they had a nice band together. to categorize their music, I would propose to call it droney acid folk. Someone is playing sitar and robust bass lines are holding the trancy vocals and the psychedelic organ.

[1969] Elephant's Memory - Old Man Willow

listen to the song:


An elephant's memory is legendarily large, and so was the size and scope of the New York band that went by the same name. Unlike some other horn-rock ensembles of the late-'60s that took advantage of the freedom to expand rock's size and sound, however, Elephants Memory weren't merely a rock band with jazz overtones. There was plenty of pile-driving rock'n'roll, and a good deal of jazz of both the free and big band varieties. But there was also soul, spaced-out psychedelia... (~Richie Unterberger)

[1969] Jan & Lorraine - Gypsy People

listen to the song:


Jan & Lorraine are a British duo (Jan Hendin and Lorraine Lefevrereleased), that released this song on their 1969 album "Gypsy People". Sitar and a mix of british acid folk and american psychedelic folk with those sweet female voices. It's great and I would say, enjoy it, go out in nature and let it play again in your mind and connect with the universe, ... greetings, amadeus :)

[1969] It's A Beautiful Day - Love For You (Bulgaria)

listen to the song:


released 1969 on the selftitled album "It's A Beautiful Day". But the single "Bulgaria / Aquarian Dream" was rleased 1968. The band was founded in San Francisco 2 years before, 1967. Sweet San Francisco Psychedelic Rock, the singing á la Jefferson Airplane... the violin takes a very important part in this song I belive... Enjoy! greetings, amadeus :)

and thanks for some great info's by "Anonymous" ;) about this song:
The single "Bulgaria" was mis-titled by their manager Matthew Katz. The song (which also appeared on the Pipe Dream comp) is called "Love For You" (which is obvious when you listen to it!). The flipside, although good, is nothing to do with the IABD band at all, and was more Matthew Katz "magaing".

Cosmic Michael is just great. Groovy voice, psychedelic dance feeling... soft male voice, rythmful drum and soft guitar in background and finaly some hammond organ. Enjoy! greetings, amadeus

[1969] Rochelle Rosenthal & The Kickball Queen - Lottery

listen to the song:


The B-side of this single is "You Don't know" and is credited to Darryl Bowden and the Kickball Queen. The band was from Detroit Michigan. This one is probably released about 69/70. Psycho speaking at the beginning, heavy psychedelic with powerful female voice. Enjoy! greetings, amadeus :)

[1969] Tomorrow Come Someday - Someone Like You

listen to the song:


wow, thanks to bilbo1742 for this great entry into one of his wunderful lists on rym. Soft female voice, sounds a bit like Vashti Bunyan. Than you can enjoy the feeling you sometimes have by listening to "Going Up The Country", the kind of singing and playing the flute, and I would rate it with 5/5 stars. The album, where this song is taken from was released 1969 and totally unknown for me and alot of you I think... tell me, what ya think about it, would enjoy some feedback ;):) greetings, amadeus


The self titled LP "Tomorrow Come Someday "

[1969] Pentangle - Light Flight

listen to the song:


great acid-psychedelic folk-rock from 1969. great female voice. enjoy !

here the lyrics of the song:
Let's get away, you say, find a better place,
Miles and miles away from the city's race,
Look around for someone lying in the sunshine
Marking time, hear the sighs, close your eyes...

Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...

Stepping from cloud to cloud passing years of light
Visit the frosty stars in the backward flight
Star becomes a vision, never mind the meaning,
Hidden there, moving fast, it won't last...

Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...

Time passes all too soon, how it rushes by,
Now a thousand moons are about to die
No time to reflect on what the time was spent on,
Nothing left, far away, dreamers fade

Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...
Strange visions pass me by, winging sweetly close inside [*]
O-ver the wa-ter, ah....

Swirling, the waters rise up above my head.
Gone are the curling mists how they all have fled.
Look, the door is open, step into the space
Provided there

Da do da, da, do da...
Ba - da - pa do da da - ba - pa do da da...
