after posting my american list here is my favourite 50 uk psych albums, one album by each band. admittedly i dont have a couple of these but have heard tracks from them and want them! ...now ill wait for the "thats not psychedelic" arguments to start...i found this list harder coz most of the good english stuff comes on singles not albums...but if youve got both rubble boxed sets then youve got that stuff covered... My Top 50 BRITISH PSYCHEDELIC ALBUMS: andwellas dream - love and poetry apple - an apple a day art - supernatural fairy tales arzachel - arzachel beatles - magical mystery tour bee gees - bee gees 1st billy nicholls - would you beleive blossom toes - we are ever so clean caravan - caravan crazy world of arthur brown - crazy world of arthur brown cream - disreali gears deep purple - shades of deep purple donovan - sunshine superman eric burdon and the new animals - winds of change fairport convention - fairport convention family - music in a dolls house five day week straw people - the five day week straw people forever amber - the love cycle yardbirds - little games hawkwind - hawkwind [size=2]tyrannosourus rex - prophets, seers and sages [size=2] [size=2]increadible string band - 5000 spirits or the layers of the onion [size=2]jimi hendrix experience - are you experienced [size=2]july - july [size=2]kaleidoscope - tangerine dream kinks - something else by the kinks [size=2]moody blues - in search of the lost chord [size=2]nirvana - story of simon simopath [size=2]pink floyd - piper at the gates of dawn [size=2]pretty things - sf sorrow [size=2]procol harum - shine on brightly [size=2]pussy - pussy plays [size=2]rainbow ffolly - sallies fforth [size=2]rolling stones - satanic majesties request [size=2]sam gopal - escalator [size=2]skip bifferty - skip bifferty [size=2]small faces - ogdens nut gone flake [size=2]soft machine - volume 1 [size=2]spencer davis group - with their new face on [size=2]status quo - picturesque matchstickable messages from the status quo [size=2]the end - introspection [size=2]the move - the move [size=2]the nice - thoughts of emerlist davjack [size=2]the who - tommy [size=2]tommorow - tommorow[/size] [size=2][size=2]traffic - mr fantasy[/size][/size] [size=2][size=2][size=2]van der graaf generator - aerosol grey machine [size=2]yes - yes [size=2]zombies - odessey and oracle [/size][/size][/size][/size] [/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size][/size]
yet another great list but where is the beatles yellow submarine songtrack...that is a great compilation with pretty much my more favorite beatles songs...but again this isnt my list, but just putting my opinion, it is still a good list though
Seems like a very solid list to me. How's that album? I only have In the Land of Grey and Pink, and I like it. If you've heard their later work, how does their earlier work compare? Ugh, this is the only Yardbirds album I've never been able to find. I don't know how it can be this rare... [/size]
that first caravan is more psychedelic than In the land of... I much prefer it myself in fact, great album, I reckon you'd enjoy it Lucifer Sam
well land of grey and pink is very psychedelic but in a different way. its more musically advanced i guess than the hippy pop of caravan's first album. their first album is more 60s i guess. the bee gees first album is good. now i know the bee gees are very uncool. but if you like the moody blues then you wqould like the 60s bee gees too. im actually thinking that instead of the idle race album on the list i would rather exchange it for tyrannousourus rex - prophets seers and sages, the angels of the ages. coz i love marc bolan and cant beleive i left him out!
