What is your favorite Psychedelic Song?

[rolandson]

Almost anything from this album is pretty psychedelic and good.

Oh man...! I had so forgotten.
Thank you for reminding me.

Superbird
Look, up yonder in the sky,
now what is that I pray?
It's a bird it's a plane
it's a man insane
it's my President LBJ

He's flying high way up in the sky
just like Superman,
But I have got a little piece of kryptonite,
Yes, I'll bring him back to land.

Said come out Lyndon
with your hands held high,
Drop your guns
baby, and reach for the sky.
I've got you surrounded
and you ain't got a chance,
Gonna send you back to Texas
make you work on your ranch,
Yeah, yeah, oh yeah.

He can call Super Woman
and his Super Dogs,
But it sure won't do him no good,
Yeah, I found out why
from a Russian spy
That he ain't nothing but a comic book.
We'll pull him off the stands
and clean up the land,
Yes, we'll have us a brand new day.
What is more I got
the Fantastic Four
And Doctor Strange to help him on his way.

Said come out Lyndon
with your hands held high,
Drop your guns,
baby, and reach for the sky.
We got you surrounded
and you ain't got a chance,
Gonna send you back to Texas
make you work on your ranch,
Yeah yeah, oh yeah.
Yeah, gonna make him eat flowers.
Yeah, make him drop some acid...

Wow! Some good (or bad) memories??? posted here. I'm old enough to remember them all. I enjoyed this band when I was under the influence of vitamin A.

What an absolutely amazing band they were

I love all these songs, but "White Rabbit" is a real favorite. Here's a short clip from 2014 of Jefferson Starship playing it (just the end). This was at the end of a day-long 80's concert on my local beach, and by 9:30 PM when they went on, they played to only about 40 of us, that were left. Paul Kantner is on the left, puffing away, and he seemed to be handed a different Ric for each song. Kathy Richardson is singing, and Paul Freiberg, also from Quicksilver Messenger Service, is on guitar with the white hair. I'm also posting a longer clip of "Fresh Air". Even though there was only about 40 of us on the sand listening, they played a great set, and I wish I had an entire video of it. This was shortly after I got my first smart phone, so the quality is bad.

Most early Floyd is where it's at. My favorite varies, but right this second I'm gonna go with Let There Be More Light.

 

[Neil.C]

A couple of favourites of mine.

The original Nirvana.




Dantalion's Chariot which featured Zoot Money and Andy Summers.

This was my go to Psychedelic record in the early 70’s

 

[Scott Baxendale]

Donovan was great. This is from Athens Business Rocks. The band are all the guys working in my shop at the time. This was for a charity concert.

 

[Strums]

Great album! Great version of Who Do You Love. Not a grinding monotony like other versions.

[WhiteWabbit]

Love seeing all the love for Quicksilver. I think of this as a quintessential psych song with lots of freaked out Cipollina guitar until just when you think it’s gonna be a complete instrumental, the lyrics begin at 7:20!! It’s a journey of a song.

 

[Bob Spumoni]

"Somewhere Over the Rainbow"

Reminds me of Art Linkletter's daughter.

 

[PonyB]

Not a favourite, but always good fun.

 

[Scott Baxendale]

Great album! Great version of Who Do You Love. Not a grinding monotony like other versions.

Yeah! The best version for me. Gold & Silver which was on their first record gets me too.

So much great music from that time, but when I was tripping I really loved chilling out and listening to the *****es Brew album(all 4 sides) by Miles Davis it still one of my favourite listening experiences to this day. Just to add to that I'm surprised no one has mentioned the master and his brilliant Electric Ladyland recording, the moon turns the tides, voodoo child!

Sally Go 'Round The Roses ~ Grace Slick & The Great Society

A masterpiece.
