[1967] Phluph - Another Day

listen to the song:


This song sounds like Jefferson Airplane or Peanut Butter Conspiracy mixed with some underground psychedelia and very early Pink Floyd. They released an self-titeld album in 1968 (Verve 5054). Saidly I don't have it, but I added it on my wishlist and may post it when I found it :). "Another Day" is the A-side of the single; Verve VK10564 and got released in 1967. Enjoy! greetings, amadeus :)

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.

[1967] Los Mac's - Dear Friend Bob

listen to the song:


Los Mac's is one of the very rare psychedelic groups from the 60's in Chile. Some weeks ago I read an interview with the group where the band leader, I think, talkes about all that crappy studio equipment, they had for their first 2 albums, that mostly contained cover version. For their third album "Kaleidoscope Men" they had better conditions. At that time they started to record their own songs, wich sounds much better and had a really fine kind of psychedelic in it (the same for the last album). This Song is taken from Los Mac's "Kaleidoscope Men" (released 1967). It sounds a bit like those acid songs from the Beatles, as I compiled them on "Colored Psychedelic Smoke & LSD Glasses", with many psychedelic dubbing effects. Enjoy! greetings, amadeus :)

listen to the song:


Sweet female voice, great music! Sounds a bit like Mamas & Papas, with some groovy guitar playing by John Merill. They only released 1 album called "The Ashes" in 1966.



"This Los Angeles band's original drummer was, of course, Spencer Dryden, before he joined Jefferson Airplane. The remaining members, aside from Taylor, later teamed up with Bill Wolff, Lance Feat and Sandi Robinson to become The Peanut Butter Conspiracy." ~ Fuzz, Acid & Flowers by Vernon Joynson

[1994] Klaus der Geiger & Die Koelner Strassenmusiker - Flughafen Wahn

listen to the song:


well, Klaus der Geiger is just great! I saw him live once at the Burg Herzberg Festival. "Flughafen Wahn" is a fantastic piece of Acid Folk! just listen to it. Enjoy!



Lyrics:
Die Wader Heide, ein Stück Natur, in ihrer Art einmalig nur
mit Wassertümpeln und Baumgiganten, fast schon ausgestorbenen Tieren und Pflanzen
Ein Lebenselexier, für Mensch und für Tier
und in ihrer Mitte ein Krebsgeschwühr

Der Flughafen Wahn, mit einem gigantischen Ausbauplan

Weils keiner weiß, machts auch keinen heiß
nämlich, das der Flughafen immerzu am wachsen ist
und, das er nicht nur die Wader Heide frisst, sonder auch DICH und MICH, ha!
Und wir merken es nicht

Pressekonferenz an der Landebahn
ein Luxusliner Bus kommt da an
mit Journalisten vollgepackt
da stehen sie und warten, was der Herr Oberförster sagt
der Herr Oberförster sagt: "Naja, blabla,
Flugsicherheit, alles klar, blabla, wunderbar."
Er will ja nur seinen Job nicht verlieren,
dann lieber weg mit Bäumen und Tieren
die Journalisten stehen rum und schreiben und frieren
und warten auf das Essen, denn das wir ihnen die Flughafengesellschaft bestimmt im Anschluss danach servieren, ha!
Doch da stehn wir und lassen nicht zu, das Pflanzen und Tiere an diesem Flughafen Wahn krepiern!

Und siehe da, da entpuppen sich zwei graue Herrn, ha
als zuständig für Flughafenausbau und Flughafenlärm
und diese Herrn grinsen ins Fernsehn entsinnt
und sprechen mit Hohn, "wir vertreten hier die Meinung von Jährlich Dreimillionen"
nämlich all den jenigen, die nach Mallorca chatten
all denen, die ohne Erdbeeren im Winter womöglich verfetten, ha
"jetzt geht ihr Protestler mal hübsch wieder nach haus,
wir bauen den Flughafen in jedem Fall aus.
Wir werden gewinnen, ihr werdet verlieren,
denn euch hilft niemand und uns hilft die Schmiere
Wir werden gewinnen, ihr werdet verlieren,
denn euch hilft niemand und uns hilft die Schmiere"

Wer wird gewinnen, ganz zuletzt,
wenn das Ozonloch wächst und wächst
wenn nur noch Werbung dich regiert
und du den Appetit verlierst,
auf wahre Lebensqualität,
dann ist es irgendwann mal zuspät,
für uns Menschen hier auf Erden,
für DICH und MICH
denn die Natur, die Natur,
die braucht uns Menschen nicht

Was muss denn noch passiern,
dass wir Das kapiern

Perry Leopold - 1973 - Christian Lucifer (Psychedelic Folk)

.



This LP was originally recorded in 1973, and it was a tragedy that it never got released. It was a classic psychedelic-folk recording with the artist Perry Leopold at his very peak of creativity. Incredibly the originally tapes were reused after the studio was sold and then a few mix down tapes were scavenged to put this LP (and CD) together by Gear Fab Records.

Leopold's voice is confident and smooth as silk, which lends an airy dreamy ambiance to the compositions. The combination of richly textured instruments such as the flute, bassoon, and cello serves as the perfect compliment to Leopold's vocal style and gentle and warm guitar playing. You may be reminded of some other great groups of the past when you hear this album. CSN&Y comes to mind for their heavenly harmonies and beautiful memorable folk-rock tunes. Fans of The Byrds and Buffalo Springfield may find something to key in on while listening to this as well.



This is one of the finest disregarded recordings that I have ever heard. Thanks to Gear Fab to changing the course of history, and for all of their hard work in keeping the spirit of this music alive. And above all, thanks to the creator Perry Leopold for giving us a much needed blast from the past to credit him with the importance and credibility of his artistry.

Track Listing:
01. Sunday Afternoon in the Garden of Delights (8:51)
02. The Windwill (8:58)
03. The Starewell (4:17)
04. Serpentine Lane (4:30)
05. The Annunciation (5:10)
06. The Journey (6:47)
07. Vespers (5:33)

Musicians:
Charles Cohen - Mini Moog
John Gillaspie - Bassoon, Recorder, Clavinet
David Goldblatt - Cello
Stan Slotter - Flute
Sam Rudin - Percussion, Bongos
Mike McCarthy - Bass (Electric), String Bass
Perry Leopold - Guitar, Arranger, Vocals
Bill Zino - String Bass

[1968] The Next Exit - Break Away

listen to the song:


Jay Siegal of The Tokens produced the first and only LP they made. the band real name is "The Fabulous Four", but the labels and manager changed their name several times, here they changed it to "The Next Exit". On garagehangover.com and rockkansas.com you can read a bit about the whole story of this great band :). This song has groovy overdubbed singing. Psychedelic pop with a touch acid.

"In 1967 the group landed a great opportunity to travel New York to record "I'm the Only One" and "Break Away" as the Next Exit for Warner Bros, produced by the Tokens. "Break Away" was written by Stephen Friedland (aka Brute Force) and Paul Kahan, and is well-crafted psychedelic pop." ~ garagehangover.com





Here are comming some words from the guitarist of this band, about the song:

Bob Theen: This song was recorded in NY in 1967, produced by The Tokens. It was supposed to be the title song for a movie that was released that next year in 1968 called “Butterflies Are Free’ The movie did come out it ‘68 but for some reason unknown to us our recording was not chosen. The song "I'm The Only One" was in the movie but only one short verse was sung by one of the stars on an acoustic. Darn the luck!! The other side of this is "Breakaway".

Our version of the song was released in the spring of 1968 and got some air play here in K.C. MO. Don't know about anywhere else. But evidently it wasn't a smash hit.

I still have a letter from Hank and Jay asking us to return to NY for some more recordings but for some reason at the time the trip was too far. I still wonder to this day why we didn't go. I think it had something to do with our families, wives, babies and that sort of thing.

Enjoy! greetings, amadeus :)
