My Record Collection - 60s Psychedelic Obscurities

[TiedyemansVideos]

I think you deserve some kind of award for obscurity on this. Never heard of any of these bands. Is any of the music any good or is that the reason I've never heard of them?

[DIGITALSCREAMS]

Very very very nice....

Thanks for the video.

[faroutlindsey]

I have 3000+ albums 60s-early 70s and have non of the ones you have!{dog gone it!] Have wanted the "Giant Crab" for oh so long...I do have a nice collection especially considering most were found a flea markets,yard sales,and antique malls...mostly I gave 25 cents or a buck for and the most 15 dollars...thanks for sharing!!

[Bends95]

this was the video that got me fascinated with the vinyl community,it has inspired me to jump on the bandwagon!

[StuffThatBurns]

but wheres Iron butterfly, Vanilla Fudge and blue cheer?

[ratatouilletv]

I just love the psychedelic drawings on the sleeves.

[apemanstreetwalker]

no music? I feel let down

[Breendonkfilms]

Nice finds (have them all as well) ;)

[machina37]

wow ! hello from Chicago !

[blackmath8]

I feel really nostalgic when I hear your calm, tranquilizing voice and the crinkling of the plastic covers of the records. That's pretty much the main reason why I watch any of your videos. It's almost hypnotizing...

[JSG1951]

Interesting collection.Out of all those, I have heard of the Yellow Balloon and the Hassles.This is the first time I 've actually seen the Yellow Balloon's album.Thanks!!

[eyewarnedyou]

Ahhhh......but what about "The Ultimate Spinach" and their "Hip Death Goddess"?? Now THAT'S late 60s psychodelic music! KGA in Spokane played it over and over again in 1969 by a DJ named "Shane" who owned and drove a black Funeral Limosine to work every day....

[myrecordcollection]

Ultimate Spinach is shown in my "Psychedelic Classics" video. That's how highly I think of them: they're "classics" rather than "obscurities." After all, their first album made the Billboard Top 40 album charts.

[CJurasin]

@myrecordcollection I've got a collection of over 600 albums (and singles) from this era (I was growing up then) and like you, I kept the plastic cover on them and SOME still have the price tags on them of $2.69 from the Pay N Save Drug Stores I got them from!!! ;-)

[49kasey]

Nice collection of very obscure stuff. I used to have that Touch album. You know that The Fool were closely associated with Apple, don't you, and that they painted the mural on Apple headquarters and did a lot of fashion design. BTW, you'd have been great as a late night DJ back then.

[yourmomsfatass1]

whatta bunch of hating S.O.B.'s!! The same dudes screaming for white noise probably downloaded it on mp3 and never had to do any real diggin! many thanks for posting this mr english teacher with the audio book voice

[DefiniteMC]

Hey, nice collection. Not sure how much of it I'd really call psychedelic, though. In any case, you should stack those all back up and go hunt for an original LP of "White Noise -- An Electric Storm in Hell," and put it at the very top. Then, the next time you go to show off your collection, everyone who knows what's what will know you mean business.

[myrecordcollection]

I mean, kind of. We can always go more and more obscure. But to some degree that just becomes musical snobbery, whereby we're eager to tell our friends that our favorite band or favorite album is something "you've probably never heard of." My purpose here is pretty simple: most people probably think of The Doors or Jefferson Airplane when they think of "psychedelic" rock, so I just wanted to show some relative unknowns in that general area.

[marsscape]

@DefiniteMC I actually have a copy of "White Noise", and you're right. It was an ultimate psycodelic sound. I also have 2 of the LP's in this video. "Hour of the Wolf" by the Hassels, featuring none other than, William Joel, as he is listed on the jacket. I even have a copy of their other LP. Surprisingly, I also have a copy of "Smooth As Silk".

[TiedyemansVideos]

@DefiniteMC I have a copy of White Noise, it's rather psychedelic but not really that pleasant to listen to if you're on psychedelics.

[haloblender]

you are definitely a candidate for the tranquilizing voices to relax to. an alternative to watching f*#&ing bob ross! great records by the way. although i miss the united states of america.

[GameICY]

Very Nice collection !

[mtexter]

Hello, just wanted to send a message to let you know that I found Giant Crab at a local record store and picked it up because of this video. Thanks for sharing your collection,

[chupathingy99]

where's Bangor Flying Circus?

[myrecordcollection]

Hmm, I'm not sure I've ever actually seen a copy of that one. I know it was on Dunhill, and I suspect it even made the album charts, but I don't remember seeing a copy. I must admit that in my mind I get it a little confused with the two albums by The Smith, who also recorded for Dunhill.

[chupathingy99]

@myrecordcollection I've got it on CD. It's pretty good, especially their copy of Norwegian Wood. Also Madura's pretty good. Check your inbox, I sent you a PM.

[mkhand13]

@myrecordcollection

last time I saw Bangor Flying Circus was Spring of 69

when they headlined the GEM "High In The Hills Of La Habra"

with Blues Image as the opening band

[Rhiview]

You have a nice voice, sounds like something from a audio book or something XD

[myrecordcollection]

Well, I am a college English teacher. Audio books no, but I do a great deal of work with plain old text books.

[RedVynil]

I have nearly half of them. Some, however, as far as I'm concerned, are not psych at all. "Fusion" isn't psych. Touch is prog. The others I'm not sure about.

[myrecordcollection]

Well, admittedly, the term "psych" is a catch-all that we use to describe the bulk of the pop and rock from the roughly 1966-1970 period. And it's notoriously difficult to define what makes music "psychedelic," so there's always disagreement about what records qualify. Obviously a record like The Yellow Balloon is basically just sunshine pop, but the bulk of the stuff in this video is exactly what most people think of when they think of psychedelic pop/rock.

[RedVynil]

@myrecordcollection Yeah, Yellow Balloon is basically the Calif. version of bands like, Ohio Express or 1910 Fruitgum Co.. I THINK the only track of their's I have slated to go into my huge psych comp is, "Noollab Wolley", and even that is quite iffy.

I've seen records posted on e-bay and other places that are claimed to be psych, but just HAPPENED to be released at pretty much ANY point in the `60's!!

[myrecordcollection]

Yeah, in some cases "psych" is just a search term, keyword, or buzzword.

[RedVynil]

@myrecordcollection Well, what I'm generally looking for to add to my comp (it's gonna be about 120 CD's long, so far), is really good psych! The kind that makes you see things BEFORE you take the drugs!!!! I don't even care what era it came from! As long as it's good psych. Kula Shaker, Alice's Orb, Vibrasonic, Dukes Of Stratosfear; Walter Ghoul's Lavendar Brigade, Pillbugs, they're all GREAT psych, even though they're from the `80's & `90's!! Klaatu, even though they're from the mid `70's.

[RedVynil]

@myrecordcollection Bands like, Dreadful Great, Jefferson Hairpie & ESPECIALLY, Velvet Underwear and not psych!! Sure, J.A. & the Dead have a FEW early tracks that fit in, but, most do not!

There's a Hello People album I just bought that has more psych than, "Fusion".

[RedVynil]

@myrecordcollection To me, requirements of psych are: tape mainipulation, phase shifters set on stun, flangers, lots of panning, sound effects, backwards sounds, tabla, sitar, electric sitar, mellotrons, and a few other things. British psych is always the best. American psych basically consists of strange lyrics, minor keys and a fuzzy guitar.

Most often, garage (that's right, it was called, "Garage" NOT punk!! Punk didn't even exist until the late `70's.), is pawned off as psych on comps.

[RedVynil]

@myrecordcollection If I wanted to buy garage (not that I have anything against it at all), I'd go out looking for garage!!! I'm looking for psych and that's what I bloody well want!! I've got dozens of psych comps and I seriously doubt I've pulled no more than 3 or 4 songs from each of them as being psych!! As for "Rubble", I could've pare it all down to a 3 or 4 album set.I've seen out & out SURF records touted as psych!! Granted, a SCANT few fit in, but 99% of them don't.

[90carlw]

WTF I have hardly heard of any of thoses bands :O I guess I don't know as much about 60's music as I thought I did lol

[PM1970]

How amazingly cool! Take great care of them :)

[OttoDahlberg1]

The Yellow Balloon had Don Grady (Robbie on My Three Sons) on drums.

[OttoDahlberg1]

I can't believe you have Touch, The Holy Grail of obscurities. I have been searching for this album since 1975. Do you plan to upload any songs from the album? Is the album 1966? Thanks for the upload!!!

[moxie96]

All these bands and more can be heard on internet radio channel "Technicolor Web of Sound". Check it out today!

[Aethinus]

I'm getting an original 'The Jimi Hendrix Experience' - "Are you experienced?" album tommorow!

[belzoboy]

Nice!! ^^Which one is your favorite?

[myrecordcollection]

Maybe Hamilton Streetcar. That is one great record!

[WatchBlueSkies]

Hi, I alsol got the Ill Wind-Flashes.

it is a very nice record.

lalala and when the sun is up, I go to bed, i cannot wait until the day is dead :-)

[tremsfan]

You might be interested in these two songs..the first one is already on youtube, called Coming Home/To Mrs. Jones Garden (same song, slightly different version, posted as 'Going Home/To Mrs. Jones Garden)...also, i just re-bought a great tune from late '65 called 'Tompkins Square' by The Harbingers...i hope to post that soon, do a search for it in about two weeks,it is SUPER....

[wasapamati]

great videos! wish you still made more!

[1000Passwords]

Woo Hoo!

I have The Travel Agency LP. :)

[meltedmoonlight]

Yay!

"Down at Circe's Place" by Touch........superb!!

[akashaman]

killer collection : ! i have about half of these :

check out my pop psych music blog i run just

google , "akashamans kosmos"

all mp3`s at 320 ~

ha , u got some rare shite man : buy a lot on ebay ?

[rexmaster5]

HOLY SHIT> There are SOOOOOOOOOOO many bands just from the sixties we STILL haven't even heard of...WOW. My mind is blown. You tube is amazing if just for this fact

[1m2a3t4t5]

thats really cool

do you have gentle giant- three friends

[bantingjor]

i have a few records i wanna sell but i dont know what their worth or if their even worth much at all, their not even in the plastic but in good shape. can anyone help me out? (elvis christmas album, michael jackson thriller, supertramp,fleetwoodmac, the police, iron butterfly,eagles hotel california, richard pryor, the cult, stevie wonder, purple rain prince, sgt peppers lonely heart)

[myrecordcollection]

I'd hunt down a local record or music shop and see if they have any interest.

[bantingjor]

but if their worth anything theyll most likely try to rip me off

[myrecordcollection]

Well, the only real alternative is to become an expert--and quickly. To be honest, the stuff you're mentioning sounds like stuff people would want, but it also sounds like stuff that's not particularly rare.

[thedirtydeltas]

Records have gone up recently but don;t assume your Saturaday night fever,or your Abba is worth anything,these are common records, if its a common place mass produced record it really isn't worth anything,you might get a couple of bucks,if its a special edition mabe more.If you have anything rare and interesting like in this collection, it might be highly priced on Ebay.

[thedirtydeltas]

Things like Micheal Jackson will hold its value assuming the cond but its still a common place name and only popular now due to its current notoriety,because of Micheals death etc, is good,Supertramps(a bit like Abba,eagles too very common I see alot of it in my country) the average price I'd assume for a used record in good condition is around $10-20.

[thedirtydeltas]

but common records should go for as little as $5 to a dollar depending on condition.Its usually trashy pop you want to get rid of anyway.

[cratenerd]

That Touch record was a nice find. I found one a few years back with the poster inside. It also came with an orange paper band that slides over the jacket. My copy didn't include it though.

[gnome41]

That smooth as raw silk features the now infamous Michael Stanley from Cleveland Ohio. Great forgotton Cleveland band Thanks for posting this awesome collection. How about H.P. Lovecraft?

[myrecordcollection]

I have both of the two first Lovecraft albums. Look for them in an upcoming "Last Box of Records from Dan" video, which I'm currently working on.

[jenzeppelin]

Simply wonderful!!!

[Islwynpaul]

amazing collection man, well done.

[psychedelichippyfish]

ughh not faaiiirr. you lucky duckk!:P

[nopopkrap]

GREAT COLLECTION !, DO YOU HAVE ANY 45s ???????

THE SONICS RULE !

[acdeucee]

Now I want to hear them all! Ah just a tease. Smart to have kept all your old records...Wish I would a done that. Never saw the Big Picture

[twilightdimension]

does that touch album open up (the jacket cover) have a weird design cover? I cant explain it correctly i think thats the album my friend borrowed and I never got it back

[rybones77]

everybody shut up.you know you want these.

[flowwarp]

Youre right. Im just jealous, as I sold most of those (save Leathercoated Minds) and hundreds of other in the early 1990s to Village Music, Mill Valley, when I moved away from San Francisco. Its great to see them again. John

[flowwarp]

These are pretty much major label releases, pressed in thousands.

[myrecordcollection]

You're right, but "obscure" doesn't mean to say that they're "rare." Still, it's undeniable that something like the Leathercoated Minds album, which was pressed by the thousands, is surely rarer than something by the Rascals or Lovin' Spoonful, whose records were pressed by the hundreds of thousands or millions.

[TheFabStringbean]

The album cover art is great on them and large, frameable.

[imdanhoover]

i have the giant crab comes forth

[asorls1]

Touch featured ex Kingsmen keyboard player Don Gallucci. They have a great article on Wikipedia.

[theonlydjtopcat]

Unfortunately though most of these are not hard to find the hip hop beat collectors snapped up a lot of this psych stuff just to get a drum break then the dealers started selling them to the producers for ridiculous prices.

I know because I was one of them, but I also enjoyed listening to heavy fuzz driven psych ever since I was a kid. The Fool was on my want list for years I ended up buying it off a kid who had it in his hip hop crate just for the sample he had no clue lol :)

[wylinonwax]

I'm very, very jealous... that St. John Green record is so hard to find.

[AstralPlane1951]

The Fools also did Eric Claptons Gibson SG guitar during Disraeli Gears period known as the FOOLS Guitar. Later on they did a bass for Jack Bruce.

[GerardJasperse]

yeah The fool designed many thing for the beatles including the innersleeve for Sgt peppers that was never used because their manager didn't liked it... The fool also did the clothes for the magical mystery tour film and the most impressive thing: The apple boutique mural and most of the stuff that they sold was laso their work: clothes, posters etc..

I didn't know that people in the USA still know the fool, great painting, clothes and music

[burgersoft777]

Is the fool the same people who designed in the inner sleeve of the first pressing of Sgt pepper?

[myrecordcollection]

That's correct. They also did the cover for the Incredible String Band's 5000 SPIRITS album and the cover for Boudewijn de Groot's one album.

[Carlito1988]

The fool also did The Move's 1st album in the UK as well..

[GerardJasperse]

and also they asisted with the cover of the Hollies - evolution, they designed the psychedelic clothing

[squidlycarmichael]

Whalefeathers was a fantastic band from the Greater Cincinnati area (Fairfield, to be exact). I saw them at least a half-dozen times in my life (I was a sophomore in high school when they surfaced). Lenny LeBlanc left the band and went on to team with Pete Carr to form the LeBlanc-Carr band. Lenny was a slide player that could hold his own with Dwayne Allman. Killer bass player as well, and could sing like a songbird! I miss those days...

[mellymanfamily]

to be honest the majority of those albums are not very good, stick with 45's for usa psych. or get the common people, bachs, lazy smoke re-issues, a lot of the major label stuff is trash.

[nopopkrap]

YER SO RITE!, 45s KICK MAJOR aAS !, THE sonIcS RULE !!!!

[beaverteeth92]

Damn...

I've been looking all over for Touch. Would it be possible for you to upload it somewhere?

[myrecordcollection]

You can download it from the Red Telephone 66 blog. Just search Google for that blog and then search the blog for Touch.

[twilightdimension]

I seen the majority of your lps on red telephone blog are you connected to them? how many albums you have any idea? I sold my collection I had alot all gone now

[myrecordcollection]

No, no connection to that blog, although it is a good one. I suppose the owner just happens to *also* have good taste! I have roughly 600 albums, I would guess.

[twilightdimension]

Sounds cool, keep collecting, 600 isnt that much considering I had 12,000 at one time. I found it was the most fun discovering new bands and like you I collected stuff from the late sixties and early seventies mostly although I did buy rare metal lps too. keep rocking man

[onecondition]

you go through them so quickly! with a collection like that i wouldn't mind hearing you talk about them a bit more. very impressive stuff

[mistertai]

I don't understand this video! I want to hear some snippets.

[myrecordcollection]

Well, check out some of my other videos; they include quite a bit of music from some of these albums.

[PAULLONDEN]

Wow "The Fool"....the Dutch art collective,

that painted the Apple building,Clapton's Gibson SG,Lennon's Rolls Royce,and

that Incredible String Band "Onion" cover.

▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

[mesmeridium]

Records used to be great to collect.

Unfortunately for me it took only a few years of moving from location to location that records started to become burdensome. I wish I had just left them with Mom and Dad - they only move once every 20 years.

Great collection.

[1960jack]

Awesome dude! I wish I had those LP's!

great that you saved them for us to enjoy, at least looking at them.

[nesoquick]

are them for sale ??:)

[myrecordcollection]

I'm sure they are for sale somewhere, but not by me!

[shnaggletoother]

Quite an impressive collection. Until watching this video, I considered myself somewhat knowledgeable on the topic of obscure 60's/early 70's psych bands. But I only recognized two bands here: the Hassles (with Billy Joel) and St. John Green (I've been lucky enough to have stumbled across their LP twice).

[tonfan]

I saw Morning Glory when I was a kid in San Francisco and they were great-but the production just sucked on the Fontana album.The guitarist D. Nu delman was fantastic...wow-40 yrs. ago now....PS hey-who has stuff by Linn County ?- another great band who had a few albums released same era...

[myrecordcollection]

I totally agree with that. Despite his fame, Abe "Voco" Kesh didn't have much of an ear for recording. Check out the video I made for Morning Glory if you're curious.

[Shahrouz528]

This may be a very strange/random comment, but I just wanted to point out that you have a very clear, calm, and consistent voice that would be perfect for a radio show.

[myrecordcollection]

How about for teaching English? That's what I do.

[Shahrouz528]

That too I guess... I hope you took my comment (about the radio voice) as a compliment though! Because that's how I meant it

[folkrockm14]

man im gonna put my collection online i have almost all the main albums,i have the great psychedelic rock album from country joe and the fish electric music for mind and body.i also have king crimsons in the court of the crimson king in pristine,mint condition.

[freebird9073]

Just like to say what an amazing collection you have. You'd probably enjoy mine.

[19vital63]

You gatta put on U-Tube!!!

[Rybinov]

man ur videos have shown me so many bands ive never even heard of. I have a small record collection, but nothing like some of the stuff you have. I'm savin up for records, butin the meantime, just downloading the mp3s. it just sounds so natural in the vinal

[Nikolaii257]

I used to have another record album put out by the band KAK. They had tunes like Everything's Changing, and Electric Sailor.

"Who's this guy that runs around so free...

Who's this guy who's smile's so wide, his face is hard to see...It's Electric Sailor (He's come to Earth)."

There were a few others I had but I it's been well over 40 years now, and I'm an OG.

[sunshowermoondrop]

fuckin hell i thought i had a problem with music but jesus these guys must have a dangerous obsession just to of even heard of these bands

[wshflsnfl]

Auto salvage. Wow. I remember that cover on my friend's wall. Can't recall any of the songs. Thanks for the memory!

[tuttle1821]

The Hassles - Hour of the Wolf has Billy Joel singing and playing piano.

[jwvancappellen]

This is great! More to dig into

[politicalkook]

I noticed the "Touch" album. Boy oh boy did my friends and I here in small town Wi. get into this. One of my introductions and steady companions of many acid trips in 1968. Do you know anything about the group? Names that might have went on to more well know groups? Know anything about Aorta?

Very cool collection. R. Sano

[tuttle1821]

Go to progarchives and look up "T" then TOUCH.

[malawri67]

Cool stuff!How many records do you have?

Thanks for sharing.

[vincenz55]

For all you garage grunge type psychadelic music lovesr and collectors theres a listing on Ebay called Dies Irae Formula 3 italian garage type early rock from the 60s check it out. youll probably never see one of these lps ever again...its mega rare.

go to Ebay and type in

Dies Irae Formula 3 XRare

or the item number 300254870500

[nicobitles]

great collection !

[DickStainy]

Nice collection! Jeez?!

[ch473]

wow you're special.

[mrwells]

I have the giant Crab and the Hassels first album, and "had" the Fool. I sure was a fool for not keeping it. One album that I loved was glitter house"color blind", that whole album was great. It's on my wish list.

[75lester]

Thanks for showing your AWESOME collection!

I haven't heard of most of these bands and I'm familiar with a lot of obscure groups. Is The Hassles the band that Billy Joel was in during the 60's? I heard that he had played in a band from Long Island called The Hassles. he also played in an early heavy metal band called Attila (but you probably knew that). Thanks again.

[myrecordcollection]

Glad to hear you enjoyed the video here. The Hassles record I showed here definitely includes Billy Joel--or, as the liner notes say--William Joel. If you want to hear a song from this album, check out the video that I made for the Hassles.

[apollostaar]

Tingling Mothers Circus....thats just pure genius!!

[FranzDernet]

wanker!

[pauleyh]

i have most of those on cd's the rarest one i have on cd of your stack is an unreleased finished mastered cd of hour of the wolf on emi-america from 1992 cdp 7 92624 2. i t was supposed to be issued with the first hassles (1967) disc but since the first hassles was withdrawn on it's intial release date in 1992 they shelfed hour of the wolf and i happen to get my hands on one of the finished promos. they were both part of EMI's Legends of Rock n Roll Series.

[tubeghaliaa]

Autosalvage was my step-father's band, and definitely worth a listen.

The album has been recently reissued as a CD.

[Doppeldiva22]

Tell him "Autosalvage" was a great name for a band! "Autosavage" would be good too !

[TheFeuhrer]

Funny...several years ago I found a bunch of records in my friend's parent's attic. The house wasn't that old but he said that some old stoner uncle or cousin or something had left the records in their old house years ago when he went to prison or someplace and they never heard from him again, and when they moved they moved the records from attic to attic. The first two records were Ill Wind "Flashes" and T.I.M.E., just like your video. And The Travel Agency is great!

[PAULLONDEN]

That bunch is probably worth $1000,

but that does not anti matter .

Try to get the first of T.I.M.E.

Smooth Ball. nice sounds too,

BTW first Beacon Street Union is brilliant,

second sucks(I think).

European & Brittish psychedelia

ruled, in my opinion.If you want to go for

some rare nuggets, try Eire Apparent,(produced by Hendrix) and TwinK:Think Pink.

«d-_-b»

[myrecordcollection]

I have both T.I.M.E albums on CD but not record. Ditto for Eire Apparent, which is a pretty cool album. To be honest I've always thought that Beacon Street Union were a bit overrated. I think both albums have some bad tracks--like "Beautiful Delilah," for example.  Why on earth do we need another version of this when there's a perfectly good one on the first Kinks album? Still, "My Love Is," "Blue Avenue," and so on are great.

[bucksheespins]

I have a 45 of Unspoken Word, every time I look at it I wonder who else would know about these guys, and a couple of The Yellow Ballon. I would love to hear THe Love Exchange I bet their good just by the album cover. I wish when you showed these you would have told us the year they came out I think the year can help us place at least the style but I be a lot of are within 67 to 69 when a lot of these strange name groups came along. Just great!!!

[myrecordcollection]

The Love Exchange album was reissued on CD by Sundazed a few years ago. Even though I don't say what year they came out in the actual video, the years of release are included in the "about this video" info box to the right of the video. They're all listed there.

[bucksheespins]

oops, okay, I didn't look there. I'll check sure thing, thanks. I'm eating up your channel. You didn't let yourself get stuck on the basics of pop rock.

[PsychedelicGuy]

I also have another Unspoken Word 45 Nobody's Nothing/Boy they are some seriously great tracks if you like thier LP, if you want I'd be happy to send ya the mp3's if you dont know the songs

[revolution1940]

hey man, check out my collection of records, gimme some feedback

[dllewiszz]

These are truly some of the most obscure psych LPs. Excellent work collecting these.

[breakself]

Not terribly obscure, all things considering. Most of these albums are on major labels, meaning they were pressed in sizable runs and received decent distribution.

[MSPARKS]

Well ,actually they are obscure . These lp's might have been pressed on major lables , but as was common practice back then , the unsold copies were often destroyed .

[Naglfar6666]

Can you do a video where you tell us more about every record ? i love your videos !! please send me a mail if you do a video like that

All the best

[skidaddle84]

Would you have the Eclection album by any chance? Not strictly psych but certainly something of an obscurity as far as I'm aware

[myrecordcollection]

Good question. No, I have a copy of the poorly mastered Eclection CD on the Collectors Choice label, but I don't have an actual copy of the Eclection LP. I saw one once, but it was first of all overpriced and second of all the later pressing with the Elektra "butterfly" label. So I didn't buy it.

[harmonioushand]

dang, those are obscure, the only one I had heard of is the Fool, which i really love

[mellotrongirl]

Hmmm....all I have are Autosalvage and Touch. Two fine old albums I wouldn't let go of for the world!

[davefusa]

holy cow i've never heard of ANY of those records, and i'm a vinyl junkie. wtf!

[roppi]

that is epic! :O

[weenielongus]

(...dag, i've been lookin' for that album by 'the fool' since before this guy was born, now he pops up with it?? that jess ain't fair...)

[myrecordcollection]

It's the luck of the draw, my friend. I've found some cool stuff over the years, but believe me, there are still things I've been trying to find for years with no luck.

[junkdrum]

Touch was an awesome band, probably the missing link between psychedelic and prog.

[redtelephone66]

Autosalvage is, in my opinion, the greatest psychedelic lp of all time. I've been playing this album over and over for about a year now and still have not tired of it!!! FANTASTIC!!!

[trode3141]

finally,someone has st.john green...i just bought the cd,all the way from sweden,great remastering job,(the first lp release was in mono)....now all we have to do is post some soundbites,please

[RoyFive]

I think Lovin' Spoonful bassist Steve Boone's brother Skip was in Auto Salvage--wasn't Billy Joel in The Hassles?

[myrecordcollection]

You're right on both counts! To hear the Hassles, check out the video I made for the song "Night after Day."

[m8rt]

Yes, Billy Joel was in The Hassles

[tubeghaliaa]

...and Skip Boone was in Autosalvage

[Freak6006]
