The Outer Minds - Live at Chicago Psychfest 2013

I was at this show. It was fantastic. The classic psych vibe lives into the digital millennium.

Heart - Soul of the Sea → Dreamboat Annie

Most of Heart's really good stuff doesn't get radio airplay. Their Seventies albums contain some of the best "deep tracks". This is the one that's most recently wormed its way into my head. A curious cross-breed of folk, rock, and something I can't quite place. No full album available on the 'Tube for this one, it seems; shame, because this song is supposed to lead directly into the next. (Though I could just add that video right below; I think I will. [edits post title])

The Association - Birthday

Conceivably the harmony-pop band's masterpiece. Soaring, dreamy, other-worldly group vocal bliss. And great lyrics of Sixties love. This album really ought to have made it into one of Lucy in Cyberspace's "Eight Favorite Albums" posts. Maybe it's time for a third such installment. Anyway, enjoy!

"I took off my watch and found I have all the time in the world."

Love - Willow Willow

From whichever cranial crevice it had been holed up in, this later selection by Arthur Lee's band has emerged and been making the rounds in my head of late. And I'm letting it breathe by releasing it to a dynamic audience. Enjoy.

Bulldog Breed - Halo in My Hair

UK mod-rock classic.
