What makes an album psychadelic anyways? I mean, I wouldn't consider Are You Experienced to be particularly psychadelic, but maybe there's some golden criteria that I just don't know about.

[QUOTE]Heh heh....I just started listening to The Doors Live At Hollywood bowl, but I forgot that the song titles got mixed up. I was like "hmmm, I don't remember hearing a version of When The Music's Over that starts like this, awesome!" Then it turned out to be something else (woah, I don't remember what song it was, the song just ended like a minute ago...my memory sucks)[/QUOTE]:lol: What?

It doesn't matter if the s/t is more Psychedelic, the fact (yes, FACT :p) still remains as:

Happy Trails > s/t

NP: What I'd Say (Parts 1 & 2) - Ray Charles (<---:cool:)

Yeah, I don't really know either.

I've been listening to the full Kick Out The Jams album lately. I liked the title track, but never really got into the full album, but I am now.

Also, I saw Ted Nugent being interviewed on TV tonight. What a nutter.

I dunno...I think psychadelic is like...blues pop, not blues rock, blues pop. Catchy, light melodies that have alot of blues in them, with alot of overdrive and feedback, etc.

Everything besides Starship is great.

I also like QMS s/t more than Happy Trails. Gold and Silver is amazing.

That's my favorite song on the album. Psychedelic Jazz, mmm.

Why do ya think that? :p

I dunno, hard to explain.

I think it is reasonable. I think that is the defintion of the listenable form of psychadellic.

I think you've mistaken me for Krabsman.

So is The White Album, MMT, Sgt. Peppers considered psychadellic?

[QUOTE=Schyma]I think you've mistaken me for Krabsman.[/QUOTE]
Fine, there can be two Nazis. :p

[QUOTE]Psychedelic?[/QUOTE]
The White Album? No
MMT? Yes
Sgt. Peppers? Yes

I think only Sgt. Pepper's and Magical Mystery Tour was really psychadellic, and I like those albums, but I find Piper At The Gates Of Dawn very meh, and as I understand, that is the epitome of psychadellic.

I'll agree PATGOD isn't exactly the easiest album to get into, but after a few listens it came around for me. I wouldn't say it's my favourite, but it's no slouch either.

I didn't like it at all the first time I listened to it. I haven't listened to it since.

I've listened PATGOD and Saucerful numerous times, just trying to get used to it, but I can't. Saucerful is boring, only a two tracks are really good, I forget the names, the rest are just 5-7 minutes of sound effects...boring. PATGOD just wasn't a fun listen. Matilda Mother and See Emily Play are the only cool tracks, the rest is just kind of random psychadellic randomness.

Disregarding your comments on one of my absolute favorite albums, what are your top 5 favorite albums? Infact what [I]do[/I] you listen to? Ever since you've been here I've had no clue as to what in the hell you listen to. You just say you hate everything. So....care to introduce us to why you enjoy music? I'm extremly curious.....:)

Psychadelic music is very hit-or-miss (when it's bad, it's really, trully terrible), and it tends to get tiring---I can't listen to those whimsical British pop ditties for too long.

Listen to PATGOD when your stoned;)..while camping if possible. It worked for me. I like SOS more than PATGOD. The song structures seemed more maturely written to me. But I haven't listened to it in a while..

Hmmmm okay. This will be hard.

1. (tied) Charles Mingus-Mingus Ah Um/Cream-Fresh Cream
2. Wes Montgomery-Tequila
3. Beatles- Let It Be
4. Miles Davis-Kind Of Blue
5. Rolling Stones-40 Licks.

Those are some pretty ballsy choices. I gotta admit I respect you more now.

This just in:

Bell Bottom Blues > everything else Derek and the Dominoes recorded.

That is a pretty good top 5, actually. Althought 40 Licks seems like a cop out to me.

I put 40 Licks on there because I think the Stones were the single greatest singles band of all time, and 40 Licks is singles.

I'll add 5 more.

1. (tied) Charles Mingus-Mingus Ah Um/Cream-Fresh Cream
2. Wes Montgomery-Tequila
3. Beatles- Let It Be
4. Miles Davis-Kind Of Blue
5. Rolling Stones-40 Licks.
6. NWA-Straight Outta Compton
7. Thelonious Monk-Genius Of Modern Music
8. Van Halen-1984
9. Bob Dylan-Blonde On Blonde
10. Brad Paisley-Mud On The Tires

[QUOTE=DeuxExMachina]Bell Bottom Blues > everything else Derek and the Dominoes recorded.[/QUOTE]

That Derek and the Dominos album > everything Eric Clapton has recorded

Van Halen's [i]1984[/i]! Man I love the balls on this guy.

The problem with [i]40 Licks[/i] is that aside from five or six songs, the second disc is utterly and completely unlistenable. The two [i]Hot Rocks[/i] collections are better IMO.

[QUOTE=Woodstock]Everything besides Starship is great.[/QUOTE]
lies. starship isnt bad. but motor city is burning is the best song on there. no lie!

my asshole cousin spilled half a cup of sugary coffee on my laptop. that was at about 7 and it just started working. the keyboard is hardcore sticky and the battery doesnt work but im pleased with the progress. i couldve killed him.

I've pretty much blocked out the latter Rolling Stones albums completely :-/
