The most colorful, detailed, and authoritative guide to the psychedelic albums of the 1960s ever published.
As the 1960s progressed, a socially conscious counterculture emerged—one defined by rock and roll. Artists began to explore trippy new sounds, musicianship reached unsurpassable levels, and
for a brief, glorious moment, audiences embraced the genuinely experimental. Never before or since were so many classic albums made in such a short time. From Cream’s Disraeli Gears to
the Zombies’ OdesseyandOracle, Psychedelia examines 100 of the era’s most groundbreaking records. Contemporary reviews, rare photographs, new interviews, and a
plethora of iconic images and reproductions of cover artwork make this a treasure no music fan should be without.

Airplane * Jimi Hendrix * Moody Blues * Mothers of Invention * Pink Floyd * Procol Harum * Quicksilver Messenger Service
* The Rolling Stones * Small Faces * Traffic * The Yardbirds * and many more!
