Re: Record Collector (UK) - List of lists

Post by VacantJoy »

Psychedelia USA: Top 40 US Psychedelic Singles - Record Collector

(Christmas 2006)

Chosen by musician & leading psych collector Erik Lindgren: “My criteria for this list was to pick the most imaginative, excessive & creative songs released as 7”s in the latter half of the 60s. Extra points were given for sophisticated composition, dynamic production & colourful lyrics. Unique musical textures such as backwards sounds, theremin/electronics, heavy echo/reverb & other interesting sonic effects helped in their rank.”

I’ve given the prices of any of these that were rated, in the original article at over $100. Where this is the case, I’ve also given the label. Don’t get excited until you’ve checked the details with an expert! And prices are for records in excellent condition.
