Let's spin some psych for the Lama!

Although I didn't know him personally I can't stop thinking about Patrick's passing either.
I'm sure he would like us to listen to some psychedelic records. That's what his work was all about. Digging deeper and deeper into that field and spreading the word.
I listened to some psych the last few days anyway, while reading in the Acid Archives. So why not do it together? A little psych council in the name of the Lama.
It would be nice if you'd join in and play some of your favorite psychedelic records, no matter if unknown or popular, from albums or 45s, anything you like.
I'll just make a start. Probably the loudest and best sounding 45 I have.

I've been playing the newly released Jagged Edge LP on Big Beat these last days and I shed a tear thinking about Patrick and how much he woulda loved this major unearthing. It's an incredible record and I'm stoked that things like this still turn up in 2014

Here's one of Patrick's fave songs and one of the few 45s he kept when he began focusing solely on LPs

Flakes of snow fall. Melancholic acidic ripples shimmering.

Got a few dozen of my favorite psych tracks together. Pour one out for Patrick and enjoy...

Same here, been thinking about the Llama on many occassions these past days and dedicated this month's edition of my little radio show to him and his "Acid Archives" work. Here's a track from probably my fave discovery thanks to the book:

I don't get it, sounds like John Denver to me.

I don't get it, sounds like John Denver to me.

They call that "folk psych".
As far as John Denver goes, I prefer this:

This link is certainly not psych. Patrick and I had many conversations over the years about music and one of the things I was proudest about is that I was able to have an impact on his musical direction. A few years back in a now nonexistent forum I sent a compilation to Patrick entitled, 'Bluto's Revenge' which he told me forced him to reevaluate the frat bands, pure 'garage' albums, and pre- Beatles vanity pressings in a more positive and lenient place among the monster albums of the era. He mentioned he had become a little obsessive in his pursuit of these records after Bluto, and went so far as to use the Bluto terminology in his Acid Archives books as a title in his Top 10 lists. Bluto is also sprinkled liberally through the book in his descriptions. Here's one for you my pal. Me and Bluto are raising one in your direction: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sYsWlIeEb60

I know that. I just don't get why anyone would like it.

Because some people are into wimpy folk/folk rock that gets hyped as psych.
Many of them also hug trees and don't eat red meat.

That's awesome man...gonna spin "Pour another round for Bluto" right now in honor of our fallen comrade!

Because some people have tastes in music different than yours.

So what if I like John Klemmer? So what if they like folk music? What do you care?

Aw c'mon...let's not see Patrick's RIP thread get sent to the "don't press your luck" forum

Aw c'mon...let's not see Patrick's RIP thread get sent to the "don't press your luck" forum

Bluto would DEFINITELY disapprove of that!

Certainly hope it doesn't go there. My apologies if I've done something wrong.
