The 30 Greatest Psychedelic Rock Songs (1966-1968)

I'm just f***ing lucky to remember when these (or most of them) made their debut. I pity the poor sods who are force-fed the diarrhea that passes for music these days.

They weren’t

I was born in the early 50s and I got to see The Beatles on Ed Sullivan that changed my whole life.
I am thankful that I got to be Exposed to all the wonderful music. From rock and roll to psychedelic There wasn't a better time on Earth for music.
I don't listen to a lot of the old Music Anymore Like I Used To but if You WANT your mind to be blown completely away Listen to (Deep Purple sweet child in time) There are so many that I love, Pink Floyd being one of them comfortably numb one of my very very favorites.
Led Zeppelin I can't even begin to start.
You young people have so many choices and so many ways to go it must be wonderful, Look backwards once in a while and see what the freaks were doing Back in the 60s and 70s

Grow up, drug music stinks.

66 i was only 12 but had witnessed the change from that night in 63 on ed sullivan beatles changed things in such a major way i sometimes wonder if we really realize the change that went on from that moment in music history. The one really cool thing was my friend had a older sister who hooked us onto fm radio and thongs were never the same.

Good list. Three I might include are "When I Was Young" by the Animals, "Happenings Ten Years Time Ago" by the Yardbirds, and "Venus in Furs" by the Velvet Underground.

Anyone knows a couple of tracks in "crimson & clover" style? Similar in melody, tune, speed...

I was born in 67 but I grew up listening to this music and still do along with the 50's 60's 70s 80s 90's and some of today's

Can't hang with any Psych video that includes the Beach Boys, sorry.

LMAO

We listen to the Doors in Viet Nam...alot

These people were all flying on buttloads of weed and psychedelics and they couldn't come up with videos more creative than these?

Too many Beatles songs that aren't really psychedelic

I was 16-18 during that period. Overall, pretty good selection. But no Cream? Take out Tommy S and replace with Sunshine of yr love my cheap suggestion. peace out

Missing "Pictures of Matchstick Men"

-Paint It Black, the Rolling Stones
-Somebody to Love, Jefferson Airplane
-Sunshine Superman, Hurdy Gurdy Man, Mellow Yellow, Donovan
-I Am the Walrus, the Beatles
-Magic Bus, I Can See For Miles, The Who
-A Whiter Shade of Pale, Procul Harem
-White Room, Cream
-Careful with That Axe, Eugene, Pink Floyd
-Shape of Things, the Yardbirds

Did anyone spot the composer of the riff of Sweet Home Alabama?

Just to think all of this was created with in a 2 - 3 year period 🤯

Excelente recopilación.

Lots of psyche tunes covered, but missed some core stuff, ie: Frijid Pink (House of the Rising Sun) and early Pink Floyd.

The Lemon Pipers green tambourine should have been on here

Listen to the flower people by spinal tap!!🤣🤣🤣🤣

Anything Ten Years After is more acid rock than anything you stuck on this

Fire - Arthur brown??

Missed Jeff Beck and the Yardbirds

@:09 The Seeds drummer was joining the Ramones

The Beach Boys were never a psychedelic band.

How did " Ballad Of You, Me And Pooneil Jefferson Airplane 1967 " ever make this list ? Talk about an obscure nothing song ...

Steve Winwood and Traffic are still great listening!

the Beatles' recording is "She Said, She Said" NOT "Tomorrow Never Knows"

I would include several Byrd's songs from younger than yesterday, like Thoughts and words, Time between us, Have you seen her face.

Any particular reason why you didn’t list title and artist on each? Kids asinine and defeats the purpose of a list if you don’t include such pertinent information.

La belle music !!! Quel époque !!! j'adore !!!

The four horsemen is my jam, Aphrodite’s Child was one great band. Short life.

If you remember the 60s.....you weren't there...

Hurry Gurdy Man by Donovan should have made the cut.

I don't consider Turn Turn Turn Psychedelic

You called it "greatest," not "my favorite," and yet no Grateful Dead. I must be tripping.

..........................uh who made this list.........................where is Iron Butterfly.............................

More Honorable Mentions:

"Earthquake"--the 13th Floor Elevators
"Love Has Found A Way"--Spirit
"Egyptian Kings"--Brainticket
"Maggot Brain"--Funkadelic

THANKS FOR HIGHLIGHTING GREAT TIMES, BACK IN STYLE! Born in LA, LOVE The Doors, but 'Light My Fire' is Rock. Beach Boys are Great, yet as sugar pop soft as early Beatles, including 'Penny Lane'. Beatles 'TNK', and Donovan's 'Sunshine Superman' (charted #1 in UK), 'Season Of The Witch' (Jimmy Page Guitar), 'Hurdy Gurdy Man' were def Quintessential Psych Hits. Buffaloe Springfield (Stephen Stills's Country-Psych hit 'For What It's Worth') played at Palos Verdes's Rolling Hills High School prom. San Francisco Bay Area's Quicksilver Messenger Service, John Cippolina on guitar, deservingly went GOLD, often playing w It's A Beautiful Day band at Fillmore West. Hot Tuna, spinoff of The Airplane, was post 1968, yet definitely worth Honorable Psychedelic Mention. Along w Arlo Guthrie's 'Running Down The Road' and 'Darkness Darkness' by The Youngbloods.

Beatles?

Great gesture;
Though.. Listening to each song without interruptions would be more fulfilling, rather than a tease.

And a lot of other bands that weren't really!

I know what you mean but I guess Good vibrations was considered psychedelic

Thanks for the memories but ya gotta have, Hocus Pocus by Focus

Why make a video with this content and not put the name of the artists? Just sayin

I was born in September 11 1976
