GANDALF sealed 1968 Stereo Capitol LP baroque-psychedelia Koppelman and Rubin
In 1968 this New York state group drifted into the Big Apples famed club The Night Owl Cafe. Record producers Koppelman and Rubin produced this LP of baroque-psychedelia using a bit of slightly weird, spacey production. At its finest this classic Capitol LP features bandleader Peter Sandos slightly experimental, harmonic sunshine pop with a feel along the lines of Californian cult figures Gary Usher and Curt Boettcher.
This is a STEREO recording.
More sixties classic garage and psychedelic sounds from all over North America.

The first album to bring immediate national success to this tiny groundbreaking label,
International Artists. THE 13th FLOOR ELEVATORS swept from Texas, creatively and culturally led by two early drug aficionados,
Stacy Sutherland and
Tommy Hall, continually coaxing along their perplexing singer,
Roky Erickson. The2nd
13th FLOOR ELEVATORS LP still features
Roky Erickson. More consistently cohesive the longer tracks subtly grow on the listener. The band seems to be more comfortable with their trippy, loose psychedelia invention.
TRUK This Okie unit was probably more hard rock than garage rock. Its main distinction was that former
Buffalo Springfield drummer,
Dewey Martin produced half the album.California folk-pop-psych that sometimes expands into a bit of baroque jazz. Dave Hassinger produced

WILKINSON TRI-CYCLE on the original Date Records. In 1968 this New York state group drifted into the Big Apples famed club
The Night Owl Cafe. Record producers
Koppelman and Rubin produced this LP of baroque-psychedelia using a bit of slightly weird, spacey production. It became
Gandalf's only release.
Mad Rivers maturation process unfolded in San Francisco. The LP is notable as a recording/playback error resulted in the final product playing higher and faster than originally recorded. Showcasing sweet harmony and jangling guitars,
Wests Byrds-styled cover of
Dylan's
Just Like Tom Thumbs Blues hit the national record charts.
