stanley5.blogspot.com ??????History of Psychedelic Rock ??????Part 3 ????Psychedelic rock is a style of rock music that attempts to replicate the mind-altering experiences of hallucinogenic drugs. It emerged during the mid 1960s among garage and folk rock bands in Britain and the United States. Psychedelic rock is a bridge from early blues-based rock to progressive rock and heavy metal, but it also drew on non-Western sources such as Indian music’s r?gas and sitars. While the first contemporary musicians to be influenced by psychedelic drugs were in the jazz and folk scenes, the first use of the term “psychedelic” in popular music was by the “acid-folk” group The Holy Modal Rounders in 1964, with the song “Hesitation Blues.”[citation needed] The first use of the word “psychedelic” in a rock music context is usually credited to The Deep, and the earliest known appearance of this usage of the word in print is in the title of their 1966 album The Psychedelic Moods of the Deep. Roky Erickson, lead singer of The 13th Floor Elevators, coined the term ‘psychedelic rock’ in a 1966 interview. In 1962, British rock embarked on a frenetic race of ideas that spread back to the US with the British Invasion. The folk music scene also experimented with outside influences. In the tradition of Jazz and blues many musicians began to take drugs, and include drug references in their songs. Beat Generation writers like William Burroughs, Jack Kerouac, Allen Ginsberg and …

@MidnightDC696969 The song is “For What It’s Worth” by the Buffalo Springfield. The band’s members included some names you might recognize: Stephen Stills (who wrote that song), Neil Young, Richie Furay, Bruce Palmer (later replaced by Jim Messina) and Dewey Martin. It’s ironic to hear them in documentary about psychedelic rock, because they were really the progenitors of the LA sound that dominated the ’70’s (Young himself said The Eagles carried on “the spirit of the Buffalo Springfield”).

If this documentary is about the San Francisco music scene, why are they playing the most recognizable hit of a prominent L.A.-based band at 01:53?

Hi @Substantive64, I met Ravi in San Diego when I was studying at UCSD, which is where Ravi was teaching as a Regents Prof. Anyhow, I asked Ravi about the Beatles and hippies in general, and I assure you he doesn’t have any negative feelings about them. He’s a smart man, and well aware that it was the hippies who brought Ravi to the attention of Western listeners. Right wing boomers were definitely not interested in Ravi or anything off the Western axis for that matter.

Well,how ironic, that Ravi was angry that hippies thought they had to do psychedelics to meditate and play the sitar,etc. How was he never able to get that through to all the hippie shits in Frisco? Or anywhere else? Just shows ,for the umpteen-thousandth time,how childish,self-righteous,not-so-intellectually-superior (among too many rotten characteristic traits ) the hippies,and Lefty Boomers were.

Grace Slick is far, FAR too modest about her voice. I sing classical music and I can’t belt it out like her. Everybody’s gotta do something, and she did what she did very well.
Also…you wanna dick her. HA!

Mushrooms, frogs, flying reindeers, they are part of the iconography of fairy tales. Sustances. Shamanism, the common religion for siberians, maya, aztecs and many other cultures. But the sustances were dangerous, so complex rituals and initiations were required to take them. The result is some disconnection for the reality, but which is considered as an opening, to a different spiritual world. But then you start seeing ghosts and shadows everywhere…

the hippies were only practicing what the Indian culture had already been practicing for hundreds of years. except in our case we needed drugs to reach it.

Nah, Jim has a great voice like Sinatra or Martin. Lou reed is very nasal and at that time he tried to sound like the N.Y girl groups . Morrison sound was more 1940’s American pop. I just find the Doors very overrated and plain.

when i first heard velvet underground i thought tht lou reed was jim morrison to me they sounded alike and i like both bands and i dont understand if ur agreeing with me or disagreeing
