brilliant psychedelic folkrock.
so many gems of trippiness and poignance and beauty and often some social commentary to boot.

One word:
Bass Strings
If you were eating acid back in '67 and hanging out at the beach then you understand.

eeeyeah,..can you imagine someone like Britany or Xtina covering Bass Strings these days? Man, they just dont write great lyrics like this anymore:
Hey partner, won't you pass that reefer round,
My world is spinnin', yeah, just got to slow it down.
Oh, yes you know I've sure got to slow it down.
Get so high this time that you know
I'll never come down, I'll never come down.
I believe I'll go out to the seashore, let the waves wash my mind,
Open up my head now just to see what I can find.
Oh, yes you know I'm gonna see what I can find,
Just one more trip now, you know I'll stay high
All the time, all the time.
Yes, I'll go out to the desert just to try and find my past.
Truth lives all around me, but it's just beyond my grasp.
Oh, yes you know it's just beyond my grasp.
I'll let the sand and the stars and the wind
Carry me back, oh carry me back.
