hongkongscene Said:

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 rāgas 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 ” …

    The Beatles sucked anyhow

    and even by the time Sgt. Pepper came out, they were distancing themselves from the hippy movement cos they were smart enough to see that although it promoted some very important values it was a dangerous mix of commerce and drugs. Harrison went to Haight Ashbury and said it was awful, homeless kids stumbling about smashed on DMT…oh and if were bickering about the 1st psych band, thats easy. 13th Floor Elevators. Nuff said…

  3. neilus Says:

    True. I just get really hacked off with people saying the Beatles jumped on the psych bandwagon. Norweigan Wood, 1965, one of, if not THE, first use of a sitar which opened peoples eyes to Indian music and more importantly for the era, Indian philosophy.Then in 66 youve lots of people begining to make pretty trippy music INCLUDING the Beatles. You can hardly say they jumped on the bandwagon cos to my mind theres only 5 or 6 Beatles tracks which could really be described as psychedelia

    The Beatles like anyone got ideas from other songs, then usually improved on it. They did inovate and were loaded with talent. I thought most of the songs they did cover turned out better. They figured out pretty quickly they could create original songs, and they worked at.

  5. neilus Says:

    Umm, in a word, yes. No disrespect mate but if you think the Beatles ripped off a fairly unremarkable blue band and took that influence to produce Strawberry Fields Forever then i guess we’ll just have to agree to differ. I know very little about the GD because none of the run of the mill blues i heard inspired me to check them out further…

  6. DAVWAVE Says:

    Well, if they did, it was hard to tell, because they were so much better than everyone, John, Paul, George and Ringo were an unbeatable combination, and everyone knew it.

    That 3 day Ken Kesey Prankster Acid Test.
    Was called The Trips Festival I was there.
    1/66 Totally completely Amazing what was going on. There was no place in the World taking Freedom Further & Louder & Higher in Mass & Ways like Way Out on The Far Western Edge of the USA.
    Before the Hippie/Flower Child’s came.
    High Times in The Wild West..

    I like these vids, there was a series on (get this) VH1 The 60’s or the Hippies. Both have info on the era, not one genre. VH1, (apx 2-3 hours) had a lot of footage of the biggest fests, arrests, and yes, deaths. All the parts of what was being fought against..bring back power to the people, now,voting for a guy offering help to get the power-back. Lets rock the world again, like we did last year! We can keep OUR reps honest, just send emails to them, it works,they are on OUR clock again!

  9. TREYOLDHIPPIE Says:

    hipsters..a little less ignorant, if one must shove a whole generation focused on all kinds of change.. into a BAG. There is some merit to this vid, but they digress in the end and go back to the generalization and the “must do drugs to be cool’ garbage. Life goes on, more young people do their own discoveries, unless their parents ‘protect’ them and they learn nothing except what is taught in college. o well.. It was good to not have it all delivered on a platter, IMHO.

    Beatles seemed to act like goof balls…But I loved that about them…

  11. pontecorvo Says:

    Nah mate I agree with you. If it wasn’t for those bands and Syd Barrett, The Beatles would still be going with tunes like “I wanna Hold Your Hand.”

  12. CRACKtakular Says:

    jeez am i the only one who thinks the beatles swag jacked the dead and all the current happenings in america at that time? ran with the whole sound?

  13. mellowstone420 Says:

    It’s all good lol, people will always think what they want. You’d have to understand the lifestyle and culture more, this video isn’t enough ya know

  14. DEKMAN99 Says:

    The Grateful Dead were really a crappy band . Their music stink.

  15. DEKMAN99 Says:

    Pink Floyd and Grateful Dead boring as hell. The Beatles were kings.

  16. ebaum1saik Says:

    I totally agree. Pink Floyd and Grateful Dead jamming in 1965-1966 is where the true trippy psychedelic rock came from.

  17. mysterieorgel Says:

  18. sanjudasiscariote Says:

    buen capítulo..el más interesante..je.-… kesey..pranksters..acid-test.-………¿alguien sabe dónde está el resto, el de dylan, el del blues…?

  19. saladstassio Says:

    no they werent… they jumped on and off the band wagon…they could play trippy but they couldnt jam… they never played an hour long dark star…everything they did was planned,..nothing spontaneous…no jams… far from kings!

  20. mecoolerest001 Says:
