#1960s

VARIOUS ARTISTS
Love, Peace & Poetry (Japanese Psychedelic Music)
2001 Germany compilation
Translucent vinyl

Last week, I posted the Chilean volume of this cool series, and now I’m giving the Japanese one a spin.

This one may be my favorite, as it’s got the legendary MOPS on it, as well as a great track from the very underrated Food Brain, who’s amazing album Social Gathering was just reissued by the Cosmic Rock label.

Apryl Fool has two songs here too, one of which being “Tomorrow’s Child”, a gnarly, trippy morsel of #psych trippitude.

Just a killer collection of 17 great late-#60s psych tunes from west of the Pacific.

ISAAC HAYES
Hot Buttered Soul
1971 Canada reissue

Oh man.
No better record for a Saturday night.
Note-perfect, timeless masterpiece.

Give me a choice of one NON rock record to take to a desert island, and it might have to be this.

Also, even with all the GREAT #psych #garage and #psychedelic classic rock from the decade, THIS is my favorite 60s album of all time.

In a different toot I mentioned remembering a really thick fog / smog event in 1962 when I was a child in North London.

We don't get these thanks to pollution controls and legislative red tape.
"Big beautiful coal" was killing people!

There's a BBC new report on the link below.
