I appreciate what you said about Jimi Hendrix as a songwriter, those three Experience albums are so good, because they’re loaded with great songs! I subscribed
My favorite! I got to meet Arthur at the Glastonbury Festival. I was so honored when one of my photos was chosen for his memorial service. Hope you had a chance to see LOVE or Arthur play live. P.S. "67"was the year!

Thank you for bringing back all those great memories with Tim Hardin, the Who, Jefferson Airplane, Traffic, Dylan, Leonard Cohen, the Kinks, Love, Procol Harum and the Doors among my favorite artists of all time.
The Moby Grape album has been released on CD by San Francisco Sound, Edsel and Sundazed. The Sundazed is a very nice release but it was deleted very soon because of copyright issues. I was lucky enough to get a copy and I love it. You know, in 1967 I was 13 and I had some surgery done and I felt very ill. When I woke up I saw my oldest brother sitting beside my bed and he was holding up two LPs, Dylan's John Wesley Harding and the first Moby Grape. For you, he said. I recovered quite fast! Love those albums still.
My Favorite Albums From 1967: 01 - STRANGE DAYS (The Doors) 02 - ARE YOU EXPERIENCED (The Jimi Hendrix Experience) 03 - FOREVER CHANGES (Love) 04 - SURREALISTIC PILLOW (Jefferson Airplane) 05 - ABSOLUTELY FREE (The Mothers Of Invention) 06 - THE BONNIWELL MUSIC MACHINE (The Music Machine) 07 - EASTER EVERYWHERE (The Thirteenth Floor Elevators) 08 - ELECTRIC MUSIC FOR THE MIND AND BODY (Country Joe And The Fish) 09 - THE VELVET UNDERGROUND AND NICO (The Velvet Underground) 10 - YOUNGER THAN YESTERDAY (The Byrds) 11 - VANILLA FUDGE (Vanilla Fudge) 12 - INCENSE AND PEPPERMINTS (The Strawberry Alarm Clock) 13 - ONE NATION UNDERGROUND (Pearls Before Swine) 14 - ROTARY CONNECTION (Rotary Connection) 15 - CLEAR LIGHT (Clear Light) 16 - THE PARABLE OF ARABLE LAND (The Red Crayola) 17 - BUFFALO SPRINGFIELD AGAIN (Buffalo Springfield) 18 - SAFE AS MILK (Captain Beefheart And His Magic Band) 19 - MOBY GRAPE (Moby Grape) 20 - SMILEY SMILE (The Beach Boys)
Tu as tout dit ! A partir de minuit nous écoutions Radio Caroline (Bizarrement les ondes ne passaient que la nuit). A l'annonce de la sortie du nouvel LP de notre groupe préféré, notre cœur se mettait à battre la chamade. Quelle chance d'avoir eu quinze ans cette année là. 😍 🌈
Excellent choices. Thank you! 🙏 As you mentioned, you could have chosen 40 albums; I hope Eric Burdon & the Animals album “Winds of Change” (1967) is included. To me that album is mesmerizing. 🥰
Hi, great list, they are all great albums, i would add some of my favourite albums: the Byrds younger than yesterday, Country Joe and the fish -music for body and mind, Jefferson Airplane - After bathing at Baxter's, Tim Buckley - Goodbye and Hello As far as yours are concerned, Forever changes is my favourite
Nice channel, and subscribed. It's rare I find someone with such similar tastes in music as me, especially from someone who must be significantly younger than me.
Great work this. I still have 17 of these same albums in the original jackets. What a great year.....maybe the best. One I would have on the list is The Byrds’ “Younger Than Yesterday”. Thanhs
Man, that was a good year for music! I like that you only put one album per band. I love Mystery Tour but I could not put it over Pepper. I probably would rank all these albums differently but I enjoy your perspective.
Excellent list! Forever Changes is a true classic. Please be in touch I took some special photos of Arthur Lee at the Glastonbury Festival. The new LOVE played the whole album with horns and strings. It was amazing!
Terrific post. 1967 is probably over represented relative to other years in my collection. Incredible riches. I've been guilty of Procol Harum one hit fallacy.
My birth year! Terrific list; three favorites of mine from that year include Incredible String Band's 5000 Spirits, the Rascals ' Groovin' and (US) Kaleidoscope's Side Trips (RIP David Lindley).
Everything on this list I agree with. I would like to add a few soul albums to the list. Mostly Motown albums like the Four Gold's Reach Out, Temptations's With a Little Soul, Stevie Wonders I Was Made To Love Her and The Miracles's Make It Happen album. 's
Great list. Nice you mentioned MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR. Not known as an album here in Belgium but so glad you Americans released it as such. Sounds like a greatest hits album. Something Else by The Kinks is a true classic too. Probably their best? Such great tunes. STRANGE DAYS is vintage Doors. It is a real disgrace ROLLING STONE did not include it in its all time top 500. But then again, never mind R.S. : third division mag compared to say MOJO or UNCUT.
Agree on those magazines - I love classic rock magazine too - record collector - the big takeover is a great US magazine but only comes out twice a year
I appreciate the explanation of why Magical Mystery Tour might not be considered to be a real album. Here in America, I just assumed it was released that way everywhere.
As Thomas Roth has pointed out the Moby Grape album has been re-released on CD. The Sundazed release remastered the album and included extra tracks. Although deleted it can be picked up on discogs (at a price)!
I own all those on vinyl except for Procol Harum and the MerryGoRound....all fantastic albums....I would include..'Absolutely Free' - Zappa and the Mothers, Safe as Milk - Captain Beefheart, Pipers at the Gates - The Floyd and A Hard Road - John Mayall
Had a large vinyl collection that I eventually converted to CD. Kept buying CDs until my wife said - We're running out of room!!!! So I ripped them and put them on UA-cam. When everything was ripped, I took a look by year, and 1967 by far is the most common year in my collection following by 1966 and 1968.
Fantastic list! I too would rank Are You Experienced at Number 1. Hendrix the Great Musician has totally obscured Hendrix the Great Songwriter, so I'm glad that you emphasized that aspect of his genius. With Moby Grape, I'm a bit sorry that you didn't mention 8:05, the best heartbreak ballad of the 60s that never became a hit.
Great choices, a flawless list. Has many of my favourites, too. The only albums I would add to this are 'Goodbye and Hello' by Tim Buckley and the 'Notorious Byrd Brothers' by the Byrds. So this would be my Top 22. Thank you for a great video! Greetings from Germany.
We've got plenty in common on this one as it's hard to argue against most of the top choices, though Moby Grape and Procol Harum are bubbling under for me, and I have to include the psychedelic classics by Pink Floyd, Art (soon to be Spooky Tooth), 13th Floor Elevators. And Aretha. The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced? The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico Aretha Franklin - I Never Loved A Man The Way I Loved You Love - Forever Changes Pink Floyd - The Piper At the Gates Of Dawn The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Axis: Bold As Love The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Small Faces - There Are But Four Small Faces The Beatles - The Magical Mystery Tour The 13th Floor Elevators - Easter Everywhere The Kinks - Something Else Leonard Cohen - Songs Of Leonard Cohen George Russell - Electronic Sonata For Souls Loved By Nature Art - Supernatural Fairy Tales The Doors - The Doors Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - Safe As Milk The Doors - Strange Days James Carr - You Got My Mind Messed Up Tim Buckley - Goodbye And Hello Small Faces - From the Beginning Pharoah Sanders - Tauhid Traffic - Mr. Fantasy/Heaven Is In Your Mind The Rolling Stones - Their Satanic Majesty’s Request The Who - The Who Sell Out The Byrds - Younger Than Yesterday Thelonious Monk - Straight, No Chaser Wilson Pickett - The Sound Of Wilson Pickett The Left Banke - Walk Away Renée/Pretty Ballerina Kaleidoscope - Tangerine Dream Irma Thomas - Something Good: The Muscle Shoals Sessions
Pink Floyd 1st, Quicksilver Messenger Service 1st, Savoy Brown 1st, Steppenwolf 1st, Ten Year After 1st. The other 15 would be on the 20 list in this video and other non-rock LP's.
Top 5: 1. Odessey and Oracle - The Zombies 2. Days of Futures Passed - The Moody Blues 3. Forever Changes - Love 4. Strange Days - The Doors 5. Sgt. Peppers - The Beatles
First Spirit album ,West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band A Child’s Garden Of Good and Evil, 1st Quicksilver Messenger Service,Clear Light ,Carnival of Life Lee Michaels
Pink Floyd’s “Piper At The Gates Of Dawn” would be in my top 20 list, because they did break musical ground with it. The American version had See Emily Play, instead of Astronomy Dominé. I had about half the albums in your list, years ago. (Someone burgled my album collection, some of which I’ve never been able to replace). I had Moby Grape’s second release, I’m thinking it was called Grape Jam. One reason there weren’t rereleases of the albums is, I believe, due to their manager claiming he owned the name of the band, and he was a stubborn cuss. Also, 2 members had schizophrenia (Skip Spence was 1, I forget who else), so they kind of fell apart.
Moby Grapes second album was Wow and Grape Jam was packaged together with it for one price. It could be bought separately, which I did. It was the first album I ever bought.
Anyone who would chose "Magical Mystery Tour" over "Sgt. Pepper" has very poor taste in music. "Sgt. Pepper" would hands down be my top choice for 1967. I remember well when it first came out and the enormous amount of positive publicity that it received at the time. And as Johnny Rivers sang in a line in his memorable hit "Summer Rain" from that same year, "Everybody kept on playing Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band". And how true that was!
Sgt Pepper is a landmark in music because of its advanced recording techniques, cultural relevance and big statement. By 1967 though there were other artists on the scene creating magic. I understand the stigma of Sgt Pepper, but there are better Beatle records in my opinion. Revolver & Rubber Soul being 2 examples. Those are pure perfection on every level.
But definitely not Magical Mystery Tour which was a very discordant non album put out by Capital Records. Sgt Pepper was the biggest selling album of the 60's and is one of the biggest selling ones of all time with approximately 30 million sales. For many years it also topped Rolling Stone magazine's list as the greatest album ever. + No album has ever been released that had more songs recognized by the public than Sgt. Pepper. Practically every song on the album is now regarded as a classic.
I picked up Procol Harum's debut album after reading where Jimi Hendrix really liked it. It is one of the great albums of any era. Not surprisingly for a British album it did not have the hit single, so 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' was not included. In its place was 'Homburg', which became the second single. Worth noting the BJ Wilson did not drum on 'A Whiter Shade...'. After penning the tune, Brooker & Reid need a band to perform it, and that lineup included David Knights (bs.), Matthew Fisher (org.), Bobby Harrison (dr.) and Ray Royer (gtr.). Harrison missed the session for 'A Whiter Shade...', so Bill Eyden, a jazzer from Georgie Fame's Blue Flames (Mitch Mitchell was in that band prior to joining Hendrix) did the session. Harrison wanted royalties, so was fired, with Royer also going. That is when Brooker brought in Wilson and Robin Trower from his previous band the Paramounts. And yes, great drumming. But also great guitar, most notably on 'Outside the Gates of Cerdes', which reveals Trower's great playing and killer tone (a 335 through a Marshall, though live - due to feedback concerns - he went with an SG and a Les Paul). In the UK 'Are You Experienced' and the first Small Faces album on Immediate also lacked the hit singles ('Here Come the Nice' might have been on the SF's album). That was the way in the UK - singles and albums were largely two separate things. Why? Bands were putting out three or four singles per year - 6 to 8 songs. That is pretty much an album. And there was concern that fans who had the singles didn't want to get the same songs on the album. True. That changed when the trend shifted from singles to albums, which really kicked in by '67. As for 'Fresh Cream' - yes, the stereo version with its hard 'right-left' panning is horrible...unless one wanted to learn a guitar solo or pick out vocal lines. The band's manager Robert Stigwood was producer...and should have hired Glyn Johns to both engineer and produce, as he did with the likes of Led Zeppelin's debut (though Page refused him the producer credit). There was also a mono version. And there were variations on track listings per market. Mine on Polydor (Germany) did not include 'I Feel Free' but did have debut single 'Wrapping Paper' and also 'The Coffee Song', penned by Tony Colton and Ray Smith of British band Heads, Hands & Feet, which also included hot shot guitarist Albert Lee (Eric Clapton, Emily Lou Harris, Everly Bros. etc.).
My 20 favorite 1967 albums (only in english and in alphabetical order) : - The Association - Insight Out - Baez, Joan - Joan - The Beach Boys - Smiley Smile - The Beatles - Sergeant Pepper's... - The Bee Gees - First - The Cyrkle - Neon - The Doors - (self-titled album) - Every Mother's Son - 's Back - The Four Seasons - New Gold Hits - Gore, Lesley - California Nights - The Happenings - Psycle - Lewis, Gary, & The Playboys - Listen - The Moody Blues - Days Of Future Passed - Pink Floyd - The Piper At The Gates Of Dawn - The Rolling Stones - Their Satanic Majestie's Request - The Sunshine Company - Happy Is - The Tokens - It's A Happening World - The Who - Sell Out - The Yellow Balloon - (self-titled album) - Velvet Underground - with Nico
That’s cool you listed The Cyrkle’s Neon. Great record hardly anyone ever mentions. Side 1 of that record is great with Don’t Cry No Fears Comin’ Your Way, The Visit, I Wish You Could Be Here, etc…
I thought this video of yours about the 20 favorite albums from 1967 was amazing... Would you know how to recommend a store with a good price that ships to Brazil?
I would try Amoeba Music. They have 3 locations in California that may do overseas shipping. They have the largest selection of LP’s, CD’s, 45’s, and genres of music to be found anywhere.
Mis disco Favorito de 1967 es el primero de The Doors, mi banda favorita detras de The Beatles. Tambien me gustan de ese año La versión británica de Hendrix Experience, el primero de Small Faces y el que nombraste de Jefferson Airplane. Y coincido contigo en que la canción Magical Mistery Tour es increible!!! Tengo muchos discos que nombrastes, Traffic, Kinks, Who, Cream ( su mejor disco para mi) y en cuanto a Beatles, ya empezó a ser la banda de Paul McCartney... y prefiero cuando Lennon era el lider. Otro discazo a mi entender, es Sus Majestades Satánicas de los Stones. Saludos desde Argentina! 🇦🇷❤🎼🎤🎸💪🇦🇷
The debut album of Cream has benn remastered for cd in 24 bit sound...As well as a box set containing loads of out takes..I have not heard it but ive reads good things about it!.However I do own The 2 Offical Live albums on cd .Those sound great!!
I meant to include Younger Than Yesterday, but forgot to pull it off the shelf when I was gathering albums for the video. Definitely a fave of 1967. Love every tune except Mind Gardens. Everybody’s Been Burned is my fave on that record.
I asked for a few albums for Christmas. Piper at the gates of dawn / Sgt. Pepper The WHO Sell Out / 1st Procol Harum Surrealist Pillow/ Are you experienced Santa delivered ...... P. S. ( it's pronounced RAY- AL- on Sell Out)
I think we have very similar tastes in good music. I'd quibble over placements, I was never a Nico fan, and the album's psychedelic tracks don't work as well in stereo. Kudos on the Emit Rhodes pick, whose Time Will Show the Wiser was the opening track on Fairport Convention's first LP, in 1968. It was a very good year ...
Top 5 STAX albums, 1967. 5) 'Wanted One Soul Singer'- Johnnie Taylor 4) 'Soul Finger'- The Bar-Kays 3) 'King and Queen'- Otis Redding and Carla Thomas 2) 'Soul Men'- Sam and Dave 1) 'Hip-Hugger'- Booker T and the MG's * All albums recorded with Booker T and the MG's, except 'Soul Finger'. That album was produced by Booker T and the MG's. San Francisco in 1967 was literally amateur hour compared to what Memphis was producing. London? You can have your 'Whiter Shade of Pale' and 'Strawberry Fields '. I'll take 'Soul Man', for the win, Alex.
One that would be close to the top of my list that I don't see talked about much is the 13th Floor Elevators 'Easter Everywhere'. So much great music that year.
Contrary to what you explained, the Moby Grape album has been made available on CD. It was first issued on the Sundazed label with bonus tracks. The proper reason it was deleted is that although they got the rights from Sony, the goup's former manager who they fell out with years earlier, threaten to sue Sundazed for copying his artwork without his permission, which is odd. But ALL of the tracks on it, including the bonus tracks are now on a double CD on Sony called THE VERY BEST OF MOBY GRAPE VINTAGE, although the last bonus track which lasted over five minutes, was split into two tracks here. But some of the tracks that were on the original album, appear here with studio chatter at the beginning. You can play all the tracks on sites like UA-cam or Deezer, but you have to print in the title of this compilation. Both sides of their debut single appear here in mono, and stereo. To try to prove all this, I have posted link of two tracks here with studio chatter at the beginnings. The rest of the tracks are from later years. ua-cam.com/video/kx_yr0BgdhY/v-deo.html ua-cam.com/video/XgqvjwZKfMU/v-deo.html They were actually quite big in the States, and appeared at the Monterey Pop Festival.
I have that double CD Best Of Moby Grape, but would like a remastered copy without the studio chatter even though from a historical point it’s cool. Maybe all the legality bullshit will resolve at some point and we’ll get a remastered version.
@@tomrobinson5776 I since discovered that the Sundazed CD itself was reissued on Sony with the same bonus tracks, but I think only as a download, but without any studio chatter at the beginnings. I played it on UA-cam and Deezer. Here is one of those same two. ua-cam.com/video/xoY2-Nuqagk/v-deo.html
1 Forever Changes - Art Lee's Love One of the best album ever. 2 Buffalo Springfield Again - Buffalo Springfield Mr Soul, Hung Upside Down, Expecting to Fly. 3 Velvet Underground - Banana album. 4 Are You Experienced - The Jimi Hendrix Experience. Revolutionary. Any other year it would be first. 5 The Doors - The Doors By far their best album. A great one. What a year. 6 Axis: Bold As Love - Jimi Hendrix Experience. Little Wing is fav. The Move join Jimi on You got me Floating. 7 The Who Sell Out - The Who This is their best album. I never am impressed with Concept Albums. They can be forced, coerced, compelled, constrained, and obligated to crap. Well not Ziggy Stardust, just generalizing. But I just like the songs on The Who Sell Out. 8 Mr. Fantasy - Traffic 9 Reach Out - 4 Tops 10. Days of Future Past Moody Blues. 10 Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake- Small Faces 10 Magical Mystery Tour - Beatles best song: I am the Walrus 10 Sgt. Peppers - Beatles Best song is A Day in the Life 10 Surrealistic Pillow Jeff Airplane 10 More than a new discovery - Laura Nyro 10 Disraeli Gears by Cream 10 Younger Than Yesterday - The Byrds. My Back Pages is spellbinding. 10 Groovin' - Young Rascals 10 Oogum Boogum- Brenton Wood 10 The Supremes Sing Holland-Dozier-Holland 10 Walk Away Renée/Pretty Ballerina - The Left Banke
@Capo Fetish Daydream Believer actually was released before this album but wasn't put on a album until the next album, birds and bees. Daydream Believer actually is censored. They changed how funky to how happy.
My fav 1967 albums... Velvet Underground Banana,... Jimi Hendrix Experience debut,... Captain Beefheart Safe As Milk,... Doors debut and Strange Days,... Country Joe & the Fish debut,... Moby Grape debut,... Clear Light Debut,... The Paupers Magic People...Grateful Dead debut, Jefferson Airplane After Bathing at Baxter's,... Silver apples debut, Hashash and the coloured Coat Featuring The Human Host and The Heavy Metal Kids debut... Zappa and Mothers Absolutely Free,... Beatles Magical Mystery Tour,... Cream Disreali Gears and Wheels of Fire,... The Fallen Angels debut,... The Rolling Stones Their Satanic Majesties Request... and last but not least, Pearls Before Swing One Nation Underground...it was a magical mystery year for music...by the way I just started my own channel about a month ago, I invite you to check it out...
I had the Hapshash album on red vinyl, it’s an interesting time-piece but their follow up ‘ The Western Flier’ is rather special. I recommend it if you can find it.
I have Western Flier on vinyl, I bought it back in the day when it was first released...I also have it on CD...I like T.S.McPee's guitar playing on that album.
Hapshash & the Coloured Coat were a concept, not a real band...On Western Flier were studio musicians with T.S.McPee on guitar, whereas on their debut, Spooky Tooth are the uncredited band...I prefer the debut, it is much more than an interesting time piece for me since I really like Spooky Tooth...I think the Debut is a brilliant work of music...
Magical Mystery Tour? Really?? Sometimes we have to try harder to put aside all the hype and listen to an album like Pepper, or Abbey Road, for what they were: a Pop Band at the Top of their game. Magical Mystery Tour falls into the cracks of the British habit of not putting 45s on albums. Thus, The White Album does not have Revolution 1 or Hey Jude. Toss those two tracks in (Kill Ringo's Goodnight and George and John's 'experiment' Revolution 9) and the White Album rises to the top of the heap. On the Flip side, the Beatles put out a string of 'singles albums: Oldies but Goodies; Yesterday & Today (Butcher Cover); Magical Mystery Tour and Hey Jude. Likeable records all. However, they lack the internality of the group in the studio trying to make a coherent set of songs. Which BTW... is amply displayed in the 'Hobbit' Get Back.
I’m with you regarding Good Night. Something unsettling about that tune. I understand the Pepper outrage, but in my opinion Magical Mystery Tour overall has better songs. Yes it’s not the big statement, but When I’m 64 and She’s Leaving Home have never appealed to me. Love Lucy In The Sky, Getting Better, Within You Without You, A Day In The Life, but compared to Revolver, Rubber Soul, it lacks the consistency of top tier Beatle songs throughout.
1967 was such a milestone year for music that I wanted to showcase a range of artists and albums rather than including various albums from the same artists.
Pink Floyd-Piper at the Gates of Dawn, Byrds-Younger The Yesterday, Moody Blues-Days of Future Past, Captain Beefhart-Safe as Milk, Beach Boys-Smiley Smile, Country Joe and the Fish-Electric Music for the Mind and Body, The Grateful Dead-1st album, The Doors-1st Album, Eric Burdon-Winds of Change, Donovan-A Gift from a Flower to a Garden, Canned Heat-1st album
Great list. I meant to put Younger Than Yesterday in there, but I guess it got lost in the shuffle. Great album. Love Safe As Milk as well…
As if the list on the video was not enough ... how fascinating that such a unique combination of times, culture and society made this generous, sophisticated and intelligent music to happen ... and yet when you listen to it, you have a feel it almost springs from nowhere.
Hands down, 1967 was the best year
in pop-music history. So much talent, creativity and innovation from old and, especially, new acts.
You said it 😉 A magical year for music.
I'm glad that you appreciate the 20 minute journey that side two of Strange Days is.
I appreciate what you said about Jimi Hendrix as a songwriter, those three Experience albums are so good, because they’re loaded with great songs!

The Moby Grape album has been released on CD by San Francisco Sound, Edsel and Sundazed. The Sundazed is a very nice release but it was deleted very soon because of copyright issues. I was lucky enough to get a copy and I love it. You know, in 1967 I was 13 and I had some surgery done and I felt very ill.

Love those albums still.

Selon moi aussi, l’année 1967 est la plus belle année dans la musique pop. De grands albums et de grands artistes. Très bonne liste.
I agree. It’s a seminal year for life changing music. 😉
Tu as tout dit ! A partir de minuit nous écoutions Radio Caroline (Bizarrement les ondes ne passaient que la nuit). A l'annonce de la sortie du nouvel LP de notre groupe préféré, notre cœur se mettait à battre la chamade. Quelle chance d'avoir eu quinze ans cette année là. 😍 🌈
Excellent choices. Thank you! 🙏
As you mentioned, you could have chosen 40 albums; I hope Eric Burdon & the Animals album “Winds of Change” (1967) is included. To me that album is mesmerizing. 🥰
I do have Winds Of Change. Haven’t listened to it in ages. I need to revisit that soon. 😉
Hi, great list, they are all great albums, i would add some of my favourite albums: the Byrds younger than yesterday, Country Joe and the fish -music for body and mind, Jefferson Airplane - After bathing at Baxter's, Tim Buckley - Goodbye and Hello
As far as yours are concerned, Forever changes is my favourite
.JA really explored new musical territory with After Bathing At Baxters
I'm from Brazil and I found your videos very cool.. congratulations
Thank you very much 😉
In my opinion as a young listener, I think that Country Joe and the fish's album Music for the Mind and Body is underated.
Nice channel, and subscribed. It's rare I find someone with such similar tastes in music as me, especially from someone who must be significantly younger than me.
Thanks for subscribing. 😉
Great compilation i also love beach boys wild honey and Cod Sweet by J. BROWN
I’ll have to pick up the Cold Sweat album. Love that cut as well as all of James Brown’s late 60’s singles. Thanks for watching 😉
Wow that's awesome records I have 1967 albums as well and also 1968 those are my favorite years for albums released.
Great work this. I still have 17 of these same albums in the original jackets. What a great year.....maybe the best. One I would have on the list is The Byrds’ “Younger Than Yesterday”. Thanhs
I meant to include Younger Than Yesterday as it’s a personal fave. Forgot to pull it off the shelf. 😉
Man, that was a good year for music! I like that you only put one album per band. I love Mystery Tour but I could not put it over Pepper. I probably would rank all these albums differently but I enjoy your perspective.
Thanks for watching 😉
Excellent list! Forever Changes is a true classic. Please be in touch I took some special photos of Arthur Lee at the Glastonbury Festival. The new LOVE played the whole album with horns and strings. It was amazing!
Sounds awesome 😉
Classic records all, love Strange Days, probably my favourite Doors album.
My birth year ' well done.
Thanks 😉
Great clip. Good choices....
Thanks 😉
Nice job. I have about half of your choices that I bought when they were first out!
Very cool, thanks for watching 😉
Terrific post. 1967 is probably over represented relative to other years in my collection. Incredible riches. I've been guilty of Procol Harum one hit fallacy.
My birth year! Terrific list; three favorites of mine from that year include Incredible String Band's 5000 Spirits, the Rascals ' Groovin' and (US) Kaleidoscope's Side Trips (RIP David Lindley).
Everything on this list I agree with. I would like to add a few soul albums to the list. Mostly Motown albums like the Four Gold's Reach Out, Temptations's With a Little Soul, Stevie Wonders I Was Made To Love Her and The Miracles's Make It Happen album.
's
Great list. Nice you mentioned MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR. Not known as an album here in Belgium but so glad you Americans released it as such. Sounds like a greatest hits album. Something Else by The Kinks is a true classic too. Probably their best? Such great tunes. STRANGE DAYS is vintage Doors. It is a real disgrace ROLLING STONE did not include it in its all time top 500. But then again, never mind R.S. : third division mag compared to say MOJO or UNCUT.
You said it! Rolling Stone is just a corporate magazine these days. Mojo and Uncut are the best. I have a subscription to Mojo. Thanks for watching 😉
Agree on those magazines - I love classic rock magazine too - record collector - the big takeover is a great US magazine but only comes out twice a year
I appreciate the explanation of why Magical Mystery Tour might not be considered to be a real album. Here in America, I just assumed it was released that way everywhere.
Great choices and agree with you about Moby Grape
As Thomas Roth has pointed out the Moby Grape album has been re-released on CD. The Sundazed release remastered the album and included extra tracks. Although deleted it can be picked up on discogs (at a price)!
Like your vibe, succinct reviews
Thanks 😉
Really good! Thank you
Thanks for watching. 😉
I own all those on vinyl except for Procol Harum and the MerryGoRound....all fantastic albums....I would include..'Absolutely Free' - Zappa and the Mothers, Safe as Milk - Captain Beefheart, Pipers at the Gates - The Floyd and A Hard Road - John Mayall
i agree "D.C.B.A.-25" is my favorite Jefferson Airplane song from Surrealistic Pillow - so symbolic of the Summer of Love.
Written and performed by Paul Kantner in his less militant days with JA.
Had a large vinyl collection that I eventually converted to CD. Kept buying CDs until my wife said - We're running out of room!!!! So I ripped them and put them on UA-cam. When everything was ripped, I took a look by year, and 1967 by far is the most common year in my collection following by 1966 and 1968.
Fantastic list! I too would rank Are You Experienced at Number 1. Hendrix the Great Musician has totally obscured Hendrix the Great Songwriter, so I'm glad that you emphasized that aspect of his genius. With Moby Grape, I'm a bit sorry that you didn't mention 8:05, the best heartbreak ballad of the 60s that never became a hit.
My mention of the Moby Grape song unintentionally became a timestamp... pointing to The Beatles, not Moby Grape. Oops!
8:05 is awesome. There’s not a bad moment on that record. It’s perfection. Thanks for watching. 😉
great choices - between the buttons is always a favourite
Thanks for watching 😉
The Monkees had 4 #1 albums in 1967. Something no one else has ever done.
Great choices, a flawless list. Has many of my favourites, too. The only albums I would add to this are 'Goodbye and Hello' by Tim Buckley and the 'Notorious Byrd Brothers' by the Byrds. So this would be my Top 22. Thank you for a great video! Greetings from Germany.
Thanks for watching 😉
Notorious Byrd brothers came out in January 1968- but I assume it was recorded in 1967 😂
@@KOSMICKEN09 thanks for this. I think I was wrong…
Nope too many clunkers
I agree with you about "Moby Grape"....Very entertaining
Good job. I would add: The Grateful Dead debut and The Hollies- Evolution.
We've got plenty in common on this one as it's hard to argue against most of the top choices, though Moby Grape and Procol Harum are bubbling under for me, and I have to include the psychedelic classics by Pink Floyd, Art (soon to be Spooky Tooth), 13th Floor Elevators. And Aretha.
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Are You Experienced?
The Velvet Underground - The Velvet Underground & Nico
Aretha Franklin - I Never Loved A Man The Way I Loved You
Love - Forever Changes
Pink Floyd - The Piper At the Gates Of Dawn
The Jimi Hendrix Experience - Axis: Bold As Love
The Beatles - Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band
Small Faces - There Are But Four Small Faces
The Beatles - The Magical Mystery Tour
The 13th Floor Elevators - Easter Everywhere
The Kinks - Something Else
Leonard Cohen - Songs Of Leonard Cohen
George Russell - Electronic Sonata For Souls Loved By Nature
Art - Supernatural Fairy Tales
The Doors - The Doors
Captain Beefheart & His Magic Band - Safe As Milk
The Doors - Strange Days

Basically,you've just pulled out my record collection.Thank you for giving credit to Steve Marriott.
Marriott rocks!
Thanks, very educational
You’re welcome. Thanks for watching. 😉
Pink Floyd 1st, Quicksilver Messenger Service 1st, Savoy Brown 1st, Steppenwolf 1st, Ten Year After 1st. The other 15 would be on the 20 list in this video and other non-rock LP's.
Moby Grape was reissued on Sundazed, but it was quickly recalled.
Eric Burdon "And the NEW Aminals=Winds Of Change!
Winds and Twain are gems, among the best albums of their time!
Top 5:
1. Odessey and Oracle - The Zombies
2. Days of Futures Passed - The Moody Blues
3. Forever Changes - Love
4. Strange Days - The Doors
5. Sgt. Peppers - The Beatles
First Spirit album ,West Coast Pop Art Experimental Band A Child’s Garden Of Good and Evil, 1st Quicksilver Messenger Service,Clear Light ,Carnival of Life Lee Michaels
Pink Floyd’s “Piper At The Gates Of Dawn” would be in my top 20 list, because they did break musical ground with it. The American version had See Emily Play, instead of Astronomy Dominé.
I had about half the albums in your list, years ago. (Someone burgled my album collection, some of which I’ve never been able to replace).
I had Moby Grape’s second release, I’m thinking it was called Grape Jam. One reason there weren’t rereleases of the albums is, I believe, due to their manager claiming he owned the name of the band, and he was a stubborn cuss. Also, 2 members had schizophrenia (Skip Spence was 1, I forget who else), so they kind of fell apart.
Never knew See Emily Play was on the US release. I’ll have to find that. Love that tune. I have it on the Relics album.
Moby Grapes second album was Wow and Grape Jam was packaged together with it for one price. It could be bought separately, which I did. It was the first album I ever bought.
Anyone who would chose "Magical Mystery Tour" over "Sgt. Pepper" has very poor taste in music. "Sgt. Pepper" would hands down be my top choice for 1967. I remember well when it first came out and the enormous amount of positive publicity that it received at the time.
And as Johnny Rivers sang in a line in his memorable hit "Summer Rain" from that same year, "Everybody kept on playing Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart's Club Band". And how true that was!
Sgt Pepper is a landmark in music because of its advanced recording techniques, cultural relevance and big statement. By 1967 though there were other artists on the scene creating magic. I understand the stigma of Sgt Pepper, but there are better Beatle records in my opinion. Revolver & Rubber Soul being 2 examples. Those are pure perfection on every level.
But definitely not Magical Mystery Tour which was a very discordant non album put out by Capital Records. Sgt Pepper was the biggest selling album of the 60's and is one of the biggest selling ones of all time with approximately 30 million sales. For many years it also topped Rolling Stone magazine's list as the greatest album ever.
+ No album has ever been released that had more songs recognized by the public than Sgt. Pepper. Practically every song on the album is now regarded as a classic.
Good choice for number 1
What a great batch of records. I have not heard the Tim Hardin album.
It’s an unsung gem. Thanks for watching. 😉
I picked up Procol Harum's debut album after reading where Jimi Hendrix really liked it. It is one of the great albums of any era. Not surprisingly for a British album it did not have the hit single, so 'A Whiter Shade of Pale' was not included. In its place was 'Homburg', which became the second single.
Worth noting the BJ Wilson did not drum on 'A Whiter Shade...'. After penning the tune, Brooker & Reid need a band to perform it, and that lineup included David Knights (bs.), Matthew Fisher (org.), Bobby Harrison (dr.) and Ray Royer (gtr.). Harrison missed the session for 'A Whiter Shade...', so Bill Eyden, a jazzer from Georgie Fame's Blue Flames (Mitch Mitchell was in that band prior to joining Hendrix) did the session. Harrison wanted royalties, so was fired, with Royer also going. That is when Brooker brought in Wilson and Robin Trower from his previous band the Paramounts. And yes, great drumming. But also great guitar, most notably on 'Outside the Gates of Cerdes', which reveals Trower's great playing and killer tone (a 335 through a Marshall, though live - due to feedback concerns - he went with an SG and a Les Paul).
In the UK 'Are You Experienced' and the first Small Faces album on Immediate also lacked the hit singles ('Here Come the Nice' might have been on the SF's album). That was the way in the UK - singles and albums were largely two separate things. Why? Bands were putting out three or four singles per year - 6 to 8 songs. That is pretty much an album. And there was concern that fans who had the singles didn't want to get the same songs on the album. True. That changed when the trend shifted from singles to albums, which really kicked in by '67.
As for 'Fresh Cream' - yes, the stereo version with its hard 'right-left' panning is horrible...unless one wanted to learn a guitar solo or pick out vocal lines. The band's manager Robert Stigwood was producer...and should have hired Glyn Johns to both engineer and produce, as he did with the likes of Led Zeppelin's debut (though Page refused him the producer credit). There was also a mono version. And there were variations on track listings per market. Mine on Polydor (Germany) did not include 'I Feel Free' but did have debut single 'Wrapping Paper' and also 'The Coffee Song', penned by Tony Colton and Ray Smith of British band Heads, Hands & Feet, which also included hot shot guitarist Albert Lee (Eric Clapton, Emily Lou Harris, Everly Bros. etc.).
Wrapping Paper is an odd debut, but have always thought it was a cool track.
typo on Swing, I meant to type Swine, Pearls Before Swine...
The Byrds, Younger Than Yesterday
Absolutely! I had it on the list, but got sidetracked and forgot to take it off the shelf. It would have been in the top ten easily..

That’s cool you listed The Cyrkle’s Neon. Great record hardly anyone ever mentions. Side 1 of that record is great with Don’t Cry No Fears Comin’ Your Way, The Visit, I Wish You Could Be Here, etc…
Yes The Cyrkle released three very good albums, even the soundtrack of "The Minx" !
Check out the Beau Brummels psychedelic classic "Triangle".
Thank you for the suggestion !
I thought this video of yours about the 20 favorite albums from 1967 was amazing... Would you know how to recommend a store with a good price that ships to Brazil?
I would try Amoeba Music. They have 3 locations in California that may do overseas shipping. They have the largest selection of LP’s, CD’s, 45’s, and genres of music to be found anywhere.
Mis disco Favorito de 1967 es el primero de The Doors, mi banda favorita detras de The Beatles. Tambien me gustan de ese año La versión británica de Hendrix Experience, el primero de Small Faces y el que nombraste de Jefferson Airplane. Y coincido contigo en que la canción Magical Mistery Tour es increible!!! Tengo muchos discos que nombrastes, Traffic, Kinks, Who, Cream ( su mejor disco para mi) y en cuanto a Beatles, ya empezó a ser la banda de Paul McCartney... y prefiero cuando Lennon era el lider. Otro discazo a mi entender, es Sus Majestades Satánicas de los Stones. Saludos desde Argentina! 🇦🇷❤🎼🎤🎸💪🇦🇷
Greetings! Thanks for watching 😉
To each his own.
Someone wasn’t aware of the brown acid.
The debut album of Cream has benn remastered for cd in 24 bit sound...As well as a box set containing loads of out takes..I have not heard it but ive reads good things about it!.However I do own The 2 Offical Live albums on cd .Those sound great!!
I’ll have to check out that remaster of Fresh Cream. Thanks for the tip. 😉
"Younger than yesterday" by the Byrds is in my top 5.......have you lost your own copy ?
I meant to include Younger Than Yesterday, but forgot to pull it off the shelf when I was gathering albums for the video. Definitely a fave of 1967. Love every tune except Mind Gardens. Everybody’s Been Burned is my fave on that record.
I asked for a few albums for Christmas.
Piper at the gates of dawn / Sgt. Pepper
The WHO Sell Out / 1st Procol Harum
Surrealist Pillow/ Are you experienced
Santa delivered ......
P. S. ( it's pronounced RAY- AL- on Sell Out)
I think we have very similar tastes in good music. I'd quibble over placements, I was never a Nico fan, and the album's psychedelic tracks don't work as well in stereo. Kudos on the Emit Rhodes pick, whose Time Will Show the Wiser was the opening track on Fairport Convention's first LP, in 1968. It was a very good year ...
A good year indeed. 😉
What happened to SGT. PEPPER?
Im guessing it did not make his top 20 mate.
Keep up.
Broke new ground in the world of modern music!
Must be the area I'm from but never heard of some of them
Nice list. If you do one for 1968, be sure to include Duncan Browne's Give Me Take You.
I’ll have to check that record out. Never heard it. Thanks for the reference. 😉
Top 5 STAX albums, 1967.
5) 'Wanted One Soul Singer'- Johnnie Taylor
4) 'Soul Finger'- The Bar-Kays
3) 'King and Queen'- Otis Redding and Carla Thomas
2) 'Soul Men'- Sam and Dave
1) 'Hip-Hugger'- Booker T and the MG's
* All albums recorded with Booker T and the MG's, except 'Soul Finger'. That album was produced by Booker T and the MG's.
San Francisco in 1967 was literally amateur hour compared to what Memphis was producing.
London? You can have your 'Whiter Shade of Pale' and 'Strawberry Fields '.
I'll take 'Soul Man', for the win, Alex.
I have the 9 disc Complete Stax Singles Box Set from 1959-1968 and indeed it is phenomenal!
@@tomrobinson5776 What you need is the second box, 1968-1972. It blows the first one out of the water. I promise.
One that would be close to the top of my list that I don't see talked about much is the 13th Floor Elevators 'Easter Everywhere'. So much great music that year.
Nope
Check Laura Nyro's album : Eli & the Thirteenth Confession.
Great album! I’d put Eli in my favorites of 1968. 😉
@@tomrobinson5776 Oh... Thought it was a 67 album.
67 must be her debut.
Side 2 of "Magical Mystery Tour" were SINGLES.
Moby Grape let is on cd on old time records japan sound is superb
I’ll have to find that version. Thanks
Contrary to what you explained, the Moby Grape album has been made available on CD. It was first issued on the Sundazed label with bonus tracks. The proper reason it was deleted is that although they got the rights from Sony, the goup's former manager who they fell out with years earlier, threaten to sue Sundazed for copying his artwork without his permission, which is odd.
But ALL of the tracks on it, including the bonus tracks are now on a double CD on Sony called THE VERY BEST OF MOBY GRAPE VINTAGE, although the last bonus track which lasted over five minutes, was split into two tracks here. But some of the tracks that were on the original album, appear here with studio chatter at the beginning. You can play all the tracks on sites like UA-cam or Deezer, but you have to print in the title of this compilation. Both sides of their debut single appear here in mono, and stereo. To try to prove all this, I have posted link of two tracks here with studio chatter at the beginnings. The rest of the tracks are from later years.
ua-cam.com/video/kx_yr0BgdhY/v-deo.html
ua-cam.com/video/XgqvjwZKfMU/v-deo.html
They were actually quite big in the States, and appeared at the Monterey Pop Festival.
I have that double CD Best Of Moby Grape, but would like a remastered copy without the studio chatter even though from a historical point it’s cool. Maybe all the legality bullshit will resolve at some point and we’ll get a remastered version.
@@tomrobinson5776 I since discovered that the Sundazed CD itself was reissued on Sony with the same bonus tracks, but I think only as a download, but without any studio chatter at the beginnings. I played it on UA-cam and Deezer. Here is one of those same two.
ua-cam.com/video/xoY2-Nuqagk/v-deo.html
1 Forever Changes - Art Lee's Love One of the best album ever.
2 Buffalo Springfield Again - Buffalo Springfield Mr Soul, Hung Upside Down, Expecting to Fly.
3 Velvet Underground - Banana album.
4 Are You Experienced - The Jimi Hendrix Experience. Revolutionary. Any other year it would be first.
5 The Doors - The Doors By far their best album. A great one. What a year.
6 Axis: Bold As Love - Jimi Hendrix Experience. Little Wing is fav. The Move join Jimi on You got me Floating.
7 The Who Sell Out - The Who This is their best album. I never am impressed with Concept Albums. They can be forced, coerced, compelled, constrained, and obligated to crap. Well not Ziggy Stardust, just generalizing. But I just like the songs on The Who Sell Out.
8 Mr. Fantasy - Traffic
9 Reach Out - 4 Tops
10. Days of Future Past Moody Blues.
10 Ogdens' Nut Gone Flake- Small Faces
10 Magical Mystery Tour - Beatles best song: I am the Walrus
10 Sgt. Peppers - Beatles Best song is A Day in the Life
10 Surrealistic Pillow Jeff Airplane
10 More than a new discovery - Laura Nyro
10 Disraeli Gears by Cream
10 Younger Than Yesterday - The Byrds. My Back Pages is spellbinding.
10 Groovin' - Young Rascals
10 Oogum Boogum- Brenton Wood
10 The Supremes Sing Holland-Dozier-Holland
10 Walk Away Renée/Pretty Ballerina - The Left Banke
The Monkees were the biggest selling artists of 1967. A few years later you would have to look long and hard to find a Monkee album.
I think Pisces Aquarius Capricorn Jones has some great material. Love is only sleeping, Pleasant Valley Sunday, Words, The Door Into Summer….
@Capo Fetish Daydream Believer actually was released before this album but wasn't put on a album until the next album, birds and bees. Daydream Believer actually is censored. They changed how funky to how happy.
Country Joe and the fish
1st and 2nd

The Rolling Stones Their Satanic Majesties Request... and last but not least, Pearls Before Swing One Nation Underground...it was a magical mystery year for music...by the way I just started my own channel about a month ago, I invite you to check it out...
Great list. I’ll check out your channel. Thanks for watching 😉
@@tomrobinson5776 hi, thanks for the positive comment.
I had the Hapshash album on red vinyl, it’s an interesting time-piece but their follow up ‘ The Western Flier’ is rather special. I recommend it if you can find it.
I have Western Flier on vinyl, I bought it back in the day when it was first released...I also have it on CD...I like T.S.McPee's guitar playing on that album.
Hapshash & the Coloured Coat were a concept, not a real band...On Western Flier were studio musicians with T.S.McPee on guitar, whereas on their debut, Spooky Tooth are the uncredited band...I prefer the debut, it is much more than an interesting time piece for me since I really like Spooky Tooth...I think the Debut is a brilliant work of music...
Moody Blues: Days of Future Past
Tim Hardin's first several LPs are terrific. Great writer -- shock to read about who he was in reality.
Younger Than Yesterday?
I meant to include it along with the first Left Banke record, but got sidetracked while pulling albums off the shelf. Realized it after the fact…
I would have chose Dark Side Of The Moon.
But Dark Side wasnt released in 1967.
Magical Mystery Tour? Really?? Sometimes we have to try harder to put aside all the hype and listen to an album like Pepper, or Abbey Road, for what they were: a Pop Band at the Top of their game. Magical Mystery Tour falls into the cracks of the British habit of not putting 45s on albums. Thus, The White Album does not have Revolution 1 or Hey Jude. Toss those two tracks in (Kill Ringo's Goodnight and George and John's 'experiment' Revolution 9) and the White Album rises to the top of the heap. On the Flip side, the Beatles put out a string of 'singles albums: Oldies but Goodies; Yesterday & Today (Butcher Cover); Magical Mystery Tour and Hey Jude. Likeable records all. However, they lack the internality of the group in the studio trying to make a coherent set of songs. Which BTW... is amply displayed in the 'Hobbit' Get Back.
....they lack the INTENTIONALITY of the group in the studio....
I’m with you regarding Good Night. Something unsettling about that tune. I understand the Pepper outrage, but in my opinion Magical Mystery Tour overall has better songs. Yes it’s not the big statement, but When I’m 64 and She’s Leaving Home have never appealed to me. Love Lucy In The Sky, Getting Better, Within You Without You, A Day In The Life, but compared to Revolver, Rubber Soul, it lacks the consistency of top tier Beatle songs throughout.
No love for Roky Erickson and 13th floor elevators?
I have the debut and Easter Everywhere. There’s love, but there’s others from that period that I like better.
@@tomrobinson5776 saw Roky playing live a year before he passed.
@@jmd76family That’s cool. Really unique artist.
WHY DO SO MANY OF YOU UA-camRS ARBITRARILY LIMIT YOURSELF TO 1 ALBUM PER BAND? Why?
1967 was such a milestone year for music that I wanted to showcase a range of artists and albums rather than including various albums from the same artists.
Nope Too many 1 hit wonders and unheard!!! And Doors first album was best even though Strang Days was good and Aretha Franklin Sucked Big Time
I prefer 1966 but watching the video, one great l.p. after another.
