Paul's station is such a treasure!
Watching CCR at Woodstock is one of the trippiest experiences in psych music history, its mesmerizing
CCR and Grateful deads performances weren't in the woodstock movie. Mainly because I think both performances where during a rain storm and neither band was happy with their respective performances.
CCR’s Looking Out My Back Door sounds like simple rock ‘ roll but the lyrics seem to be describing an Acid Trip.
Talk about a deep dive...this episode reminds me just how great the music was in the late 60's & early 70's, especially in regards to experimentation and defying labels. Songwriting was in depth and there were so many layers. Some of the bands you touched upon were my favorites, like CCR "Born On The Bayou," Audience "House On The Hill," Traffic "Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys," Spirit "Nature's Way." Some I've never heard of and will be looking into.
Joe Walsh wrote some great songs back then like "Tomorrow," "Indian Summer" and "Tend My Garden." And it's so true that you can hear the psychedelic influence in bands not labeled as such as you pointed out. One of my favorite psychedelic tunes is "Pandora's Golden Herbie Jeebies" by the Association.
One band that was obviously psychedelic, Iron Buttery, of course had arguably THE psychedelic anthem of the times with "InAGaddaDaVida" but I played their follow-up album called "Ball" constantly and 2 songs on that album are personal favorites, those being "Soul Experience" and "In The Crowds."
Love this era so much. Thank you for a great discussion and sharing some groups that I missed!
Does anyone else agree with me that Family's "See Through Windows" is one the greatest psychedelic tracks ever? Great riff, real tripped out powerhouse of a track with excellent production for the time.Nice to see them mentioned, cheers!
Yes, another mind-blowing tune!
I'll definitely have to check his site out.
We saw Spencer Davis Group with Steve Winwood. Family were superb. Spirit an all-time favourite band, 2nd album framed on my wall! A fascinating chat guys.
Thanks Bob!
Born in 58, I was just old enough to enjoy the birth and remaining years of the best era in music history (IMO) and really enjoyed this installment.
Great to hear!
John Barleycorn Must Die is a favorite of mine.
Moby Grape, Peanut Butter Conspiracy, Country Joe & The Fish, The United States of America
I bought a Spirit 45 “1984”. Great song & it got a lot of radio play in Duluth, MN
Fascinating stuff! Good work Matt!
This is amazing! I thought TWoS had gone off the air years ago?? It was SO important to fostering my love of psych in the early 2000s. I played it all day and in my house, and now I will again!
Excellent!
I am so glad I found you channel, I think the biggest difference with yours is just the such in depth coverage. The web of sound somehow I thought disappeared but I added the bookmark again! 2006 or so I thought it was gone due to some kind of backlash of ''hey you can't play me tune legal trips''. 57 now and recall ''eight miles high'' and anything by Traffic when I was 14 or 15 blowing my mind. Long 20+ years clean i still enjoy this magic feeling the music creates. Matt great job on this psych bands, psych tinged bands.
Thank you Steve!
Disappeared in 2011 and reignited in 2021!
@@pmoews Thank you, I booked marked it again and just love this channel.
This was great, Matt. So nice to see Paul, and learn that his station/website is still around. I want to say I remember it disappearing for a while (?) and from what I remember, Paul said it had to do with funding…. But I loved the extensive catalog and bios, and I’d make lists of songs that I asked Paul to burn to cd for me. Well worth the donations! Thanks for a great interview. And interesting to learn you guys are friends. Very cool.
Thanks, Jilly! So many bands to talk about!
Hi Jill - I remember the CDs! Glad you still enjoy and TWOS is back and better than ever. Matt and I go back to the college days and still hang out and talk regularly. Don't be a stranger!
What a awesome video have a wonderful weekend Matt and tomorrow is my friends birthday ❤❤❤❤❤❤😊😊😊😊😊😊
OMG Yer Album is a masterpiece!!! Yeah I’m a hardcore Joe Walsh fan too.
Another band probably not considered Psychedelic is the Guess Who. I listened to Wheatfield Soul a couple days ago and I’d forgotten how psychedelic Friends of Mine was.
I wasn't a fan of it. I like James gang. But I thought it was more instrumental. I do like their version of blue bird however.
Sometime in late '67 I heard the radio advertisement for Traffic's first album. The New York radio station, WNEW FM, played the commercial which included a couple of short excerpts from the album. The moment I heard the clip of Mr. Fantasy, I rushed to the record store and bought the album. I then went to a friend's house and he heard the same radio commercial and he also bought the album right away. There's was no denying that the music created by Traffic was exceptional and I've always held the Mr. Fantasy album with the same high regard as Sgt. Pepper.
WNEW was a great radio station in 1967. WABC FM too.
@@markbrooks7157 Back then you could turn on the radio and know that for the next few hours your head would be taken care of! Those were the days! WBAI was good too! Have a good day my friend!
@@geneobrien8907 yep. I used to go to WBAI for concerts all the time. I gave on air performances there too. I also got turned on to a lot of avant garde music and free jazz through WKCR. I grew up in Rockland County. You?
There was a kids tv programme called Magpie and Traffic did their theme tune.
@@markbrooks7157 I grew up in Brooklyn, until age 16, we then moved to Madison, NJ, where I spent the counterculture years. We moved to Poughkeepsie for a couple of years, then, North Babylon, LI. In '79, I moved to Florida, got married, moved to Denver for a year, studying music at the Naropa Institute in Boulder and finally, back to Florida.
Let's not forget The Move. They did Sunshine Help Me also
THE ALL SAVED FREAK BAND were cool too.but they were from 1973 to 1980,they released 4 albums
1968 Summertime Blues -BLUE CHEER
Greetings Matt,Greetings Paul, -My only gripe about this video is the conversation (at about 22 minutes) was to short, but I want to take the opportunity to to thank Paul for the music he has on his station Technicolor Web Of Sound-I Love it👍 Now that regular radio AM/FM is pretty much dead, Me as a listener I need to go on the internet to find good music stations or pay a subscrition for satelite radio, which for example I was listening to SXM and I was thinking that something is lacking on Sirius and I just realized that it needs a good Psychedelic channel. -Technicolor Web Of Sound is second to none as the greatest Psychedelic music Channel👍 -really cool you guy's brought up the James Gang , My favorite song from them is Stop, love that song.
Thank you, Ernie! Paul's station is a one of a kind!
Thanks much Ernie...I was just telling Matt that I think it was too short as well! 😎👍
@@pmoews part 3 😁 👍👌
One of my favorites is the Marmalade
Matt, Now you have me thinking of lighting up some weed - but those days are passed. When I saw another psychedelic episode, and then the first albums by CCR, Family, and Traffic on display, I was ever so pleased. I bought the Traffic when it came it out, expecting to hear where Winwood was going after the Spencer Davis Group, and was thoroughly surprised. Not to mention confused as the American cover had only 3 members pictured when I had seen that there were supposed to be four. The first two Traffic, and side one of "Last Exit," are truly psychedelic, but after that I thought that Traffic's muse was guided by the Band's first two albums. I never thought of CCR as psychedelic, but I really enjoyed that first, underrated, album. I saw Family at Hyde Park as an opening act for the Stones, and they blew the other bands away, although an unrecorded band, King Crimson, put on a great show too. The James Gang were brilliant, too, but you did not mention that Pete Townsend loved Joe Walsh's playing above other guitar players. I bought Spirit's first album the day that I bought the first CCR album. Their albums stood out from the crowd, but the lack of sales fractured the group into its various influences. I can't say that I am a fan of Frumious Bandersnatch (only first available in the 90's) nor Audience. It's not that I dislike them, it's just that there is so much music and so little time. But always time to appreciate your presentations, particularly with Paul.
Thanks Wylie! More to come.
Thanks Wylie! 😎👍
Could you do a dedication of Richard Tandy of Electric Light Orchestra, keyboardists, passed away a couple days ago. Without him, the sound of the Move and ELO would not be there.
Richard Randy was Jeff Lynne's right arm. I love early ELO.
Thank you for reporting this - I hadn’t heard about it.
@@user-iy5rk2nq8g Tandy
I really like Yer Album. I find it as good as the much better known follow-up. I think the cover of Bluebird is wonderful. Dream Within A Dream is probably my favorite cut from Family.
Family with Chapo is considered a Prog band by fans of the genre
There's a Techno genre called Trance from the 90s that's still popular. When I was a kid I had my own trance music, it was flowing intense acid rock. 3 of those type of songs were from CCR they were I Put A Spell On You, Heard It Through The Grapevine & Suzy Q. Put any of those songs on and I would zone out. And now thanks to this video I now know there's a part 2 to Suzy Q AND first I heard of Technicolor Web, my kind of radio! Thanks!
Now scuze me while I slap on some headphones and kiss da sky.
Edit: did some simple research and saw there wasn't really a part 2 to Suzy Q. It was actually the 8 minute long LP song split into 2 parts for the 7" single, part 1 on side A and 2 on side B.
Duh! Anyhoo, still learned about that web station.
Thanks for this Interesting focus on what was a transitional period from immediate post-psychedelia to what you might call proto-prog or proto-heavy, roughly '68-71. A lot of interesting bands, (some of whom you mention) didn't make it through said period but the ones that did often ended up stadium huge. Not a fan of this stuff per se, but there are some great albums that don't get much retrospective praise; Family's "Music In The Dollhouse"(2nd side is breathtakingly inventive),The Soft Machine's first album (manically unique), Spirit's "12 Dreams of Dr Sardonicus"( sublime and influential) and maybe The Nice's "Thoughts of Emerlist Davjack" (wildly eccentric).
Yes, so many bands that really took psychedelia to another level. I appreciate the comments!
Audiences big song was called house on the hill. Released in 1971. I believe they had 3 albums.
A shorter, better version imo is on their first LP.
I didn't know there was a shorter version. I've heard parts of their first album on Amazon music. The only one I own is the house on the hill. Wncx here in Cleveland used to play house on the hill all the time along with Indian summer back in 1995 when the Indians won the pennant that year. I know audience had another album after that but I've never listened to it or I've heard parts of it. The lead singer had a distinct voice. Perfect for a song like house on the hill. Very haunting.
Correction. Audience had 4 albums.
@@pmoews I like the longer one better. But that's just me.
Never considered CCR as psychedelic, but 'Ramble Tamble' is a classic. How would they fare using the 'psychedelic formula' you proposed for the Beatles some time ago?
They would probably score on the lower end of the scale but they would score nonetheless.
True. But I just cannot associate psychedelic with lumberjack shirts!
Hi Matt, would you possibly fancy doing a video together comparing the stereo version to the mono version of Jefferson Airplane's "After Bathing At Baxter's"? I think it'd be fun to give a little history of the album, some childhood memories listening to it, etc. Let me know if this is something you'd be interested in! Hope you're having a good weekend. -Sam
Is there a way to play his station through my Cambridge streamer to my stereo? Thanks.
My music system and its computer and HDs are my psychedelic 'station'. Just saying. No internet, no streaming, no ads, just the stuff I want to listen to. Just sayin'.
Hard to view TouTube without internet. Just sayin.’
The only ads on Technicolor Web of Sound are authentic 60s Radio commercials...I pay extra for it to be ad free...just sayin'
Dang! Not available to stream in Australia…:-(

Well looks like my comment about the damnation of adam blessing was taken down. Probably because I left a link to one of their videos. Again to reiterate if u didn't see the comment. They were from cleveland. Had 4 albums. They went by damnation and glory as well. Their big song was called "take me back to the river". They recorded for united artists. One of their members, Ray Benich served 18 years in prison for killing an off duty police officer whom he caught in bed with his wife with what was called a crime of passion, in the 1980s. He got out and now performs christian music.Check them out if u never heard of them. I won't leave a link this time. I'm not trying to promote anything. Just a band u should check out if u never heard of them.
