#NowPlaying Blue Cheer's 'Vincebus Eruptum' from 1968. Thanks to @wendigo for tipping me off to this. I think I'd heard a cover of Summertime Blues but never this whole record. It's rad as FUCK. Like a more psych Sonics or almost Kinks, with some great, extreme fuzz too- bluesy psych rock or "acid rock". Mudhoney definitely took a cue or two from these guys, too. A KILLER listen.

The cover of Blue Cheer's 1968 record 'Vincebus Eruptum'. It's a light purple kind of psychedelic look, with the band's logo around a group photo, all in a purple tint.

Thought of one for @Kitty's #TuneTuesday theme this week, #SongBaton - one song that goes into another.

These are next to each other on the album. When radio plays them, they ALWAYS play them both, they go together so well.

Zep - Heartbreaker into Living Loving Maid. Vinyl pops, crackles and all! The TOO HOT version with too much bass!

I read the other day that Jim Morrison was a big fan of the Beach Boys album Wild Honey, and despite me not being a Doors fan, I gotta agree with him.

The Beach Boys were the first band I was really into as a kid- the Beatles right around the same time, but afterwards. When I was really young, my parents would play both bands pretty often.

Everyone of course knows the Beach Boys' big beach related hits, but Wild Honey is an overlooked masterpiece from 1967. It doesn't have any of the big hits (and no beach related songs), but Darlin' might be my favorite BB song. The whole record is incredible. The BASSLINES on it, too. 🤯

The cover to the 1967 masterpiece 'Wild Honey' by the Beach Boys. It's flowers and bees that look like stained glass almost, really cool art. Wild Honey is at the top in white almost block/bubble letters, 'The Beach Boys' underneath that in red-orange.

Today (March 1) in 1944, someone who would become one of the greatest damn singers of ALL TIME -- Roger Daltrey of The Who -- was born.

That of course means you gotta blast The Who LOUD today.
