Sorry UK only
Pure late 60s UK psychedelic sound with early prog moves, plenty of Hammond and fuzzed out guitar, powerful vocals…Including such lost gems as the Barrett-Floyd sounding ‘The World Whistles By’, killer psych-rockers like ‘Pandemonium Shadow Show’ or ‘Doris The Piper’, the mellotron fuelled ‘October Country’ and more!
Mandrake Paddle Steamer's 'Pandemonium shadow Show' - a forgotten gem from the late sixties.
A delicious cocktail of early prog rock with a dash of psychodelia that's sounds like Caravan crashing into Uriah Heep
with a touch of the Crazy World of Arthur Brown thrown in for good measure !
