Sounds very cool... Especially the Cippolina guitar lead sound...

I just realized I have a tune by the Jacks on a Love, Peace and Poetry compilation (Marianne)... To be honest I don't remember it being all that memorable... Let me go give it a fresh listening...

There are two contemporary bands that I think have everything: The Cosmic Gardeners from Germany (achingly melancholic old-school psychedelic folk) and the Suicidal Flowers from England (Delerium Records).

From the old days I would say The Doors with their track 'The Crystal Ship', Pink Floyd and their vividly haunting and probably the most psychedelic track EVER 'Julia Dream' and Hawkwind (their first 4 albums) especially the track 'Time We Left This World Today'.

I would have to go with Arzachel... just brilliant!

ummmmm GONG

also David Bowie's psy. stuff is underated in my opion (not grouped with floyd etc)
like man of words, man of music (space o.)
+ Man Who Sold the World (very nice psy production)

Les Rallizes Denudes
Bee Gees (people seem to know them for their later Disco stuff!)
Sam Gopal (LEMMYYYYYYYYY!)
The Chocolate Watch Band
The Moody Blues (though they turned rubbish later on)

Here's three for starters all from the UK.....
Kaleidoscope/Fairfield Parlour
Idle Race
Mike Stuart Span/Leviathan :-)

Yeah, funny how the main man gave up Psych for Prog because he grew sick of the toytown type of music he kept playing, then made it big with ELO with 'Mr Blue Sky', arguably a song with a hell of a lot of the old Psych sensibilities that he'd supposedly abandoned!

'Imposters Of Life's Magazine' though... WOW!

Indeed, this is a much underated band.

Their music is indeed a bit toytown, even carnavalesque or silly if you will.
But they do have some amazibng tunes like "Lucky Man" or "On with the Show".

They sound almost too English, like the first album by "The Blossom Toes"
