Here's what Paul McCartney says about the psychedelic era. I quote him from the film "The Making of Sgt. Pepper". This quote is from 25 years after the record was released, so in retrospect but not current.


' The psychedelic era was coming in. And we were very much part of that. I I really think we felt that it could be done better from a record than from anything else. The record could go on tour, was the theory."

peace

There were signs on "Electric Ladyland" he was going in new directions, but it's a worthy question.
Quite a few poster children of the Peace'n'Love movement died when the Age of Aquarius dialed in:
Joplin, Jones, Hendrix, Wilson, Morrison; while others hung it up: The Beatles, Simon&Garfunkel,
Jefferson Airplane. By '72, many acts simply moved on.

It's interesting that a fad that lasted long and revered by some to this day didn't have NEAR the shelf
life some fads have had, namely rap, and the manufactured groups of today.

Hendrix was blues, soul, electric jazz, modernistic, black, hints of pre Brooklyn rap, Northern folk, and his personality expressed partly through melodies that sound native American and something otherworldly.

Hendrix was not a hippy. Hendrix was not Psychedelic.

I suggest going back to listen to the first 3 albums. Don't tell me that 1983 A Merman I May Turn To Be...Moon Turn The Tides Slowly Slowly Away, Third Stone From The Sun, Little Wing, Bold As Love and a lot of the music he recorded between 67 and 68 is not psychedelic.

Yeah but Third stone, Little Wing and Bold are really more blues, ballad and pop with an experimental touch.

Third Stone From The Sun is psych!

It's not like psych is a totally different language. It draws on different genres etc, but it's mostly down to the twists, delivery and production etc. An LSD infused take on something that is otherwise usually seen as normal.

Btw, The Hendrix nabbed the theme from Coronation Street for TSFTS. grinning smiley

Yeah HM I think I get it now. OK Psychedelic is the filter. TSFTS is the best thing I've heard.

Yeah - but what an experimental touch. Always worked for me back in the day. Heh heh!

I hear the resemblance! but is it true that he wrote it with that tune in mind?

... and how about Burning of the Midnight Lamp then -- taken from anything? I tend to think of those songs as a pair.
