Psychedelic Experience
CD (Item 475117) Folkways, 1966 -- Condition: New Copy
A wonderful early bit of psychedelia from an academic perspective -- a record that features Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner, and Richard Alpert -- all reading from the book The Psychedelic Experience A Manual Based On The Tibetan Book Of The Dead! The album's divided up into two sections -- "Going Out" and "Coming Back" -- and there's a nice "scientific" feel to some of the work, especially striking given the early date! Vocals are recorded in a stark sort of way -- almost dream-like at times -- and there's a bit of Tibetan bells which further adds to this quality of the record. (Special limited CD -- pressed up for us by the Smithsonian Folkways label. Comes with original cover artwork, and the CD also features a PDF file with the original liner notes and other materials from the original record release.) © 1996-2009, Dusty Groove America, Inc. | ||||||
