Churchill's - Churchill's 1968 (Israeli Psych)
Very RARE psych album from Israel, lots o ffuzz, exotic instrumentation, and trippy effects float through this album.
My Indole Ring 1966-69 (Vancouver Psych)
This is a nice psychedelic band from Vancouver, who regularly played at the Retinal Circus with the Dead back in the 60's. They never released an album, but they did write some trippy songs definitely worth checking out.

The Psychedelic Experience 1965 *RARE*
Good Night Everyone! Before I sign off for the night I just wanted everyone to watch this nice dreamy movie that Timothy Leary had his little lysergic hands in.
Travel Agency - Travel Agency (San Francisco 1967) & Shanti - Shanti 1971
Travel Agency is a San Francisco psych band that has it all, trippy lyrics, good song writing, fuzz, catchy riffs (Cadillac George), songs of protest (Whats a Man) , and did i already say fuzz?
Shanti, is like Travel Agency but with a more Grateful Dead, Eastern vibe. Easily up on the top as my most listened to albums. Some of the members of Travel Agency went on to play in the band Shanti.

The Orkustra - The Orkustra 1967 (unreleased recording)
The best way I can describe this is imagine a full orchestra getting dosed.
"Here is what we would name some of the best, most important, unreleased at the time, historical and lost west coast psychedelic recordings ever. "
Country Joe and the Fish - Electric Music for the Mind and Body 1967
Here is one of my all time favorites. If you haven't heard this album yet and you "want a taste of San Francisco in the 60's - This is the album"
