The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators
In 1966, the 13th Floor Elevators released The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators. The first album to put the word psychedelic on its cover and one of the few that actually earned it.
The Notorious Byrd Brothers
In 1968, The Byrds released The Notorious Byrd Brothers. A record where harmony, paranoia and studio experimentation folded into something weightless.

In 1968, Cheap Thrills arrived like a dare. Loud, loose and confrontational, with Janis Joplin pushing against the limits of what rock singing was supposed to be.
Band of Gypsys
In 1970, Jimi Hendrix released 'Band of Gypsys.' A live album that reframed him not as a psychedelic icon, but as a radical funk innovator.
Live/Dead
In 1969, the Grateful Dead released 'Live/Dead'. A psychedelic document of improvisation, electricity and communion. It wasn’t just their first live album; it was their first truly great one.
