I was finally unable to keep up the monthly schedule earlier this year, with my August post not coming out until after Halloween.
CRYSTAL MANSION, a white R&B/funk/psychedelic band who released three self-titled albums over a 10-year period.
THE HUMAN ZOO, a fine psychedelic rock band with a lot of connections to the legendary band called the Human Expression.
Wow, five years – now that’s something to celebrate. Most satisfying no doubt was being able to write about the courageous Pussy Riot.
NICK FREUND, a Catholic priest who worked with four of his students in a band called THE SEARCH PARTY and also created remarkable choral music.
THE HOLY GHOST RECEPTION COMMITTEE #9, a group of New York high school students who put together two psychedelic rock albums.
BLAIR 1523, a psychedelic rock band from a village in Cornwall who had broken up before their album came out.
MUSIC EMPORIUM, a delightful psychedelic band (half men/half women) that features three classically trained musicians plus a dynamite guitarist.
THE SKYWALKERS I have been thinking that the Garage Rock Revival of the early 2000’s is the British Invasion of the 21st Century.
Coolest thing I did in 2012? No question: I was there with my wife Peggy at the concert by the Flaming Lips poolside at the Hard Rock Casino in Biloxi.
