You know where that sample is from? Always been curious myself.

listening to psychedelic rock on psychedelics is the highest level of music consumption

ALRIGHT SO
this is my fav psychedelic rock pop obscure gem baby that you’ve never heard of

💕🏝🎸🎻🎺🎷🥁🧘‍♂️🍄 🌺🍀🌞

the smoke is a project from 1968 by michael lloyd who was only 19, he wrote all the songs, sings, does the keys, guitar, bass, horn and strings arrangements! yes all of that by himself, a teenager still

the smoke is extremely inspired by the beach boys, michael who happened to know bruce johnston got invited by bruce during the good vibrations recording session which surely left an impression

I met Bruce Johnston and he took me to a couple of sessions while Brian was recording Good Vibrations, it was a great experience.

this inspiration is easily heard on my favorite “self a***ysis”

clearly, the jumpy organ a la “good vibrations” and that unique bass melodic signature style that screams brian wilson ofc

but even more on the nose on the songs “cowboys and indians” which echoes the bbs “heroes & villains”

imo this is the masterpiece of that era you’ll never find on any of those popular list, get on it 🤗

whole album is on yt

the kid went on to make big moves in the industry business behind doors later on on but this stays as his favorite most proud piece and he’s very honored that its picking up some traffic

Everytime I listen to a psych album I hope it sounds like this and it just ends up sounding like every other crusty white guy tripping balls with a guitar
