^ Aha! Thank you for answering my question with so many leads and an insight into Bulgarian psychedelia. I wonder if the two compilation albums are
ex libris rostasi ? I enjoyed the two audio clips, and noticed that both are quite unadorned: none of the weird instruments or whoosing electronic effects that many bands west of Bulgaria couldn`t resist.

^ Thank you for explaining about Srebarnite Grivni's Rusky Street clip, Ana K. I liked their Vecheryia Rado song, though I have to say that for me Rusky Street didn`t sound particularly psychedelic, more like an agreeable pop song, but then maybe the lyrics tell a different story...which leads me on, indirectly, to this ...
To be 100% psychedelic, the music should have a specific intention, and lyrics -if any- should encourage, or refer, to an expanded consciousness, wouldn`t you agree?
So what are the world`s greatest psychedelic lyrics?
Without looking very far, here are a couple of contenders:-
Tyrannosaurus Rex:
Stars with eyes embedded in their footprints wept sweet words from our remembered childhood.
John Lennon:
Images of broken light that dance before me like a million suns, they call me on and on across the universe.
