1970 Stooges FUN HOUSE, had the most direct influence on artists such as Nebula, Fu Manchu, Monster Magnet, as well as Kyuss. The raw dirty unpolished low-fi sound was a hallmark characteristic of many of their early recordings. 60's bands you're refering to, like the 13 Floor Elevators, The Seeds, The Shadows of Night, Nazz were referred to as garage bands or "underground music" partly due to Lenny Kaye's Nuggets compilation, and IMO all seem too polished and singles oriented, which is the complete opposite of most stoner bands.
