Psychedelia Album Club I - "Incense and Peppermints" - The Strawberry Alarm Clock
When you're done listening to the album, tell us here so we know when everyone is ready to discuss. Feel free to mention a couple of first impressions, but abstain from any serious discussion.

I'm two songs away from being done, but I don't like this. At best it's like a 2/5 - does nothing for me. Okay done discussing now sorry. |

I'm being tortured by The Batlord with Limp Bizkit atm, but will try to get a listen to it in the next day or so.
BTW you can put my choice spot up for grabs too, as I know nothing about this music and could not hope to recommend anything. I'll learn from you guys.

I've always preferred Wake Up... It's Tomorrow to this one, but it's a classic no doubt. The first track is a stellar acid rock jam, and it's my favorite on the album by a long shot. Strawberry Alarm Clock, especially with the title track of this album, are a good soundtrack for the stereotype that we envision the late 60's counterculture hippie era to be like. Maybe more thoughts later, but it's a 7/10 from me. A lot of bands from the same time were releasing what I'd consider much stronger albums. This one is more poppy and junk, not that that's bad or anything.
