17. VARIOUS - PSYCHEDELIC STATES: WISCONSIN IN THE 60s 2008

                 


This volume, the 17th in the series, spotlights the raw garage bands of Wisconsin, and like the previous Psychedelic States volumes, it's heavy on spirit and energy but runs pretty low on originality (and even lower on recorded sound quality).  That Gear Fab is making this stuff available is marvelous, though,

not so much because a perfect lost rock gem might turn up one day on one of these collections (it doesn't seem likely), but because this is really the sound of suburban America singing circa 1965-1967. It's folk music of a sort, the voice of a national community that had no idea it was a community. It didn't matter if you were a garage band in Arkansas or Wisconsin, Boston or San Diego. Come Saturday night you plugged in, turned up, and pretended it was Shea Stadium. It may have been history on a very small stage, but it was history, and it rattled plenty of windowpanes.

19. VARIOUS - PSYCHEDELIC STATES: NEW YORK IN THE 60s Vol. 3 2011

                  


The fun here is in the verve and unabashed audacity of these bands. Tracks like “Tripsy” by Pebble Episode, the perhaps foolishly optimistic “We Got Time” by the Tweeds, and “Doctor Friend” (which

contains the unbelievable line “I know you’ve never studied medicine as such…”) by the Druids are long on punk conviction and delightfully trashy execution, but decidedly short on nuance and polish. Then there’s the track “Destruction,” which is chock-full of spooky organ, but is worth hearing mostly because the band had the inspired or, more likely, insane idea of calling themselves the Thrashing Butterflys of Divine Happiness. It was a heady time.

20. VARIOUS - PSYCHEDELIC STATES: MARYLAND IN THE 60s 2014

                  


Patterned after the spirit of heralded compilation albums such as “Pebbles,” “Back From The Grave,” “Mindrocker,” and “Psychedelic Unknowns,” the series points the laser beam at folks that never had hit singles, but may have been as big as the Beatles in the eyes of local fans. Or in some cases, the bands were so obscure their resumes consisted of playing only a handful of neighborhood gigs. A double album, “Psychedelic States: Maryland In The 60s” supplies a good look at an area that really hasn’t been covered much. Despite the title of the package , the majority of stuff here leans towards the garage rock side of the fence rather than surrealistic sojourns. Because these bands weren’t afforded the luxury of high-end production facilities and in certain circumstances, were still in the process of sharpening their chops, the recordings are raw and economical. But hey, that’s rock and roll, not Emerson, Lake and Palmer or Mariah Carey. Passion over polish, and enthusiasm over elegance is the name of the game.
