Arthur Brown and his Crazy World, classic.

@Mike: One time Julie looked at her set and observed it was becoming like Mike Sin - I told her to just add a bit of rock organ, and she would be there! :)

What a psychedelic Mass! They did "Kyrie Eleison" of course, but what a trip to hear other such songs from the Prunes!

re: "Electric Prunes"
Yes, the David Axelrod version. Latin Christian mass in '68. Jewish Yom Kippur prayer in '69.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:35am
Matt from Springfield:

Wow, that's cool! Acid and prayer just have that synchronicity.

An' Ah Feel Like sum Ahcid rat 'bout naw! Hard to believe Steve Miller Band started out like *this*!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 5:39am
Matt from Springfield:

Okay, different "Prunes" then the original lineup. But in rock the "legal entity" status can often be like that.

This new Black Hollies sounds great -- this one has a Turtles vibe to it.

Okay i just turned on about 10 songs ago but by that & looking at the playlist i'm deciding that i need to check out some Mike Sin archives. I know you did have a regular show but it was not harmonious to my "schedule" & i barely ever heard it.
I really appreciate the seldom-heard herd and the information you present...And i obviously missed some rare gems.
Thanks.
