10 Essential Psych Albums
1. The Pink Floyd, Piper At the Gates of Dawn

2. The Jesus and Mary Chain, Psychocandy: Fantastic energy, amazing use of tone (and lack thereof) before it was cool.

3. Spacemen 3, The Perfect Prescription: Ethereally evocative of everything good about psychedelic rock and roll. Sounds like drugs without being exclusive.

5. The Doors, The Doors (Although the entire catalogue is definitive)

6. Can, Tago Mago/Soundtracks

7. Jimi Hendrix, Electric Lady Land

8. The Brian Jonestown Massacre, Bravery, Repetition and Noise

9. The Telescopes, Taste

10. Dead Meadow, Howls from the Hills
