  1. #NowPlaying Blue Cheer's 'Vincebus Eruptum' from 1968. Thanks to @wendigo for tipping me off to this. I think I'd heard a cover of Summertime Blues but never this whole record. It's rad as FUCK. Like a more psych Sonics or almost Kinks, with some great, extreme fuzz too- bluesy psych rock or "acid rock". Mudhoney definitely took a cue or two from these guys, too. A KILLER listen.

  2. I read the other day that Jim Morrison was a big fan of the Beach Boys album Wild Honey, and despite me not being a Doors fan, I gotta agree with him.

    The Beach Boys were the first band I was really into as a kid- the Beatles right around the same time, but afterwards. When I was really young, my parents would play both bands pretty often.

    Everyone of course knows the Beach Boys' big beach related hits, but Wild Honey is an overlooked masterpiece from 1967. It doesn't have any of the big hits (and no beach related songs), but Darlin' might be my favorite BB song. The whole record is incredible. The BASSLINES on it, too. 🤯
