Question: Obscure '60s Bands (That are brilliant)!?
What are your favorite bands from the '60s, that are non as well-known as, say, The Who or Jefferson Airplane!.

I really enjoy the psychedelic bands!. Like The Sonics, 13th Floor Elevators, Strawberry Alarm Clock, The Balloon Farm and bands like that!.

What are yours!.

Look at early Pink Floyd before they became famous (The Piper at the Gates of Dawn!.) Other bands that later became famous, but abandoned their psychadelic roots are worth a look!. The Zombies, King Crimson, Traffic, Buffalo Springfield, the Moody Blues!.

Lesser known:

The Psychedelic Rangers
Electric Prunes
Blues Magoos
The Red Krayola
