I love this group, they're one of the best american psychedelic bands out there. I used to listen to these guys all the time when I was tripping and just go off into another world.
The band is genius on so many levels. the beautiful lyrics and melodyto "splash", the howling scream roky provides on "youre gonna miss me", the huge head trip of kingdom to heaven. Add on top of that the insightful lyrics of Tommy Hall who's jug playing makes you feel high no matter where you are. They're one of the few bands to also improve on a dylan song (It's all over now baby blue) They're a great example of a band being totally original when it comes to being psychedelic instead of sticking to the formula of extended guitar workouts, they prove true pscyhedelia is a state of mind.
