Velvet_underground_and_nico_small This week Stuck in the Psychedelic Era goes underground. What's that you say? The show is already about as underground as it gets? Well, true, but this week we ramp it up a notch as we put the emphasis on album tracks and B sides, avoiding (with the exception of one of the songs heard in a Music Machine set) even our own top 25 most-played songs. In fact, of the nearly 30 tracks played on this week's show, only four made the top 40 charts, and one of those (I Want To Take You Higher) started off as a B side. The other three (by Wilson Pickett, Herman's Hermits and Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels) can be considered novelties, at least within the context of Stuck in the Psychedelic Era. Take a look at the playlist below and you'll see just what we are talking about.
