I once spent far too much time listening to rare late-60s and early-70s psych rock albums. Many of them were released on small independent labels or in self-pressed editions of a few 100 copies. Much of it was dire, but there were a myriad of gems if you looked for them and so I decided to select 20 of my favourite tracks for a compilation. A few years down the line, I still listen to this mix and think it's pretty great - so I'm putting it out for a short while for you to enjoy for free.
