The Sound and Vision of Psychedelia

"Okay. You've swallowed the magic cube, downed a cup of organic tea with filigree leaves, and placed the diamond needle on the appropriate sounds. Now sit back and wait 20 minutes, until twinges of nausea herald the coming of the hereafter." — Richard Goldstein, from "The Psychedelic Psell," Village Voice, 1967

Chaos all around me
With its fevered clinging
But I can hear you singing
In the corners of my brain.
— 13th Floor Elevators, 'I Had To Tell You'
