This book explores the evolution of 19 intriguing artists bred by the unique 1960s music scene, and traces the musical and cultural threads that gave birth to their electrifying innovations.

Includes cool photos throughout, and audio samples highlighting the sounds of some of the featured artists.

Urban Spacemen and Wayfaring Strangers : Overlooked Innovators and Eccentric Visionaries of '60s Rock 1st Table of contents:

1. Made in Britain, Lost in America The Pretty Things: Founded by an original Rolling Stone, they helped set the standard for both wild rhythm and blues and the psychedelic rock opera The Poets: The finest Scottish group of the 1960s, excelling at both melancholy folk-rock ballads and hard mod pop that rocked the house

2. Psychedelic Sailors The Crazy World of Arthur Brown: The god of hellfire had much more to offer than his one big hit single, combining poetry, philosophy, and theater into explorations of good and evil The Electric Prunes: One of the oddest psychedelic journeys of the decade, from the Top Forty to an album-length Latin mass, combining state-of-the-art guitar distortion, varispeed tapes, garage blues-rock, commercial songwriting—and Bo Diddley beats Randy Holden: From surf to psychedelia to metal, the selfdescribed “guitar god” was the closest American counterpart to Jeff Beck, eventually attempting to simulate the sound of a nuclear bomb with his power duo Kaleidoscope: An apt name for a California troupe that could play rock, folk, Appalachian, Cajun, blues, soul, and Middle Eastern music, singly or all at once, on enough instruments to stock a music store

3. Rock Satirists
