I'm having a Mog-In

Artist:
This post goes out to "ookpik":http://mog.com/ookpik and her "Summer of Investigating International Psychedelia":http://mog.com/ookpik/blog_post/1738. I am a big fan of all things psychedelic and garage from the late 60's and 70's. My most recent compilations that I have got are Back to Peru: The Most Complete Compilation of Peruvian Underground 64-74, Love's a Real Thing: The funky fuzzy sounds of West Africa, and Cambodian Cassette Archives: Khmer Folk & Pop Music Vol. 1. I wanted to direct your attention if you haven't been there to "Turn Me On Dead Man's":http://www.turnmeondeadman.net/index.html list of "garage and psychedelic compilations":http://www.turnmeondeadman.net/ADM/GPC/GPCMain.html. It's a pretty excellent resource that points out a lot of comps that cover this area. I have gotten a few of these (Cicadelic 60's, Nuggets, Pebbles, Fuzz Flaykes & Shakes...) and they have all been pretty great. In particular for "ookpik":http://mog.com/ookpik I wanted to point out the "Love, Peace and Poetry":http://www.turnmeondeadman.net/ADM/GPCSeries/LovePeaceandPoetry.html series. I haven't gotten it yet but the reviews I've read looks promising. Each disc focuses on psychedelia from a particular country. So far there are eight discs covering, America, Latin America, Asia, Japan, Britain, Brazil, Mexico, and Africa. I'm definitely going to check these out. If you already have one or some of them let me know how they are. I also wanted to point out the "Psychedelic Music":http://www.psychedelic-music.com/ site which covers all manner of rare psych albums and comps.
