Albums that sound similar to Strawberry Alarm Clock's debut

Albums that sound similar to Strawberry Alarm Clock's debut

One of my favourites because of how unique it sounds. It's kinda cliche '67 psychedelia sound, although no one really sounded quite like them. The combo organ, the fuzzrite, flutes, jazzy progressions, it all makes for an absolute ear candy of an album. What are the most similar to this one that you can think of?

Best Dylan covers

I love Dylan. And I love when psychedelic bands take his songs and make them trippy. I've heard and loved 13th Floor Elevators, Hendrix, The Byrds, Them and Chocolate Watchband covering Dylan. What else could you recommend? Non-psych Garage Rock versions are welcome as well.

How is this style called?

I'm thinking about one particular style of interior. Something like wood + cobblestone for surfaces, bright abstract shaped couches and chairs, Picasso type paintings, cacti. It's usually associated with 60s Hollywood houses. Is there a name for it? I hope you'll understand.

60s albums with a lot of fuzz and feedback

Hey dudes. What are the most fuzzed out, feedback heavy, freakoutish 60s albums that you know? Sonically I'm thinking about Blue Cheer's debut and James Gurley's messy guitar solos in Big Brother.

Got my first sleep paralysis today and now I can't sleep

So yeah, today was my first sleep paralysis with false awakening and even though nothing really scary happened, because I managed to escape it before it got bad, now every time I try to sleep I feel like I'm not going into normal sleep mode, but directly to this weird hallucinatory state. Just woke up from a failed attempt to fall asleep because I heard a lip smack that couldn't be there because I'm alone. And the feeling in the body was the same as I remember it. How do I normally go to sleep again? I'm scared of this shit.

90s MIDI acoustic guitar sound - is there a VST for that?

You probably know what I'm talking about. For example, in the song Children by Robert Miles you can hear this simulated guitar a lot. There must be a VST for that, could you help me out with finding one?

What are the best Godzilla movies to watch while baked

I'm not an expert, but I know the 60s movies are pretty awesome in their dumbness. What are the quintessential absurd Godzilla movies that will make my brains leak out of my nose while I'm very high on drugs?

My first steps in bebop journey

Just started transcribing my first bebop standard - Stitt's Fine and Dandy. Having fun.

Psychedelic songs or albums with a trumpet

I dig Gong and Hawkwind for their sax action and am curious if there are albums or songs where a trumpet is used in a similar manner. Like with full on solos, not just accompaniment. I am aware of Miles Davis, of course, you may not mention him here.

Eric Dolphy's rhythmical phrasing

Hey. I'm a musical theory noob, I have very poor theoretical knowledge and operate only by feelings when I'm listening to jazz. And as a beginner trumpet player I understand how limiting this is. So, there's one thing I really want to understand now. In this song: https://youtu.be/Z9UKTv7y4Es?si=yw5pjy7IRRfkcNas Eric is playing some rhythmically breathtaking stuff. His solo begins at 5:32. The thing I'm talking about is this gallop rhythm he does a lot. What exactly is happening here? Could you please explain if you understand what I'm talking about? Also, there's a specific moment from 6:16 to 6:22 that drives me crazy, but I just can't get what exactly he does here. Thanks in advance.

It's like he's outside of the rhythm, but it still works. Is it like syncopated triplets or something?

4 months. Why is my lower B flat out of tune?

What could be the reason for it? Is it me or the horn?

SOLVED

My dumb ass unknowingly modulated half a step down. I'm still not really good at transcribing things by ear.

Here's my take on Dr. John

It's obviously not psychedelic at all with just an acoustic guitar, more of a delta blues/bossa nova thing, but I thought you might dig it.

Albums like Monk's Misterioso and In Action

I absolutely adore these. Probably in my all-time favourite list. The combination of Monk's weirdness and Griffin's bebop-oriented playing is nothing less than blissful. What do you consider to be similar?

How are self-taught jazz musicians percieved in the community?

Of course, creativity and technical abilities are the only things that really matter. But still, most of the performers in jazz clubs or other jazz-related venues are scholars. I have only met one guy who plays jazz without education (he's my trumpet teacher), but organizes concerts and jam sessions by himself, mostly in small bars, he has never played in real jazz clubs. So the question is, can you be percieved as a real jazz musician and be let to perform with scholars if you are a good musician, but don't have an official education? Maybe it's a dumb question, but I'm genuinely intrested in your opinion and personal experience on this.

Give me your best hi-res Dizzy photos for a poster

I wanna make a poster with Dizzy for my room. Give me most hi-res photos of him that you consider iconic. Preferably pre-60s.
