Psychedelic / Garage. Psychedelic rock emerged in the mid-'60s, as British Invasion and folk-rock bands began expanding the sonic possibilities of their music. Instead of confining themselves to the brief, concise verse-chorus-verse patterns of rock & roll, they moved toward more free-form, fluid song structures.
- The Beatles, "Strawberry Fields Forever" (1967) While psychedelia had already been established by early 1967, "Strawberry Fields Forever" was more or less the real start of the genre.
- Pink Floyd, "See Emily Play" (1967) Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd expertly fused the light and dark sides of psychedelia; for every pop song about a gnome or scarecrow on their debut, there was one free-form freak-out.
- The Byrds, "Eight Miles High" (1966) "Eight Miles High" is not only one of the first psychedelic rock songs but also one of the best. Guitarist Roger McGuinn's expert fusion of Indian and jazz melodies on his Rickenbacker 12-string signaled the start of an exciting new era.
- The Who, "I Can See For Miles" (1967) The Who may have hopped on the psychedelic bandwagon later than most of their contemporaries, but "I Can See for Miles" proves they could do it just as well - if not better.

- Love: Forever Changes (1967) This classic album from really stands apart from the best psychedelic albums. There are no studio effects, no freeform jams, and hardly even any electric guitars.
- The Beatles: Magical Mystery Tour (1967) Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band may have changed music, but if there was one moment that psychedelicised the world, it was the release of “Strawberry Fields Forever” (backed with “Penny Lane”) as a single in February 1967.
- Spirit: Twelve Dreams Of Dr Sardonicus (1970) Released in November 1970, this was the original psychedelic era’s final masterpiece. Lyrically, Twelve Dreams Of Dr Sardonicus wraps up everything that era was trying to say.
- The Jimi Hendrix Experience: Electric Ladyland (1968) Jimi Hendrix was psychedelic by his very existence, and the expansive double-album Electric Ladyland brought you further inside his head (and closer to other parts of his anatomy) than any other record.
