The year is 1967. A lot of popular musicians are moving towards psychedelia. It's kind of a buttoned up movement still--on the surface people still look business casual, even if their hair is getting long. The San Francisco hippie scene hasn't yet merged with the British invasion. But all that would change during the "Summer of Love", when they all came together and made a promise to "turn on, tune in, and drop out." Jefferson Airplane took center stage as the group most representative of that ethos, with their recent addition of model-turned-singer, Grace Slick on vocals. She brought with her a few songs from her previous group, The Great Society that would come to define the hippie movement as a whole; the pop hit "Somebody to Love" and the moody psychedelic anthem "White Rabbit". The concept behind Surrealistic Pillow...? Acid... It's a lot of acid.

Join us this week as a mentally unwell man (Brad) attempts to explain the story of The Parallax II to a friend just trying to have a good time (Dave) in this paranoia filled, unaliving obsessed (TW), cosmic horror/power fantasy. Also, it's about isolation and entanglement... and the beginning of everything... or something like that. Idk, we drank a few beers and tried to unravel the story, but I think it just unraveled us.

It's the 5th anniversary show... kind of. We're a little late but there were some time travel shenanigans that we had to attend to. Anyway, we love you all and we appreciate listening to our ramblings all these years. Be good to each other out there.

Soooo... Last week we were glazing pretty hard about our boys in The Pink Floyd... but this week... the glazing has come to a hard stop. Maybe it's the weird production choices, maybe it's the awesome album cover for a below average Floyd album, maybe it's the fact that we JUST listened to Meddle, in which they perfect what they were trying to accomplish here with the "Atom Heart Mother" suite. Maybe we've become cynical and jaded. Either way, if you want to hear us be critical about Floyd for once, this is the episode for it! Sorry in advance to all the Atom Heart Mother die hards...

We're officially in the throes of SEASON 5!!! And you know that means that it's time to talk about another Pink Floyd album in our series going backwards through their discography. Last time we left our heroes, they were throwing together an album that was for a movie, but also wasn't? (i don't remember that feels like a lifetime ago). However, before that, they had achieved what would become their signature sound, with the long-crafted compilation of various "nothings" they had left on the cutting room floor throughout the years. That achievement was called "Echoes" and it takes up the entire B side of Pink Floyd's 4th (or 5th) record, "Meddle". Side A also has some songs that would become Floyd classics, such as "Fearless" and "One of These Days". It's underrated by the casual rock fan, and overrated by Floyd purists. Either way, it's a magical and important piece to the Pink Floyd journey. EDITOR'S NOTE: Brad was incorrect when he said they didn't perform the whole "Echoes" suite live in Pompeii. He was just looking at a shorter version of it on YouTube, like a chump.

Everyone that listens to this podcast knows that I ride for Inspector 34. Their debut album, Love My Life was my album of the year when it came out and this is proving to be one of my favorites this year. Seriously, these guys are critically underrated and they deserve to be in your earholes. Also, this ep is fun if you enjoy musicians actually discussing the recording process. This band reps both coasts and everything inbetween and you won't regret listening.

We've been doing the podcast for almost 5 years and in that time we've discussed all variety of concept albums. We've discussed brilliantly crafted social commentaries, deeply personal tragedies, space oddities, and brat reinventions. We've followed the rise of King Crimson and the fall of Pink Floyd, the tragedy of Janice Joplin and the triumph of Louryn Hill, and the forerunners of the concept albums we enjoy today. This has been an incredible journey and we couldn't have done it without each and every listener that tunes in. You have let me do a thing I have a passion for and I get to keep doing it because you keep listening! I'll be forever grateful. And I'm especially grateful for my cohosts, past and present, for giving me their time and energy these past 5 years. John Griffith, Jake "the Snake" Foster, Trevor "The Altered Beast" Kolden, Scott Westley, Nathan Maney, Reis Galvan, and of course, the cohosts with the mo-host Jon Acker and Dave Gallagher. I love you guys and I couldn't be happier with this podcast and the people I make it with.

We have Rockford, IL's own The Bitter Ends and we're wrapping up 199 episodes of the podcast (before starting fresh on 200) with truly one of the greatest concepts to grace this podcast, Frances the Mute! From the beautiful, but tragic story, to the inspiration that created it, to the scorching riffs and prog trumpets (to the decoded version of the album that combines the single Frances the Mute overtop the album Frances the Mute). If you're a concept fan, this is an epic concept. See The Bitter Ends live in September!!!!
