July
4.  July by July
The list author says:
  "A super fab slice of British psychedelia.  In the pre-internet age, this was ultra rare.  I spent 15 years trying to find a copy in any format.  Some tracks do sound dated but it's still fab."
£11.93   Used & New from: £8.15
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)

3.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

United States of America: Remastered
6.  United States of America: Remastered by United States Of America
The list author says:
  "Extremely experimental for its time.  This is an excellent document of fuzzed-out, freaked-out US psychedelia with some early electro experimentation thrown-in."
£15.17   Used & New from: £8.33
4.9 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (7 customer reviews)

The Plastic Cloud

Trip Thru Hell
8.  Trip Thru Hell by C.a. Quintet
The list author says:
  "Another US group you may or may not have heard of.  This is an excellent album.  These guys really do freak and fuzz-out at times."
£16.67   Used & New from: £8.73
4.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (2 customer reviews)

Young Man's Song
9.  Young Man's Song by Frumious Bandersnatch
The list author says:
  "Fairly obscure West Coast .. these guys are brilliant.  This is missing "Hearts To Cry", which I really love.  Still, well worth the expense."
£12.43   Used & New from: £7.99

Ultimate Spinach
10.  Ultimate Spinach by Ultimate Spinach
The list author says:
  "Mellow US psychedelia ... some very trippy tracks."

Chariot Rising
11.  Chariot Rising by Dantalian's Chariot
The list author says:
  "Another one that was probably ultra rare in the pre-internet age.  This has some fine examples of British psychedelia - e.g. "Fourpenny Bus Ride", "Madman Running Through The Fields"."
£16.50
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (3 customer reviews)

Crazy Diamond (3CD)
12.  Crazy Diamond (3CD) by Syd Barrett
The list author says:
  "Boxset with all three of Syd Barrett's solo albums.  Material from "The Madcap Laughs" is the best, in my opinion.  This is mellow, trippy stuff.  Barrett sounds somehow unhinged, on the edge."
Used & New from: £13.99
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (4 customer reviews)

Oar
13.  Oar by Skip Spence
The list author says:
  "Track six alone is worth it.  This is a strange collection of songs, but worth the price. Once again, track six is super trippily good."
£13.94   Used & New from: £6.71
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)

Alpha Centauri
14.  Alpha Centauri by Tangerine Dream
The list author says:
  "Mind-bending, time-stretching.  The early Tangerine Dream albums are so far-out you'll find it hard to believe.  Try "Zeit" also."
Used & New from: £4.24

Surrealistic Pillow
15.  Surrealistic Pillow by Jefferson Airplane
The list author says:

Paperback writer (#r5452) [VINYL]
16.  Paperback writer (#r5452) [VINYL] by The Beatles

Happy Trails
18.  Happy Trails by Quicksilver Messenger Service
The list author says:
  "West Coast?  This album by Quicksilver Messenger Service distills the sound of  California somewhere between 1966-1968.  A long, strange, super trip."
£5.49   Used & New from: £3.95
4.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (9 customer reviews)

20.  Love Is The Song We Sing: San Francisco Nuggets 1965-1970 by Various Artists

£27.99
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (10 customer reviews)

Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965-1968
21.  Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965-1968 by Nuggets (Series)
The list author says:
  "Another killer compilation/boxset.  They really do serve as an excellent intro to all sorts of artists you'd never otherwise know about.  Worth the price, although perhaps more garage than psyche."
£63.64   Used & New from: £41.13
5.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (5 customer reviews)

The Box Of Trash
22.  The Box Of Trash by Various Artists

£17.99
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (12 customer reviews)

Safe As Milk
23.  Safe As Milk by Captain Beefheart
The list author says:
  "I admire the craziness of "Trout Mask Replica" but this is still, probably, my favourite Captain Beefheart album.  The original "Mirror Man" album is also a release worth purchasing."
£3.97   Used & New from: £1.71
4.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (28 customer reviews)

Ah Feel Like Ahcid: 24 American Psychedelic Artefacts From The EMI Vaults

Monterey Int'l Pop Festival
25.  Monterey Int'l Pop Festival by Various
