Details:
Issued in October 1966, âPsychedelic Moodsâ is the first album in the history of Rock music to incorporate âPsychedelicâ in itâs title, beating out âThe Psychedelic Sounds Of The 13th Floor Elevatorsâ and The Blues Magooâs âPsychedelic Lollipopâ by one month. The album sold in minute amounts, possibly due to the unforeseen smash success of The Deepâs label mates, âQuestion Mark and The Mysterionsââ whose hit â96 Tearsâ was number one on the charts. Since that time though, âPsychedelic Moodsâ has attained cult status as one of the definitive examples of the then newly emerging âpsychedelic soundâ. The album was intended to provide the listener with a simulated acid trip, replete with fuzz guitar, flute, backwards guitars, banjo, washboard, xylophone, wild sound effects, and love making. Songs such as âTrip #76â, âPsychedelic Moonâ, âPink Etherâ, and âColor Dreamsâ explored the hallucinatory agony and ecstasy of a 12 hour Technicolor dream.

Now over 40 years later, this release of âPsychedelic Moodsâ contains never before heard masters of The Deep that reveal sonic qualities and nuances of their sound that have not been realized till now, because the source for these sounds are from the original four track tapes. In addition to the superlative masters there are previously unseen Deep memorabilia and liner notes detailing the mysterious rise and fall of this New York City band that included David Bromberg and Rusty Evans. The Deepâs sound, while similar to The Velvet Underground, pre-dates their first album, âThe Velvet Underground and Nicoâ by five months. With full co-operation of original Deep producers, Mark Barkan and Rusty Evans, this release lays to rest the numerous bootlegs issued over the years by Fallout and Radioactive Records.
