ORANGE&GREEN&YELLOW&NEAR: SOUNDS OF SIXTIES FOLK-ROCK



An exploration of lesser-known, forgotten, obscure (and a few more obvious) tracks from the mid-to-late sixties - or thereabouts - which satisfy my definition of folk rock. Dylan covers/copyists, Byrds-a-likes (but not Dylan or the Byrds!), jangly guitars, not too much keyboard, harmonies - you get the idea. Plus anything else I think fits.

It's been over a year since volume 14 of my occasional folk rock series. What I put in these compilations rather depends on what has come my way since the last volume. I listen to a lot of different things from all genres, and anything I think might be suitable for OGYN I put in a dedicated folder. How long it takes to get enough tracks together varies, although it seems to have been getting longer over the years. The present selection is unusual in a few ways. It's all bands - no solo artists, it's mostly from 1965-66 and it leans very strongly towards the psychedelic. No harm in that, as far as I'm concerned.
