Lost Gems Make It Great

"I was having a difficult time finding the song Itchycoo Park when I stumbled upon this album. The 66 to 69 time period saw such a prolific surge in great bands or at least unique songs that many were overlooked or have since been forgotten. This album retrieves many a lost gem that you won't find anywhere else and puts them all together in a great package. You get about 3 hours of music and about 60 songs, so there are a few that you probably won't like, but 90% of the songs are psychedelic treats that fulfill the appetite for exploration. I'm very happily surprised that in looking for one song I ended up with dozens that I never knew existed that are unique and of great quality. This experimentation in where music could go and where it can send the listener deserves a place in your music collection."
