In this episode we focus on the very end of the first psychedelic period, namely the early 1980s. This period still links to the mindset of the late 60s but without becoming retro. Today’s selection is a mixed bag of DIY and later-phase hippie music. Genres in this episode includes folk-rock, singer-songwriters, AOR, real people music and rural rock but each of the artist brings their personal artistic vision into the mix that expand beyond genres to create something truly unique. We have tried to avoid the more classic titles of the 80s psych scene to instead concentrate on some of the less discussed albums.
