I've been meaning to post this one for a long time.

Arthur is Arthur Gee, a singer songwriter from Canada. In 1969, he recorded a one sided demo L.P. for the Two:Dot label, which sadly never got a release. Those demos were collected together with other tracks from various sessions, plus a rare 45 rpm.

This is excellent downer acid folk. Don't be put off by the 'singer/songwriter' tag, these stoner poems are lonely, out there and slot right in next to your (more mournful) Donovan, Perry Leopold et al.

DRAGONFLY - 4 CELESTIAL SONGS E.P.

Phillips 1968

01. Celestial Dreams
02. Desert of Almond
03. Celestial Empire
04. Prince of Amboyna

This E.P. collects the two Phillips singles released by Dragonfly in 1968, it's also their entire recorded output. Heavily influenced by Hendrix and The Doors etc. This band doesn't really sound like the other Scandinavian psych releases available here. It is dead good though, a little bit of fuzzy, bummed out psych.
