Electric Music is perhaps the greatest psychedelic album of all time Different aspects of the psychedelic experienceexcept those of the brown acid variety are represented here from the crazed caotic energy of Superbird the deeply meditative or stoned Bass Strings the soulfully flowing Section 43 to the sheer fun of this album During a psychedelic experience one is often able to percieve or rather hear colors in music Electric music is replete with them and examples can be found on the organ solo of Love to Barry Meltons guitar solo on The Masked Marauder The mix of different tones on this album has been seldom paralled especially in the digital ninties Chicken Hirshs resonant tom tom drums Bruce Barthols rich bass David Cohen milky organ and Barry Meltons guitar provide a nice rich timbre palete throughout the album particular evident on the instrumentals Section 43 and The Masked Marauder Barry Meltons vocals on Love sound like Satchmo on acid and add to the fun of this masterpiece Country Joe once told me that the songs were arranged so that you would forget the tune you just hear before the one you were hearing He also said that the band tested the album out themselves Now if thats not quality control I dont know what is An analog masterpiece for those curious to know what music sounded like before the digital age A high recommend
