Cosmic Tones For Mental Therapy by Sun Ra

Sun Ra is so underrated and this is a fantastic album. I'm so glad someone acknowledged him.

So we've had 50 years of "the beatles used the studio as an instrument" but people still think of production as something wholly separate from songwriting? Wonder how much longer that'll take to sink in.

also seems crazy that this one is 50 years old

You Got My Mind Messed Up by James Carr

Yeah, this for sure. I think it's one of the best soul records of all time.

Also, not soul, but I should probably recommend this as well:

I love this concept/possibilities for discussion.

I just had a major change in my life, so less time for such.

I'll leave my list here for now... absolutely amazing year for music, in my book. I probably didn't even scratch the surface, but it's a decent start on what I love about the year:

Top 40 Music Albums of 1967 by sethmadsen

EDIT: I thought this was 1967 discussion, not less known works of 1967... doh!

In that case, if you don't know Procol Harum, check that out. I was also surprised by Bee Gee's debut.

10 '67 albums on 15 charts or less on BEA that I think are great:

Oooo 😄 Some great looking recs there. I've only head two of those.

Jmo, 1967 is pretty insane. The further you dig the better it gets. Here are some of my lesser known recs, most of them are bassa and jazz.

Last year I started getting into listening to albums in their anniversary years and although I started a little late I enjoyed it. I'm going to start this year focusing on 1967 albums, in their 50th year. I listen to most of my music on vinyl and I think I have like 25 albums from 67, mostly the big stuff but I want to hear about some of your favorite lesser known works.

So what are some of your favorite 1967 albums that don't get enough love that I should give a listen to?
