A recent discovery of mine, very great sunshine pop with slight psychedelic overtones. Kinda like Odessey And Oracle, thought possibly less joyful. Incredible songwriting on display here, I think it should fit your tastes.
YEP! I agree with you 100% I didn't list this one, but it definitely IS a favorite of mine and fits the category perfectly! ๐ _________________ Speakers of the House DJ

WHOAH! Lots of suggestions! I've never heard Grapefruit...but, I just ordered it on CD purely based on it's appearance with some others that I already adore on your list. Thanks! I'll let you know what I think of it when it gets here! (Sorry, I'm old-fashioned. I like my music on CD or vinyl.)
By the way, I'm very impressed with the Peppermint Trolley Company suggestion. How many of you out there knew/remember that they were the ones who performed the Brady Bunch theme during its early days (before the Brady Kids took it over)? _________________ Speakers of the House DJ

As someone who was raised on old tv, this is really interesting! I knew it changed but had no idea why/from who, I'll have to check them out for sure then ๐ This isn't really my genre, but there's some cool stuff out there, or at least, some that I very much enjoy, as evidenced (I hope) by my posting here. _________________
A few more albums which weren't mentioned before and I love:
Soft Machine - self-titled (1968), Volume Two (1969) and Third (1970). The latter one is more jazz fusion/experimental, but the first two albums are more prog-rock/canterbury rock with more psychedelic elements. My favourite wold be their first album, which is the only one with Kevin Ayers on it.

I hope you like Grapefruit! I really I think Around Grapefruit is a must listen for any Beatles fan (they actually got some support by the fab four, John Lennon even named the band).
