"Classic Californian rock. Surrealistic pillow, is a superb record. Released at the time when the psychedelic scene was in full swing, this album isn't quite as out there as their next record would be, in fact, surrealistic pillow, is just a damn good rock'n'roll record. Somebody to love, today, and, plastic fantastic lover, are all quality cuts but the real clincher is, white rabbit. Along with Procul Harum's, whiter shade of pale, white rabbit, is one of the greatest songs/singles to be released during the flower power era. A great song from a great album."

"This came out in the "summer of love" 1967, along with "Sgt. Pepper", "the Doors", and "Are you experienced"...I think that the feeling of that summer can be best understood by the first line of "Somebody to love"..."When the truth is found, to beeeeeeee liiiiiiieeeeeeeesssssssss" and then the two percussive organ chords put a period on that sentence....perfect summation of the counterculture movement... I was too young to be a participant in that movement and I was more of a spectator, but I remember my reaction to the first line of that song.."
