The Space Ritual Alive in Liverpool and London is a 1973 live double album recorded in 1972 by UK rock band Hawkwind. It is their fourth album, reached #9 in the UK album charts and briefly dented the Billboard Top 200, peaking at #179.
The album was recorded during the tour to promote their Doremi Fasol Latido album, which comprises the bulk of this set. In addition, there are new tracks ("Born To Go", "Upside Down" and "Orgone Accumulator") and the songs are interspersed by electronic and spoken pieces making this one continuous performance. Curiously, their recent hit single "Silver Machine" was excluded from the set, and only "Master of the Universe" remains from their first two albums.
The Space Ritual show attempted to create a full audio-visual-cerebral experience, representing themes developed by Barney Bubbles and Robert Calvert entwining the fantasy of Starfarers in suspended animation travelling through time and space with the concept of the music of the spheres.[1] The performance featured dancers Stacia, Miss Renee and Tony Carrera, stage set by Bubbles,[2] lightshow by Liquid Len and poetry recitations by Calvert. On entering the venue, audience members were given a free programme[3] (reproduced on the 1996 remaster CD) featuring a short sci-fi story by Bubbles setting the band in a Starfarers scenario returning to Earth.
The original release featured edits and overdubs, the sleeve notes explaining that "We had to cut a piece out of Brainstorm and Time We Left because they were too long", but the 1985 Space Ritual Volume 2 album contains the full unedited versions. A previously unheard edited version of "You Shouldn't Do That" (segued with an unlisted "Seeing It As You Really Are") from this concert was included on the 1976 Roadhawks compilation album, then subsequently included as a bonus track on the 1996 remaster CD. The full unedited version of the track can be found on the Hawkwind Anthology album. June 2007 saw another EMI remaster issue with different bonus tracks and DVD-audio.
"Sonic Attack" had been written by sci-fi author Michael Moorcock, who often performed with the band when convenient and Calvert was unavailable. Here it is recited by Calvert and it was scheduled for single release, promotional copies being distributed in a cloth sleeve, but it never did receive a full release.
In the Q & Mojo Classic Special Edition Pink Floyd & The Story of Prog Rock, the album came #8 in its list of "40 Cosmic Rock Albums"

滚石音乐(Rolling Stone Magazine )史上最佳Top 500 Albums之010#

The Zombies这个乐队并不怎么出名，Odessey and Oracle是他们的最后一张专辑，推出之后不久乐队就散伙了。专辑录制于1967年，但发行商直到1969年才把它翻出来听（个人认为很可能是打算听一遍就扔掉），然而听过之后，这个交好运的发行商忽然发现原来垃圾堆里也有宝贝，这张专辑才得以发行。
就是这样一张侥幸逃过灭顶之灾且知名度并不太高的唱片，在强手林立的滚石500张最强专辑中排名却高居第80位，并不是偶然的。滚石的编辑认为，这张专辑把类似于Beatles的那张Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band中的迷幻曲风和正在发展的英格兰流行音乐进行了很好的融合。我听过之后，觉得确实非常好听，单纯论好听的话，我认为不比Beatles那张Sgt' Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band差。如果不是因为乐队名气实在太小，我相信这张专辑还可以获得更高的名次，推荐！
这张专辑在1998年推出30周年纪念版，在原版12首歌基础上增加15首Bonus Track。2004年又再版一次，总曲目变为28首。[from verycd]

2003 reissue of 1967 album, packaged in a digipak, includes four bonus tracks, 'Defecting Grey', 'Mr. Evasion', 'Talkin' About The Good Times', & 'Walking Through My Dreams'. Snapper.

In-A-Gadda-Da-Vida is the second studio album by the American rock band Iron Butterfly, released in 1968. It is most known for the title track, a simple composition which, due to an extended jam, occupies the whole of Side B. The album is also available in a deluxe edition CD.

Dr. John's 1968 release for Atco, reissued with original artwork and new liner notes. Extremely unique album, one part psychedelia, one part New Orleans R&B and one part...something else , voodoo ritual, maybe. First time on CD in the U.S. Standard jewel case. 2000 release.

Originally released on Columbia in 1968, The United States of America is one of the legendary pure psychedelic space records. Some of the harder-rocking tunes have a fun house recklessness that recalls aspects of early Pink Floyd and the Velvet Underground at their freakiest; the sedate, exquisitely orchestrated ballads, especially "Cloud Song" and the wonderfully titled "Love Song for the Dead Che," are among the best relics of dreamy psychedelia. Occasionally things get too excessive and self-conscious, and the attempts at comedy are a bit flat, but otherwise this is a near classic.

Vincebus Eruptum (the first word is pronounced 'win-kay-bus') is the debut studio album by American rock band Blue Cheer. Released in January 1968, the album was the first to feature the band's classic lineup of vocalist and bassist Dickie Peterson, guitarist Leigh Stephens and drummer Paul Whaley. A commercial and critical success, Vincebus Eruptum peaked at number 11 on the Billboard 200 albums chart and spawned the top-20 hit cover of Eddie Cochran's "Summertime Blues". It is lauded as one of the first heavy metal albums.
