some releases of 1967

that Velvet Underground album had a big influence on Amon Düül 2, by the way; the Düüls loved that album. in the Amon Düül 2 biography "Tanz der Lemminge" by Ingeborg Schober Chris Karrer says: "sie haben ihre Instrumente gespielt wie die Schweine" ("they played their instruments like pigs"). when you listen to that Velvet Underground album and "Phallus Dei" back to back you can certainly hear the influence. even the voice of Chris Karrer sounds a bit like the voice of Lou Reed

	Great list, love or at least like them all, Kaleidoscope (US) is the one I have listened least. Like to add some great albums: Red Crayola: Parable Of Arable Land Kaleidoscope (UK): Tangerine Dream Blossom Toes: We are Ever So Clean Blues Section: s/t Country Joe & the Fish: Electric Music For the Mind & the Body Country Joe & the Fish: I-Feel-Like-I´m-Fixin- to- Die the Deviants: Ptooff! Pearls Before Swine: One Nation Underground Leonard Cohen: Songs Of Leonard Cohen Bob Dylan: John Wesley Harding Edited by Mortte - July 24 2019 at 02:17

	Love that people are remembering The Kaleidoscope (US)....preferred the later release of Beacon From Mars (1968, so not qualified for this list), but Side Trips has some great music as well. Also that additions here by others have been Pearls Before Swine, Love and CJ & Fish. I certainly also enjoy so many of these LP's of the poll, great "short" list and hard-pressed to vote for a favourite. Edited by Snicolette - July 24 2019 at 07:52

	I like many individual songs from a lot of those but the albums all seem a bit patchy. For listening to the whole album all the way through I suppose I’d go for Captain Beefheart but my favourite from 1967 is actually Mort Garson’s The Zodiac: Cosmic Sounds.

	Lots of good ones here. I went with Disraeli Gears with Hendrix, Jefferson Airoplane , The Doors, The Moody Blues & Traffic close behind.
