The Byrds. 5D is freaking spectacular, and it just beats The Doors' debut with a greater slew of outstanding songs, ... though maybe none of them are as good as "The Crystal Ship", ... but I may be wrong. Who cares?

Jimi Hendrix (Soft Machine to me are more a 70s band)
And before somebody starts sending me the release date of SM albums....I mean "to me" ![]() Of course Doors and Moody Blues would have deserved my vote as well Edited by octopus-4 - March 05 2013 at 14:19 |

Moody Blues. It was real close between them and the Softs, but several people acknowledged they're more of a 70s band, so that helped me decide. The Moody Blues (along with Beatles) was the first band I ever listened to. I was a big fan by the age of five, and those seven classic albums are never far out of reach.

Your other poll has the Velvet Underground as a "hippy" band, which they weren't at all. In fact, they stood in opposition to the whole flower power thing.
My favorite "hippy" band would be Sly & the Family Stone. They were multiracial, they played at Woodstock, they sang about peace and love, and they saw the writing on the wall pretty quickly, with "There's a Riot Goin' On" (which might be thought of as the VU & Nico album of soul/r&b). Oh yeah, my favorite hippy album is Love's "Forever Changes." That album magically transports me to a time and place that i've never been to but is in many of our collective imaginations about the 60s. Brilliant, beautiful album.

Of these choices it's a toss up between the Doors and Jimi Hendrix, so I won't vote.
