    Default Best Psychedelic/Hippie Band

    I'm gonna beat Gawain to the punch on this one, besides which I think he has overlooked the best musical category for far too long now.

    Anyhow, I won't even bother with suggestions here, aside from the obvious Jefferson Airplane, probably the most influential hippie/psych band ever (and NO, the Beatles don't count! They were far too mainstream to be hippie or psychedelic. Plus they suck. )

    All us men suffer in equal parts, it's our lot in life, and no man goes without a broken heart or a lost love. Like holding your dog as he takes his last breath and dies in your arms, it's a rite of passage. Unavoidable. And honestly, I can't imagine life without that depth of feeling.-Bierut

    I'll just add Jefferson Airplane, as Doc_bean already said the band of bands.

    I've always had a thing for the Ozric Tentacles.

    Being mainstream does not negate being psychedelic.

    Beatles say I.
    Emotion, passions, and desires are, thus peace is not.
    Emotion: you have it or it has you.

    I'll toss Love out there, as no-one has mentioned them yet. Forever Changes is a great psychedelic album.
