H.P. Lovecraft




          It's the group, not the author.  That's why I'm listing it under "H".  Mystical, magical, and psychedelic-- H.P. Lovecraft  released a couple of very fine albums in the late 60s.  They eventually reformed under various incarnations, but I'm not familiar with that music.   It is the music of those first two albums that puts this group high on my list of dream music.

           This is some fine music to settle back and get lost in.  The first two albums are available as a compilation on a single disc.   Some very cool and spacey music--a real trip into dreamland.

Perfect companion music to the dreamy nightmare works of the author, too.

The album cover brings back so many memories. the music itself not so much.

Have you ever heard of a group called "Tyrannosaurus Rex" and they had one hit "Romany Soup"? They must have lived next door to this group.

Thanks for the visits and comments.

Susan -- Yes, I remember T-Rex. Don't remember too much of their music since I didn't own any of their albums and don't know that any of my friends had any either. It was all music from an eclectic era of arts.

Trippy! I think the Old Gentleman would have liked the intro.
