Farther O’Blivion [Road Tapes Venue 2]

Psychedelic music is here to stay

Everybody sing along!

Now, folks, as you all know, in every good psychedelic number there's the part where it gets loud and the feedback comes in, and then there's the part where it gets soft and sensitive, and then there's a lot of Echoplex stuff in the background, because it's like the CANYONS OF YOUR MIND, you understand? You know, all that deep, sensitive . . . teen-age stuff

So because this is a regular psychedelic number we don't wanna leave out any aspect of the necessary elements to make it a hit

Whenever somebody has a hit record you know there's always ONE thing on the record that sticks out. It's the part that everybody remembers and that is called THE HOOK of the record. And usually it's the most obvious thing on the record. So, because this is a regular psychedelic number and we want it to be a hit, we're going to show you where the hook is, so you won't forget it. Okay?

Now, this part here, this is "The Hook." Whenever you hear this part your mind will drift back through the cosmos to "The Hook" of the record

Thank you very much for coming to the concert tonight, hope you enjoyed it.
