[Cboldt]

That intro, "A preachment dear friends, you're about to receive ..." comes from a Red Ingle and His Natural Seven: Cigareetes, Whuskey and Wild, Wild Women. Not exactly psychedelic, but funny.

[Dysart]

Came on the scene way too late to be a hippie but I think 70's music was the best musical era. I've been listening to Van Morrison station quite a bit on Pandora lately and heard this song for the first time only a few days ago, and it's gem. Morrison is a musical poet and sadly overlooked by many. Their loss, though.
