the psychedelic world of Edie Sedgwick

I just discovered this really excellent band from the 1960′s called the 13th Floor Elevators thanks to Youtube’s ‘related’ technology.  Follow me:

which features the wicked tune “You’re Going to Miss Me Baby” from the afformentioned group.

and now I’m downloading the entire discography of the 13th Floor Elevators here.  And researching the work of Gerard Malanga, Edie’s co-star on the dance floor (who, lets be honest, totally steals the show).

And now you’re probably gonna listen, too.

This, my friends, is how the internet works.
