VA - Looking At Pictures In The Sky, The British Psychedelic Sounds Of 1968

VA - Looking At Pictures In The Sky, The British Psychedelic Sounds Of 1968 [2017] is a three CD collection re-issued with new artwork and revised track-listing. It goes without saying that 1968 doesn't have the same kind of cachet as 1967 - a year that, in musical terms, will always be indelibly associated with the Summer of Love, Sgt. Pepper and the emergence of psychedelia. But although the major players turned away from the excesses of the previous year in favor of a back-to-basics musical approach, there were arguably a greater number of psychedelic records made in 1968 than during the preceding twelve months. Vital, lysergically-inclined 45s emerged from a whole host of younger groups, with Factory, Mike Stuart Span, Fleur de Lys, ire, Barrier, Boeing Duveen, Rupert's People and numerous others all releasing singles that have long been widely regarded by psychedelic collectors as genre classics. All these and more are gathered on Looking At The Pictures In The Sky, which provide a fascinating overview of the group scene in Britain (and Ireland!) in 1968, shining a light on unreleased gems, cult classics, choice album cuts, neglected B-sides and alternative versions. As with it's 1967 equivalent Let's Go Down And Blow Our Minds The British Psychedelic Sounds Of 1967, the four-hour, 78-track anthology Looking At The Pictures In The Sky is housed in a striking clambox that contains a 44 page booklet crammed with biographical information and rare photographs of the featured acts.

This is a fantastic British compilation3 x CD clam shell box set very similar to (Let's Go Down And Blow Our Minds, The British Psychedelic Sounds Of 1967) this is basically volume two of that on the awesome grapefruit label, great tracks from the uk that where all released in 1968 52 years ago.
