THE 13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS
TOMMY HALL, DANNY THOMAS, DAN GALINDO, STACY SUTHERLAND, ROKY ERICKSON
The 13th Floor Elevators were one of the pioneering bands of psychedelic music; many have cited them
as the first true psychedelic rock band, and if they weren't, they certainly predated most of the
San Francisco bands that gave the sound a global audience. The Elevators played a bracing fusion of
garage rock and genre-defying musical exploration powered by Roky Erickson's feral vocals and rhythm guitar,
Stacy Sutherland's concise but agile lead guitar work, and Tommy Hall's amplified jug playing,
the latter of which gave them a sound unlike any other in rock.
The Elevators were also exploring the outer limits of both consciousness and rock & roll in Texas in the early to mid-'60s,
a time and place that wasn't quite ready for them, leading to the myriad problems
that at once fueled their legend and cut down the band before their time

SLEEVE NEAR EX but (please, see pictures and read above description)
On their groundbreaking debut album, the 13th Floor Elevators sometimes sounded as if they were still
learning how to work with the strange beast of their own creation known as psychedelic rock.
But their second set, 1967's Easter Everywhere, found them a great deal more comfortable and confident
with their loose and hypnotically trippy approach. Easter Everywhere doesn't have an out-of-the-box classic
cut like "You're Gonna Miss Me" or "Fire Engine" from The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators,
but in many ways it's a more cohesive and consistent work, and the subtle but effective structures
of the longer tracks grow and develop through repeated listenings, while rockers like
"She Lives (In a Time of Her Own)" and "Levitation" pack a surprisingly visceral punch.
Stacy Sutherland was never a blazing guitar hero, but his concise aural punctuations on the epochal
"Slip Inside This House" and a superb cover of Dylan's "It's All Over Now, Baby Blue" are perfectly
suited to the material. In addition, the rhythm section of Dan Galindo on bass and Danny Thomas on drums
locks these songs into place with confidence and skill...(AllMusic)
