This 2017-2025 remaster of Crystal Blue Persuasion and Other Sounds of Today breathes new life into a rare 1969 compilation that epitomizes the era's psychedelic sound. Originally released on the Somerset label, the album is known for its collection of "exploito-psychedelic" tracks, featuring the iconic title cover of Tommy James and the Shondells' hit alongside a lineup of wacked-out acid psych songs characterized by ripping fuzz guitar and trippy vocals.
