I still think Apostrophe by Zappa (with Jack Bruce) is one of the coolest jams ever!

I always thought Les Claypool in "On The Tweak Again" was pretty trippy...

The late Motoharu Yoshizawa. Granted, he played DB and EUB (often through heavy effects) but he was great in a really-out-there way.

Hey Futurebass,
I bet Phil was taking LSD (among other things) before you were even born. You're also the first person I've ever heard say that Phish isn't Psychedelic. This isn't a personal attack on you, I'm just shocked.

This thread is making me hungry -
who's got my mushroom chocolates?
