"Greatest" pre-1970 psychedelic songs

My good friend, (the late) Dennis Lanting on guitar, with Bloomsbury People.
Considered by some to be "pioneers of psychedelic music" on their album with MGM Record Company.
All original compositions.
The album was released in 1970, but I assure you that the material was created before that time. (I was there, and I remember when it happened).

Anything from The Piper at the Gates of Dawn.
Think I'm gonna use this thread to build me a playlist tonight...
Yes, good point.
But the Airplane's version is awesome.
So many good ones, but here are a few of my favs
The Ballad by Jefferson Airplane (bass&drum jam will melt your face off)
Pat's Song by Country Joe and the Fish (dissonance to turn your brain inside out)
Doin that Rag by the Grateful Dead (just good classic psych)

I was just about to say exactly that as I scrolled down and down with no mention of it.
Prototypical maybe but not really improved upon by the followers.

Here’s another one I really like:
I wanted to add Psychedelic Shack by the Temptations, but I guess that came out in 1970, not before.

Pink Floyd - Careful with That Axe, Eugene
Recorded in November 1968 and released as the B-side to the single "Point Me at the Sky", and featured on the 1971 compilation album Relics. It was re-recorded for the 1970 film Zabriskie Point, retitled as Come In Number 51, Your Time Is Up. (Wikipedia)
