Obscure Heavy Psych/Heavy Rock/Proto-Metal

Have both original lps on old vinyl.......lucky to find them a few years back. :)
You're fortunate. YouTube is my only source for obscure music from this era. But, then, I haven't had anything to play vinyl on since the early 80's.

I've been collecting vinyl since I was about 16....went to college at 18 ...then started collecting again in1975 (age 24)when I got a real job.
Always been into prog/ psych/ classic rock and some folk rock and jazz fusion but usually hunted the more obsure bands after 1980 since I had bought most of the reg classic rock earlier in life.
Always had a turntable and 'large speakers' but these days I dont play it that much except the odd week end or if I'm bored. I tend to be lazy and use Audio-Technica head phones thru the laptop....sounds even better that way than my tower speakers...but you dont get the bass thump on your body.

I have quite a few osbscure heavy psych rock and prog things on vinyl and some obscure and even rare things on cd thanks to a friend about 20 years ago who helped me find and even burned many obscure ones straight to cd.
I play mostly prog/classic rock , folk rock, and jazz fusion these days usually from 66-79....though there are a few modern bands I like..

I'm still stuck on playing the same musical playlist (50's - present) that I've been playing for years. Rock (various genres), pop, trance, country, some classical, r&b. Occasionally, I add something new to the rotation of stuff I like. These days, the bands I play the most are Concrete Blonde, The Cranberries, Led Zeppelin, TYA, CCR, ARS, Cross Canadian Ragweed, .38 Special, and Blackhawk. I live in a Seniors-Only condominium now, so we keep the volume low. But I don't have to shovel snow or do yard work anymore. YaY!

You live in Canada I presume. and are 69 yrs old-young. :)
I dont have any Concrete Blonde, Cranberries, Cross Canadian Ragweed (who I thought were Canadian) 38 Special , Blackhawk, or ARS. I do have Zep, CCR and TYA ....never got into the others u mentioned but I tend to be very picky about the bands I like and buy.
We have owned the same home in northwest Indiana for 45 years and sadly have to mow and shovel snow though we have decided to hire it out this winter and yard next summer.
My two favorite bands are King Crimson and the Beatles....but I have many other close favorites in the classic rock and folk rock area.
