Today, I bring you a lovely bit of English psychedelia from the improbably named Dave Dee, Dozy, Beaky, Mick &amp; Tich, entitled &#8220;The Sun Goes Down.&#8221;  I have little to share with you about this band, other than the fact that they were not necessarily known as a &#8220;psychedelic&#8221; band per se &#8212; they were more famous for pop hits on the UK charts, such as&#8230; such as&#8230; hell I don&#8217;t know, and don&#8217;t care to find out.  <\/p>\n<p>But here they are in full, acid-drenched flower, sounding even more like the Dukes Of Stratosphear than the Dukes did&#8230; or something.  I hope you enjoy this track as much as I did after finding it in the possession of a 70 year-old woman in rural Maryland, who had no use for it.  It calls to mind a question, however:  for those of you who ever indulged in the use of psychedelic substances &#8212; did you have a preferred soundtrack to your visits to the Land Of Little Horses?  For those of you (like me) who were always too chicken to indulge:  did you ever think there might be a piece of music that would provide a suitable soundtrack?  Please share &#8212; we&#8217;re all friends here; let&#8217;s mellow out together.<\/p>\n<p>I look forward to your responses.<\/p>\n<p>HVB<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Sun Goes Down Greetings, fans of music that the world inexplicably wants to throw away!
