Forgotten heavy bands from late 60's to early 70's


Have been a fan of hard rock/metal since high school. Always liked the heavy/physcadelic bands equally to the metal bands I grew up with Ozzy-Maiden and Scorpions ect. Recently on Youtube I discovered some heavy/physcadelic bands I was unaware of. 13th Floor Elevators-Five Day Rain-Probe Direction-The Hook and Vahalla. Are these bands albums worth persuing? Feel free to mention any other band that deserves to be heard. Look forward to your responses.

I’ve listened to them since they first came on the scene in the mid - late 60’s and never have heard about them being polarizing. And I certainly disagree with you about their talent. I’ve played in enough 3 piece bands to know that you have to be very talented to do it, much less be successful. But everyone is allowed their opinion.

Elf is another good band. Three very good albums. Jo Jo Gunne also. Catus was very good.
