Donovan was there, he hung out with Dylan, Joan Baez and listened to the Jefferson Airplane before anyone else had. He was at the apartment with Dylan and the Beatles, at THE party that changed music forever. (See Scorcese's "No Direction Home"). Herein are psychedelic fairy tales designed to calm down bad head states. Music exploded with the Summer of Love, this classic was first, more than a year before that, recorded '65 and '66, before the whole thing started. Much of it deals with troubador ... Read More

Well, here's a blast from the past... I've owned the original album for many years (since it came out in 1966, in fact), so was intrigued with the opportunity to pick up a sonically cleaned-up version with no fewer than seven bonus tracks.

I note that this has been remastered and has additional songs, but the original vinyl of Donovan's 'Sunshine Superman' is one of the most enjoyable listening experiences in my collection. Donovan was an original, and yet you hear elements of the Beatles and Harry Nilsson in his music as well. It would be classified as psychedilic folk/rock. Yes, the songs play like one long drug trip, but the imagery is extraordinary and allows the listener to legally and vicariously see what some of these sixties musicians ... Read More
