13th Floor Elevators - You're Gonna Miss Me

      
 
 Demented noise from Texas punk legends the Thirteenth Floor Elevators;
 originally recorded by leader/legend Roky Erickson's earlier group, the
 Spades, whose version is available on the _Epitaph For A Legend_ comp.
 
 Incidentally, the 13FE were the first group to refer to their own music
 as 'psychedelic'; the full title of their debut is _The Psychedelic
 Sounds of the Thirteenth Floor Elevators_, released a couple months
 before the Blues Magoos' better-known _Psychedelic Lollipop_.
