The psychedelic sounds of Toulouse
There's a psychedlic music exhibition at the Médiathèque in Toulouse this month and into June entitled Psychédélisme des Usa à l'Europe. It consists of a vast array of Magazines, LPs, 7 inch single covers, sixties artefacts and the nicknacks of the interplanetary explorers of yore. It's a fascinating exhibit to trawl. I can't claim to know all the musicians represented, but I am partial to a bit of Stones, a smidgen of 13th Floor Elevators, a spoonful or two of the Velvet Underground and a dash of The Seeds. If you're in town, pop along. I think I'll be going again and again until the exhibit closes towards the end of June. Full exhibit slideshow here and a dollop of The Seeds below.
The exhibition includes film projections on sundays 25 Mai, 1 Juin, 22 Juin at 3 pm in the afternoon. Could be worth checking out if you're in town.
