13th Floor Elevators - 1966 - Out Of Order - Live At The Avalon Ballroom
The 13th Floor Elevators were an American rock band from Austin, Texas formed by guitarist and vocalist Roky Erickson, electric jug player Tommy Hall, and guitarist Stacy Sutherland, which existed from 1965 to 1969. During their career, the band released four LPs and seven 45s for the International Artists record label. The 13th Floor Elevators found some commercial and artistic success in 1966-67, before dissolving amid legal troubles and drug use in late 1968. As one of the first psychedelic bands, their contemporary influence has been acknowledged by 1960s musicians such as Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Peter Albin of Big Brother and the Holding Company, and Chris Gerniottis of Zakary Thaks. The Avalon Ballroom is a music venue in the Polk Gulch neighborhood of San Francisco, California at 1268 Sutter Street, on the north side, one building east of the corner of Van Ness Avenue. The space operated from 1966 to 1968, and reopened in 2003. 01 - Everybody Needs Somebody To Love 02 - Before You Accuse Me 03 - You Don't Know 04 - I'm Gonna Love You Too 05 - You Really Got Me 06 - Splash 07 - Fire Engine 08 - Roll Over Beethoven 09 - The Word 10 - Monkey Island 11 - Roller Coaster LINK
