The Misunderstood - Before The Dream Faded (1965-66)

The Misunderstood - Before The Dream Faded

Another English Garage rock band with psychedelic sound. "Children of the Sun", "I Unseen", "Find A Hidden Door"; this "lost" album has many great records. My favorite must be "I Cried My Eyes Out For You", this song gives me the chills, for some reason.

Band information:

One of the great lost '60s albums. Side one includes all six of the tracks the Misunderstood recorded in England in 1966, with magnificent guitar work and nervy, ambitious (if a bit overtly cosmic) songwriting that combines some of the best aspects of the Jeff Beck-era Yardbirds and Syd Barrett's Pink Floyd. Remember that Pink Floyd and Hendrix had yet to record when these sides were waxed; they aren't derivations, but genuinely innovative and groundbreaking performances. Side two contains seven pre-psychedelic demos from their U.S. garage days in the mid-'60s that, while not nearly as important as their 1966 work, are solid, crunching R&B-soaked rock in the tradition of their chief British influences.
