THE 13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS
TOMMY HALL, BENNY THURMAN, JOHN WALTON, STACY SUTHERLAND, ROKY ERICKSON
The 13th Floor Elevators were one of the pioneering bands of psychedelic music; many have cited them
as the first true psychedelic rock band, and if they weren't, they certainly predated most of the
San Francisco bands that gave the sound a global audience. The Elevators played a bracing fusion of
garage rock and genre-defying musical exploration powered by Roky Erickson's feral vocals and rhythm guitar,
Stacy Sutherland's concise but agile lead guitar work, and Tommy Hall's amplified jug playing,
the latter of which gave them a sound unlike any other in rock.
The Elevators were also exploring the outer limits of both consciousness and rock & roll in Texas in the early to mid-'60s,
a time and place that wasn't quite ready for them, leading to the myriad problems
that at once fueled their legend and cut down the band before their time

Did the 13th Floor Elevators invent psychedelic rock? Aficionados will be debating that point for decades,
but if Roky Erickson and his fellow travelers into inner space weren't there first, they were certainly close
to the front of the line, and there are few albums from the early stages of the psych movement
that sound as distinctively trippy -- and remain as pleasing -- as the group's groundbreaking debut,
