LA RECENSIONE
Incisive psychotic reaction with nine original tracks and two covers... but what covers!!... the WHO!! one of which is even "MY GENERATION".
This is, in summary, the meteor that sparked the psychedelic light of the entire 1967... one of the most important of the whole '60s garage sound. The entire album and especially the leading single that gives it its title (PSYCHOTIC REACTION) is a great example of psycho beat. Guitars prominently featured, sound hardened compared to many contemporary bands... a CLASSIC.
Personally, one of the foundational texts of psychedelic rock.

04 Psychotic Reaction (03:08)
I feel depressed, I feel so bad
'Cause you're the best girl that I've ever had
I can't get your love, I can't get a fraction
Oh, little girl, psychotic reaction
And it feels like this!
I feel so lonely night and day
I can't get your love, I must stay away
Well, I need you, girl, by my side
Oh, little girl, would you like to take a ride now?
I can't get your love, I can't get satisfaction
Oh, little girl, psychotic reaction

It is not the mastery and knowledge of the instruments that make this group great... but the simplicity of execution and the freshness of intent.
It’s thanks to albums like this that all doors were smashed open, and these youngsters deserve credit for the great leap towards the new that was arriving!

Dirty, raw, yet very catchy at the same time, these Count Five are really cool.
The little panning tricks are noteworthy, listening on headphones literally makes your head spin!
