Taking it's title from a song by Blossom Toes which closes this double vinyl and subtitled “A Compendium of British Psychedelia 1966-1969”, this is treasure chest of the eccentric British take on psychedelic music, more Edwardian tea-room than hippie crash pad.
It's the left-field compilation for those who like very early Pink Floyd and The Move, and have The Crazy World of Arthur Brown album, that excellent All Kinds of Highs, Sixties Psychedelic Pop collection and the Stones' Their Satanic Majesties Request.
Because this is not available on streaming services we've offered a little sampler of the first of the four sides of vinyl here as a teaser.
But it is the double album you need.
It is stylishly packaged with delights from Dantalian's Chariot, Tintern Abbey, the Mirage, Barclay James Harvest, Spencer Davis Group, Plastic Penny, Blossom Toes . . .
You probably didn't know you needed to hear Paper Blitz Tissue until now.

You can order this album through Southbound Records here.
