Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars Thorazine please!.......2005-08-03

Considered one of the most psychedelic albums ever released, 'Cottonwoodhill' is brilliant with amazing sound effects, propulsive keyboards(on the dominating namesake track 'brainticket pt.1 and 2),special vocal effects, great guitar work and a very demented monologue that puts you at the heart of the psychedelic experience. This album, recorded in 1971, accomplishes where others have tried and failed ('Anthem of The Sun','After Bathing At Baxter's')i.e. to record an acid trip. Whether by improved production techniques or more inspired performance, this is psychedelic music at its best!

4 out of 5 stars Brainticket - 'Cottonwoodhill' (Hallelujah).......2004-08-12

I'd rate it 4 1/2 stars.I heard about this reissue LONG before landing down a copy of it.Was originally released in 1971,but for reason(s) unknown I,personally like their follow up to this record,'Psychonaut'('72) a tad better.'Cottonwoodhill' is said to be a true krautrock classic that can make one's third eye cry tears of acid.I won't disagree with that one bit.In my opinion,Brainticket in general appears to be part kraut,part neo-psychedelic.A great genre if you ask me.The tracks that I dug the most were "Black Sand" and the band's namesake "Brainticket,Part 2".Joel Vandroogenbroeck's organ playing and Dawn Muir's stellar vocals seem to work well together as Brainticket more than succeeds to take it's listener's to another level of tripsville.One that's rarely visited anymore these days.Bet Tim Leary would've tripped MANY times to this record.Way-out cover.
