TIMOTHY LEARY THE PSYCHEDELIC EXPERIENCE (Rare 1966 US 1st press 2 Track vinyl LP . A fascinating and highly collectible original issue of The Psychedelic Experience, the spoken-word album inspired by Timothy Leary, Ralph Metzner and RichardAlpert’s influential 1960s guidebook. Issued at the height of the counterculture movement, this LP presents a series of meditative readings and consciousness-expanding passages, designed to mirror the structure and symbolism of The Tibetan Book of the Dead. Housed in its evocative period sleeve—brimming with that unmistakable late-’60s underground aesthetic—this is a true artefact of the era, capturing the experimental, exploratory spirit that shaped the decade’s cultural revolution. The vinyl features deep, resonant narration over atmospheric sound beds, offering a unique glimpse into the mind-expanding philosophies that informed the psychedelic movement. The textured and pasted heavy cardstock picture sleeve carries minimal shelf/agewear but comes with a 4 page insert whilst the vinyl shows little to no evidence of previous play. A rare and compelling piece for collectors of psychedelic history, beat literature, and counterculture memorabilia—an essential addition to any serious archive of the era BRX601).
