13th Floor Elevator (Eye Psych) by ixrid

The 13th Floor Elevators were an American rock band from Austin, Texas formed by guitarist and vocalist Roky Erickson, electric jug player Tommy Hall, and guitarist Stacy Sutherland, which existed from 1965 to 1969. During their career, the band released four LPs and seven 45s for the International Artists record label. The 13th Floor Elevators found some commercial and artistic success in 1966-67, before dissolving amid legal troubles and drug use in late 1968. As one of the first psychedelic bands, their contemporary influence has been acknowledged by 1960s musicians such as Billy Gibbons of ZZ Top, Peter Albin of Big Brother and the Holding Company, and Chris Gerniottis of Zakary Thaks. Their debut 45 “You’re Gonna Miss Me”, a national Billboard #55 hit in 1966, was featured on the 1972 compilation Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965-1968, which is considered vital in the history of garage rock and the development of punk rock. 13th, floor elevator

The bands most recognizable member... Roky Erickson (featured on this t-shirt)... has had a long sordid history of drug use and metal instability... unfortunately this became a regular occurrence in rock music over the years... as other massively talented and well known musicians such as Peter Green from Fleetwood Mac and Syd Barrett from Pink Floyd both wandered down the same unfortunate path. What makes Rocky Erickson and the 13th Floor Elevators so special above these other bands (besides his use of the Gibson ES-335 Guitar, later made famous by Alvin Lee of Ten Years After)... is the time period and the long reverberating aftershock of their presence... they came on the scene in 1965 with their hit song 'You're Gonna Miss Me' (featured in the movie John
