Description

Odessey and Oracle (Orchid Coloured Vinyl)Odessey and Oracle was one of the flukiest (and best) albums of the 1960s, and one of the most enduring long players to come out of the entire British psychedelic boom, mixing trippy melodies, ornate choruses, and lush Mellotron sounds with a solid hard rock base. But it was overlooked completely in England and barely got out in America (with a big push by Al Kooper, who was then a Columbia Records producer); and it was neglected in the U. S. until

Odessey and Oracle was one of the flukiest (and best) albums of the 1960s, and one of the most enduring long players to come out of the entire British psychedelic boom, mixing trippy melodies, ornate choruses, and lush Mellotron sounds with a solid hard rock base.

But it was overlooked completely in England and barely got out in America (with a big push by Al Kooper, who was then a Columbia Records producer); and it was neglected in the U.S. until the single "Time of the Season," culled from the album, topped the charts nearly two years after it was recorded, by which time the group was long disbanded.

Ironically, at the time of its recording in the summer of 1967, permanency was not much on the minds of the bandmembers. Odessey and Oracle was intended as a final statement, a bold last hurrah, having worked hard for three years only to see the quality of their gigs decline as the hits stopped coming. The results are consistently pleasing, surprising, and challenging: "Hung Up on a Dream" and "Changes" are some of the most powerful psychedelic pop/rock ever heard out of England, with a solid rhythm section, a hot Mellotron sound, and chiming, hard guitar, as well as highly melodic piano. "Changes" also benefits from radiant singing. "This Will Be Our Year" makes use of trumpets (one of the very few instances of real overdubbing) in a manner reminiscent of "Penny Lane"; and then there's "Time of the Season," the most well-known song in their output and a white soul classic.

Not all of the album is that inspired, but it's all consistently interesting and very good listening, and superior to most other psychedelic albums this side of the Beatles' best and Pink Floyd's early work. Indeed, the only complaint one might have about the original LP is its relatively short running time, barely over 30 minutes, but even that's refreshing in an era where most musicians took their time making their point.

Energy at 10 calories and 0 sugar
Flavor Name: Assorted Flavor Variety, Size: 12 Fl Oz (Pack of 12)
I’ve been hooked on Celsius for a while now and this variety pack is the best way to buy them. You get the flavors shown in the picture. My personal favorite is the orange, but I like them all. Celsius has 200 mg of caffeine per can which is a lot. But that’s exactly what I need on certain days! Only 10 calories and 0 sugar so good if you are watching those things. I like that Celsius includes B vitamins (which help convert food into energy) and other healthy things. Feels like to gives me stable energy. The price is fair on its own, but if you catch it when Amazon is running a sale, it’s a no-brainer. Stock up when you see it discounted. I definitely do.

Good price for a nice variety pack. The assortment of flavors is solid, and I like that it includes both carbonated and non-carbonated options. Good value overall.

Love these!

This is my absolute favorite energy drink! Perfect way to start a hike as it boosts my energy and my metabolism at the same time making the hike even more of a worth it workout. Nice skinny can so it doesn’t take up too much room in a backpack. I have yet to had a flavor that I did not like. Love them!
