Shindig Broadcast #149 – ’80s Psych Special

JON ‘MOJO’ MILLS chronicles the effect of ’60s psychedelia on a wide array of music from 1980-90, based on our current epic Qobuz playlist ‘Colliding Minds’

This is something a bit different for us, a focused documentary, of sorts, on the impact of the still recent ’60s psych era on a variety of ’80s acts. If you’d like to hear more of these themed shows please do let us know.
