Artists discuss the 13 records that shaped their lives

12. The 13th Floor ElevatorsThe Psychedelic Sounds Of The 13th Floor Elevators

I love them because they were very innovative. They mic’d up kettles, and that sort of thing. They had kettles boiling etc, and they were also very dire, deeply psychedelic. They mic’d up things around the kitchen. They are amazing. The music’s very beautiful.
