March 20, 2022 Record of the Day

The 13th Floor Elevators never really had any hits but the Texas band that formed in the mid 60’s still has a following today. Psychedelic music was what they lived for but drugs were their downfall. Member Rory Erickson was charged with marijuana possession in 1969, followed by three years at the Rusk Hospital for the criminally insane. Their most valuable album was released by International Artists in 1967. An original stereo copy of “Easter Everywhere” can get you $500.00. An original mono copy is worth up to $1,000.00 today.
