Here are seven singles (a & b sides) from seven U.S. groups. Almost all are non-LP. I've included the links to other releases from these bands - and there are quite a few. The link for the 7"s is at the end of this post.
Burning Rain - Climb To The Sky/Crystal Colord Cloud This was released in 1990 on Rockadelic in 500 copies. Psychedelia in the finest 13 Floor Elevators tradition. Burning Rain from Texas have at least 6 LPs, one of them you can find in the Teen Trash series (soon to be re-posted).
After
the great Battle of the Garages post here's another one from Voxx
records. Includes 8 bands from the middle and eastern US, with a bit
harder garage sound than the previous compilations. Most of them were
active in the 80s, and a few (Dwarves, Cynics, Time Beings) 'till today.
From Voxx press release: Compilation
of bands from the eastern part of the country who arrived just a bit
too late for our Battle of the Garages series. Compiled by Timothy
Gassen (Marshmallow Overcoat & Knights of Fuzz author) and
featuring some of our most gloriously colorful, exotic, oriental
artwork,

The legendary 1968 US psych album . A fine example of the West Coast psychedelic flower power sound with male and female harmonies, beautiful fuzz guitars and very trippy keyboard work. Excellent originals(pay attention to the amazing "If In Swimming") are combined with covers of "Catch The Wind", "The Times They Are A-Changing" and "Let’s Get Together". A 'must-have' for West Coast fans !
Review from the AMG:
One
of the most unique albums of the 1970s, R. Stevie Moore's debut
long-player is an uncategorizable mess that somehow keeps from falling
apart completely, kind of like a one-man band version of the Beatles' White Album
cross-pollinated with late-1960s Frank Zappa at his most antic. Yet
just as the album seems hopelessly self-indulgent and bizarre, Moore
suddenly veers into some of the sweetest and catchiest pop songs of the
pre-punk '70s. That dichotomy is what makes Phonography
special. Recorded in bits and pieces over the course of two years of
living room sessions, with Moore playing and singing every part,
barring the tambourine on the Soft Machine-like

most experimental and artistically successful album of all. It was a

My name is Paul Carey. Back in the '80s (May 1984 to February 1988 specifically) I was the lead singer for The Untold Fables. The other Untold Fables were Jon Niederbrach on guitar, Robert Butler (later of The Miracle Workers) on bass, and Paul Sakry on drums. Although we were mainly associated with the mid-'80s LA Psychedelic/Garage revival scene that grew out of a club called The Rave Up, and later moved to Greg Shaw's Cavern Club, our music also included strong influences from '70s Punk and '50s Rhthym & Blues.
Our first release, a remake of "I Try" by The Young Tyrants, was f... Read more »

curiosity going about the music of one of the most creative period of
music history (1966-1974). The selection has been focused on acid-rock,

The Dark Cellars were formed in June of 1984 near a graveyard for the mentally insane at positively 13 o'clock (actually it was Newtonville, but doesn't matter now). - from the liner notes.
New England garage/psych band, sharing members with the whole local garage scene (Keene Highland Klan, Hopelessly Obscure, Johnny & The Jumper Cables, Four Commandments and the rest Stanton Park groups). Aram Heller (owner of Stanton Park recs and member of Hopelessly Obscure) is on guitar and keyboards in these recordings, and Bryn Carlson (who played with almost every Boston band in the 80s) is on drums. This LP, released in 1986 on Alien Cactus Records (ACR THORN 001) comes from the deepest six-o psyche and includes some real killers, as the instrumental Revolution #2, which, if doesn't get you on your feet, there's a strong possibillity that you're dead.
