		It was the invention of the elevator in 1853 by Elisha Graves Otis which made feasible the construction of buildings greater than a few stories, a superstition of the uneducated masses was set as a given: that a building's 13th Floor would be skipped numerically.
		It is hypothesized that the 13th Floor does indeed exist, created by the dread of it in the country's collective unconsciousness.
		What appears to trigger delivery to the 13th Floor is strong disassociation from the accepted cultural milieu, mental abnormalities that tend to place the individual either beneath or above the norm of society.

	13th Floor Elevators
		The Elevators built a reputation on powerful live shows and an independent single featuring a new version of "You're Gonna Miss Me." This diatribe against an errant lover contrasted sharply with the prevailing sentiments of "I Want to Hold Your Hand," and Erickson's vocal veers between grief-filled pleading and psychotic threatening.
		The Elevators were signed to Houston's International Artists label by Lelan Rogers, the brother of rocker-turned-country crooner Kenny Rogers.
		Though "The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators" never connected with a mass audience, it certainly inspired the band's peers.

		13th Floor Elevators : Psychedelic Sounds Of The 13th Floor Elevators
		Roky Erickson 's vocals are strong and compelling throughout, whether he's wailing like some lysergic James Brown or murmuring quietly, and Stacy Sutherland 's guitar leads -- long on melodic invention without a lot of pointless heroics -- are a real treat to hear.
		The 13th Floor Elevators were trailblazers in the psychedelic rock scene, and in time they'd pay a heavy price for exploring the outer edges of musical and psychological possibility, but along the way they left behind a few fine albums, and The Psychedelic Sounds of the 13th Floor Elevators remains a potent delight.

		The 13th Floor Elevators Live album on the International Artists label is not "an extraordinary live album recorded in 1968" as this biography claims, it is a fake "live" album composed of outtakes from 1966 with canned audience sounds added.
		The Elevators didn't return to Texas from California to cut their second album in 1967 as the liner notes say, they returned from California in November of 1966 and cut Easter Everywhere with a new line-up in September of 1967.
		Description/Comments: This CD is drawn from a 13th Floor Elevators reunion concert that took place at the Liberty Lunch in Austin, Texas on June 16th, 1984 before a crowd of about 1000 spectators.

	Splendid Magazine reviews 13th Floor Elevators: Psych-Out
		Though 13th Floor Elevator are one of the most respected and influential bands of the psychedelic era, most people wouldn't know these Texan acid-rock weirdos if a clearly deranged Roky Erickson showed up on their doorstep wielding a chainsaw.
		This Australian release seeks to change all that, though it doesn't cover all the bases quite as thoroughly as other recent offerings.
		As it stands, though, Psych-Out only tells us what we already know: 13th Floor Elevators were ahead of their time, and deeply in need of a good bath and a psychologist.
