S5E237 - 13th Floor Elevators 'Easter Everywhere' with Paul Mahern

<p>When this week's guest, producer/audio engineer <strong>Paul Mahern</strong>, discovered <strong>'Easter Everywhere'</strong> by Texas psychedelic rock band <strong>13th Floor Elevators</strong> in the early 80s, he was a punk rock loving musician (Indianapolis Indiana's Zero Boys) looking to expand his musical horizons. He got all that he bargained for and more with this wonderfully dense, expansive and mind-blowing record by a band - led by <strong>Tommy Hall</strong> and <strong>Roky Erickson</strong> - that went all-in on their spirituality-through-psychedelics ideals.<br /> <em>"You're moving, keep climbing...leave your body behind."</em></p> <p>Songs featured in this episode: <em>I've Got Levitation (live, 1967)</em> - 13th Floor Elevators; <em>Vicious Circle</em> - Zero Boys; <em>Forecast</em> - Diane Coffee (feat.
