The Mystic Tide were one of the many New York garage-bands that cut only
a handful of singles in the mid 1960s. Formed in 1964 and led by a wild singer
and guitarist, Joe Docko, they boasted two anthemic songs
(Frustration, 1966, and Running Through The Night) and especially a
cosmic jam, Psychedelic Journey (1966), that bridges early Pink Floyd and
early Velvet Underground.
Their repertory is compiled on Solid Ground (Distortions, 1994).

I Mystic Tide furono una delle tante garage-band di New York che negli
anni 60 produsse soltanto qualche 45 giri. Guidati dal bizzarro Joe Docko,
cantante e chitarrista, il gruppo vantava due canzoni inneggianti
(Frustration, Running Through The Night) e una jam cosmica, Psychedelic
Journey, che unisce i Pink Floyd e i Velvet Underground degli esordi.
Il loro repertorio e' raccolto in Solid Ground (Distortions, 1994).
