Roky Erickson - Two Headed Dog


Sunday time for a classic.

Another rock icon has passed away, Roky Erickson was an American singer-songwriter, harmonica player, and guitarist from Texas. He was a founding member of THE 13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS and a pioneer of the psychedelic rock genre. Erickson died in Austin on May 31, 2019.



Today's tune "Two Headed Dog (Red Temple Prayer)" (produced by The Sir Douglas Quintet's Doug Sahm and inspired by Vladimir Demikhov's 1950s head transplant experiments) was released as a single. This song is by Roky Erickson and the Aliens and appears on the album "Roky Erickson and the Aliens" (1980) and on the compilation Sounds of the Seventies: Punk and New Wave (1993). Enjoy this a catchy little song by Texas musical genius Roky Erickson.
