Steve Hillage – L (1976)

I first heard tracks from this album on John Peel's BBC World Service show and distinctly remember the revolutionary broadcaster describing Hillage as a "hippie guitarist".

Produced by Todd Rundgren whose band Utopia supports Hillage on most of the tracks, this is acid rock that gets pretty mind-bending on occasion and includes a trippy take of Donovan's 'Hurdy Gurdy Man'.
