Sip on this narcoleptic soul brew – Junior Parker’s psychedelic molasses rendition of the Beatles “Tomorrow Never Knows.” One of three Beatles covers found on his 1971 LP, Love ain’t Nothin’ But A Business Goin‘ On, Parker died of a brain tumor the year of its release just shy of his fortieth birthday.

The version of “Taxman” on this record is just as good!
psychedelic molasses for the cerebral hemispheres indeeed. First heard on the brilliant drunkard transmission 10. I want a copy of this LP badly. That is tragic about Junior Parker dying from a brain tumor.
Hi, I love your blog and your mixes! Coincidentally I posted the same track on Pie in the sky, a map of psychedelic music from all over the world: http://pie-in-the-sky.org/2016/09/18/junior-parker-tomorrow-never-knows/
I just thought you might like what I’m doing! Wanna switch mixtapes or something? Have a sunny sunday, Oliver
Great album. I always wondered who the guitar player was. Anybody know?
