A rare time capsule from the birth of psychedelic rock is finally being unveiled: The 13th Floor Elevators – Live at Houston Music Theatre '67. Captured during the height of the band’s creative fire, this extraordinary live recording transports listeners to 1967, when Roky Erickson’s haunting vocals, Tommy Hall’s hypnotic electric jug, and Stacy Sutherland’s jagged guitar helped shape the sound of a generation. Recorded in Houston at a fever pitch of cultural and musical revolution, this set presents the Elevators in raw, unrestrained form. Unlike their studio recordings, the performance brims with urgent immediacy — the interplay of feedback, reverb, and Erickson’s impassioned delivery comes alive in a way that only the stage could allow.  

For longtime fans and newcomers alike, this record is more than just a live document — it’s an essential piece of rock history. The band’s combination of garage grit and visionary psychedelia redefined what music could be in the late Sixties, and this recording captures that lightning in a bottle. With remastered audio ensuring every fuzz-drenched note resonates with clarity, Live at Houston Music Theatre '67 offers a rare opportunity to experience the Elevators in their prime. This album cements their legacy not just as pioneers of Texas psychedelia, but as one of the most original and fearless bands in rock history.
