Echo!
That 60's giant chamber reverb is the stone of this soup. The guitars mostly chime Byrdsily, low in the mix, letting the sound come on in soft, round holistic waves. There's the occasional decent solo, but this is a real split from the other blues-oriented bands of the time, where musicianship was the focus. This is thinner and more about feel and flash than PLAYING, for better or worse. I'll bet fans of Cream, say, hated this.
Also, I might hate those vocals.
What it does though in terms of psychedelic atmosphere, it does fine, but I'd rather just listen to The Small Faces or a band that really knows how to PLAY 3/5
