Alexys – Self-Titled (1966) | Dreamy Folk Rock & Light Pop Psych | Dot Records Full LP Rip

This is Alexys — the only full-length LP by Northwest singer-songwriter Alexys Guitar, released in 1966 on Dot Records (DLP 3713). Her voice is full of character, and the songs land somewhere between folk rock, light psych, and orchestral pop, with just enough of that moody, 1960s West Coast undercurrent. https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0yF7-9YQ9pEOi1yCUyAZikNmWVdz8Hn 🎧 This vinyl rip comes from my personal collection. It’s a super clean copy of this hard-to-find album, a forgotten piece of Pacific Northwest music history. Alexys grew up in Sumner/Puyallup, Washington, same area I’m from. She was the daughter of Bonnie Guitar (google Bonnie), and while this was her only album under the Alexys name, she opened for The Yardbirds, wrote several of these songs herself, and later fronted a psych band called Peece, based out of Maple Valley. For this LP, she traveled to Hollywood and, through her mom’s connections, recorded with top-tier session players — including Glen Campbell. The result is a polished yet emotional record that deserves rediscovery. If you're into Linda Perhacs, Bobbie Gentry, or early Joni Mitchell, you’ll want to hear this. Also recommended for fans of obscure folk rock on Dot, Tetragrammaton, or Capitol Custom from the late ’60s. 📝 Want to learn more?
