Q65 - Afghanistan (1970 Netherlands) | Garage Rock / Psych Rock | Full Vinyl Rip

Youtube took this video down a few weeks ago and I'm putting it back up. Hope it stays. This is Afghanistan, the 1970 album by Dutch rock band Q65. Released on Negram (NELP 075), it captures the group in their later, heavier phase when the original beat sound had shifted into garage rock, blues rock, and early psych. Q65 came out of The Hague scene, the same place that produced bands like The Outsiders, Group 1850, and Shocking Blue, and you can hear that gritty Dutch edge running through this entire record. Youtube pulled this from the platform within 24 hours the last time I posted this, i thought I'd give it a try. Their mid-60s singles were raw and aggressive, but Afghanistan leans more into bluesy riffs, fuzzed-out guitar breaks, and late-60s come-down psych. It is looser and darker than their early beat material, with a few moments that drift into full psychedelic garage territory. The live rock and roll medley on side B is wild and blown out, and the studio tracks on side A show a band stretching out stylistically but still carrying that unmistakable Dutch garage feel. 🎧 This rip comes from my personal 1970 Negram stereo pressing. If you are into Dutch 60s rock, garage psych, or the heavier side of the Nederbeat scene, this album is worth spending time with. 📷 More vinyl on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/vinyl_piper/ 🎧 Full Vinyl Rips playlist: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLj0yF7-9YQ9pEOi1yCUyAZikNmWVdz8Hn 💿 Tracklist 00:00 Injection 05:10 Baby Don't Worry 07:56 I'm Glad 11:41 Nobody Knows You When You're Down And Out 14:51 Please Come Back To Me 19:15 We Are Happy 22:28 Night 27:06 Rock And Roll Medley #Q65 #Afghanistan #Nederbeat #DutchRock #1970Vinyl #Negram #GarageRock #PsychRock #BluesRock #NetherlandsRock #HeavyPsych #VinylRip #RareVinyl #VinylCollector #VinylCommunity #VinylPiper #ObscurePsych
