1968 single by the Amboy Dukes
"Journey to the Center of the Mind" is a song released by the Amboy Dukes in June 1968.[1] It reached No.16 on the Billboard charts in 1968[2] and No.19 in Canada.[3]
Original recording
"Journey to the Center of the Mind" featured a psychedelic rock,[4] garage rock,[5] hard rock[6] and acid rock sound.[7] It features lyrics written by the Dukes` second guitarist Steve Farmer,[8] and melody written by Ted Nugent.[9][10] The song was recorded with a higher budget than their past work. During the recording there was considerable tension amongst the band members, and a few of them quit after the album was released, in the summer of 1968. The single helped define the psychedelic era as it peaked at No.16 on the Billboard charts.[11][12]
Other versions
The song was covered by Slade (as "Ambrose Slade") in 1969 on the album Beginnings, by The Ramones in 1994 on Acid Eaters[13] and by Sun City Girls in 2001 on Libyan Dream. It was included in the compilation album Nuggets: Original Artyfacts from the First Psychedelic Era, 1965–1968, on the 1998 CD reissue as a bonus track.
Ted Nugent remade the song on his 2007 album Love Grenade.[citation needed]
The lyrics are generally thought to be referring to drug use.[14][15][16][17]
