Is there any good psychedelic country music? Not psychedelic folk, I know about that stuff. I'm looking for something that sounds like it should be sitar but is really a zither. Ideally from the 60s or 70s, but I won't say no if it's modern, it's just more interesting to me if it came out back when country music was seemingly (not really) less experimental. Somehow I feel like it's going to be Jesus music but that's alright with me.

I don't know if you are looking for an intro or more obscure groups.

The Flying Burrito Brothers which should then lead you to Gram Parsons.
Buffalo Springfield,
Crosby Still and Nash
Grateful Dead (well some songs and albums anyway)

Sorry, should have specified. I was looking for obscurities. If possible, closer to the Gram Parsons side of things than those other groups, I don't much like Buffalo Springfield, CSN, or the Dead.
