Another is the debut single by the 13th Floor Elevators called “You’re Gonna Miss Me”. The song was released on January 17, 1966 (though its national release was not until May 1966) and climbed as high as #55 on the Billboard Hot 100. One of the bandmembers, Tommy Hall (who played an instrument called an electric jug) is credited with coining the term “psychedelic rock”, although other rock bands were already referring to themselves as “psychedelic”, such as the Holy Modal Rounders and the Deep.
