Alice in Wonderland | Lewis Carroll's Alice's Adventures in Wonderland and Through the Looking-Glass, and What Alice Found There proved to be great inspiration for British songwriters and rock artists in the late sixties and early seventies. The Strange Brew Podcast explores the greatest examples of this special genre. The Strange Brew is bored sitting on the riverbank when he notices a talking, clothed White Rabbit with a watch run past. He follows it down a rabbit hole when suddenly he falls a long way to a curious hall with many locked doors of all sizes. He finds a small key to a door too small for her to fit, but through which he sees an beautiful garden. He then discovers a bottle labelled "Drink Me", the contents of which cause him to shrink too small to reach the key. A cake with "Listen To Me" on it causes him to hear a psychedelic journey lasting over an hour featuring some of the finest rock and pop records ever recorded.
