jazz before the 60's all sounds hokey. it only escapes that once the modality, atonality, suppressed harmonic function, etc. were introduced.
a lot of the 1967 psychedelic stuff completely fails to be psychedelic to me and more generally sounds tinny, nasal and horrible. most of it either sounds like americans being square and thinking they're getting freaky or british public school boys thinking monty python's funny and making music that reflects that. i've grown up with music where synth pads and samplers, etc. can create lush, immersive sound worlds so stuff from that era can't really cut it. who needs syd barret when you've got young thug?
this may well be dissensus heresy but a lot of dub from the seventies is wasted on me because the chords and melodies are too sweet and bubblegum. the idea of a music comprising of bass, drums and snatches of other instrumentation drenched in reverb and delay evokes something far more emotionally complex than the chords and melodies let it be.
