So I'll be making some suggestions for an album cover, and the instructions from the band says "Think psychedelia, flowers, and more psychedelia." Naturally, I got very excited about this, because this basically is my dream job.
But I think I need some inspiration. Anyone got some good links to psychedelic design examples?
Think psychedelia, flowers, and more psychedelia...

no links of the top of my head, but a lot of the 70's stuff was influenced by art deco - I'd avoid the fractal pattern bollox - it's a bit tired...

These guys designed a lot of classic LP covers in the LSD daisy age.

...scroll down till you see the big black buttons that read 'fillmore' or 'avalon' posters.
Hope that helps

The Rolling Stones had a compilation album called Flowers. Look up Country Joe and the Fish, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Kelly Mouse Studios, Fillmore Concert posters.
I envy your job. That's a great one.
