This is one of my favorite songs ever and it's from the early days of Kenny Rogers career when he had a band called Kenny Rogers and the First Edition. It's become popular in recent years from it's use in the movie The Big Lebowski.

I don't know what they called this genre of music in 1968 when it was a top ten hit but it definitely has some psychedelic appeal to it.  As a matter of fact, that was the theme of it's use in The Big Lebowski.

Check out this performance from The Smother's Brothers Show in the late 60's.

And you have to see the scene from the Coen Brother's movie The Big Lebowski, and try not to miss the weird cameo from a Saddam Hussein look-alike.
