I'm curious on why you didn't think it even approached a song. Because it didn't have the mandatory hook, verse, chorus...template? It had an intro, buildup and climax though.

The guy pretty much soloed the whole way through. If you look at it in terms of jazz, it makes more sense (
i.e., soloist and acommpanists), but not when it comes to pop songwriting. That was NOT hooky. I do not dig most contemporary instrumentals, so that is another issue (I really dig Joe Meek, Dick Dale, Duane Eddy,
et al., the occasional Eric Johnson or Joe Satriani song).
Here is an example of a psychedelic pop song that I love:
