Your Favorite ''60''s Music

Tue Feb 03, 2004 2:17 am by Locutov

Again a thread by me
Not about something sientific
I know there is a thread about music before 1980 but this is specific for the '60's

But now on to the question: namely What is your favorite '60s music??

Mine are By far:
Jimi Hendrix: Voodoo Chile (both versions), All along the watchTower, Hey Joe, Purple Haze, Star Spangled banner, Crosstown traffic
The Doors: Riders on The storm, This is the end
Canned Heat: On the road again
Jefferson Airplane: White Rabbit, Somebody to Love,
The Box Tops: Give me a ticket for an Aeroplane
Melanie: Ruby tuesday

This is about it for now
If you have any listing of good ´60s Music, please feel fee to list it here

Nice choices there Locutus....personally I'd probably throw in a little motown and northern soul though too. I think, sorry - I KNOW, that if I had been a child of the 60s I would have been a complete hippy....White Rabbit, Riders on the Storm etc etc....but I reckon I would have been on a happy trip with a little Aretha, Marvin and Stevie too...

Oh yeah, Aretha Franklin
I only know respect, or at least thats the one I heard from her
I know she has had many more a hit
but Marvin Gaye with "I heard it through the grapevine" and his duet (I don't know with who) "it takes two"
as for other soul, What do you think of Martha and the Vandelas with "Nowhere to run"?

I also love Credence Clearwater Revival's "Fortunate son"
But Steppenwolf with "Born To be Wild" and especially "Magic Carpet Ride" rocks to high heaven, or Joe Cocker on Woodstock with "How does it help if I sing" (don't know if its the real song title)
But I also Like Janis Joplin with "Piece of My heart".

I love Martha too, "nowhere to run" absolutely rocks...anything like that really...early funk etc.

Creedance Clearwater Revival's version of "heard it through the grapevine" is good too...although I think that came in the early 70s. I love Janis Joplin and Joe Cocker too....have you seen the full Woodstock film? Its awesome and I highly recommend picking it up. You get 3 different perspectives in split screen - the bands (obviously), the crowd (people coming up/coming down etc) and most interestingly the local residents - its easy to forget how the concert ruined an otherwise ordinary small community. Fantastic footage, all the greats are on there and you get a real feel for the atmosphere.

Once upon a time. To be cool meant that you'd seen the movie at least twice. To be ultimately cool, you were there. But if you were there, you'd be an old fogey by now... even if an ultimately cool one.

Woodstock, the place, has been a tourist trap since the early 70s. Much as the locals will refuse to admit it - mainly because many were not included in the gain - the concert brought economic benefit to the community ... and a bunch of new in-comers from the City and elsewhere, flower children in the beginning, later on arts and crafts types and artists as well.

Just to be acliche - but he Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Kinks, The Who, Jimi Hendrix and the beginnings of Hard Rock (Deep Purple, Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin all started in the late 60's). I also like Pink Floyd and the Moody Blues. Gerry and the Pacemakers - that's about it.

I love pink floyd too, but they didn't really do anything decent until the 70s...*ducks* ooh contraversial!
