1966

Where were you in 1966? Were you in 1966? I was, and I am remembering it more and more since I began this podcast. I was in Madawaska, Maine that year, and lots of things happened, including the beginning of visits to the principal’s office (what a good 1st grader I was!). Music took a leap forward in 1966 – rock bands were beginning to explore what could be done in the studio, and albums took on a new significance. It was the year of Pet Sounds and Revolver – still considered by most as among the best albums of all-time. Aftermath was the first Rolling Stones album with all-original material, and the double album made its debut with Freak Out and Blonde on Blonde.

So set the time machine back 50 years and listen to the Yardbirds, the Count Five, the Rolling Stones, the Byrds, the Beatles, Paul Revere and the Raiders, Buffalo Springfield,the Left Banke, Simon & Garfunkel, the Beach Boys, Frank Zappa & the Mothers of Invention, Wilson Pickett, Otis Redding, Lou Rawls, the Bobby Fuller Four, Bob Dylan, Cream, the Who, and the Kinks.
