pemberton 15 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 I love all of the above especially soul,anything 60sI think i'm alone here but I do not care for the Beetles. I didn't care too much for the Beatles when they first came onto the scene, they knocked my hero of his perch, but he soon came back, as the years have passed and I really have taken the time to listen to some of the Beatle songs, I've got to like them, but still not as much as my mate - The King! !fly!

Bip 88 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 !rulez! Sorry here i go again, Elvis no, never really did anything for me. Beatles same again couldn't understand what the fuss was all about...Jan & Dean, Beach Boys now they turned my wheel..Ok before anybody else points it out the Beach Boys sang alot of Jan & deans original recordings and they never went surfing or drag racing. What made them good for me was they reflected the times and my feelings back in those heady days of my youth. She'll have Fun Fun Fun til her daddy takes her T bird away..

rob237 89 Posted January 31, 2006 Report Share Posted January 31, 2006 Beach Boys and Mama's & Papa's have been permanent passengers in all of my motors over the last 20 years. My 6 and 7 year old grandaughters are word-perfect and won't tolerate any reduction in volume! Cheers Robt P. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ilkolad 9 Posted February 8, 2006 Report Share Posted February 8, 2006 One of the greatest groups from around this era in my eyes were the The Small faces.. Itchycoo Park, Lazy Sunday, Tin Soldier, All or Nothin', My Minds eye, etc.. and not forgetting the 'Ogdens Nut Gone Flake' LP, circa 68, which featured a round sleeve cover, and Professor Stanley Unwin narrating between the tracks.. a pure classic! I've still got my copy from the sixties tucked away in the cupboard somewhere.. I'll have to look it up and see what it's fetching on Ebay, it might be sitting on a fortune! BTW: NO begging letters - thank you! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
