The old timers give the young'ns tips on the 60s.


I love the music of the 60s...it was such a magic time musically. Unfortunately I wasn't born yet. Of course, we young'ns know about the greats....CSN, Jefferson Airplane The Doors, Neil Young, CCR, the obvious ones...but it took me awhile to find Moby Grape, Richie Havens or Nick Drake. How about some tips of some great sixities music that somehow has dropped off the radar.

As I started reading your post I was thinking Moby Grape but you already found them. Try these:
Spirit - Twelve Dreams Of Dr. Sardonicus, it holds up very well.
It's A Beautiful Day - It's A Beautiful Day.
Chicago Transit Authority, it's the first Chicago album and is still a fantastic album. Great songs, one of the best guitar players of the 60s, just a perfect snapshot of the times.

Of course when Joe wasn't on mind altering substances...he made some really good music..if just a bit of an acquired taste!
