Favorite 60's/70's Music

lesliepaul · Post by **lesliepaul** » Mar 16th, 2022, 2:05 am

I see the 80's music topic has slowed down somewhat after going gangbusters for a while.

Time to get into probably some of the best music of a generation that never gets old.........

I'll start it with one song appropriate now before I go crazy posting in the next few days.........

War........Edwin Starr

Barry Mcguire.......... Eve of Destruction

.........nothing has changed since this song came out in 65.........maybe more hate today.

I swear this one got played at every single house party in the 70's. That's what I heard anyway.

Thanks, but what changes does one make to the YouTube link?
I've done it correctly before but don't recall.

Delete everything from &t=3s&ab_channel=TheRollingStones and it will upload as a video.

I just discovered this song last week. Of course, I probably did hear it growing up because my dad was a fan of CSN {and sometimes Y]

The lyrics are genius and harmonies beautiful. I'm trying to get my wife, daughter, and son to do a 3 part harmony with this song (because they have beautiful voices that can stay on key, unlike me)...

here is a cover...

One of my favourites from that year - 1968:

Huge WHO fan..........one standout performance was "See Me Feel Me" from Woodstock........probably one of the greatest live performances ever after "Live At Leeds".

.........Pete Townshend literally bleeds at every concert.........at 3:12 into the video you can see the blood on his fingers from doing his "windmill".

Probably one of the greatest opening guitar riffs............Ted Nugent and "Stranglehold".

This is a more recent concert footage but sounds amazing..........the singer here is Derek St. Holmes who did the vocals on the original recorded version.

Next to the WHO, I have always been a big Eagles fan. Every one of their albums is great but I think their second album "Desperado" was their best........a true west concept album if you will about the Dalton Gang from the early 1900's. Country rock at its best.
