You can make your selection on the slim black music player in the left-hand corner below (the control buttons work in the same way as a normal CD player, play, stop, FF etc) or you can just let it play through all the songs automatically. To down load the sample tracks that are playing click the "download" tab on the music player below. Be sure to stop the audio while playing the video on this page. |

1969 saw the baby boomer generation come of age as the music and creativity of the times set a new standard that has not been equaled to this day. In an era when the popular music charts were basically un-segmented and devoid of the genres that exist today, it was not uncommon to find Jimi Hendrix, The Supremes, David Bowie, Joan Baez, The Who, Elvis Presley, Marvin Gaye, The Beatles, Johnny Cash, Iron Butterfly, Neil Diamond, Led Zeppelin, Otis Redding, Bob Marley, Simon & Garfunkle, The Monkees and James Brown all charting in the top 40. The fact that this happened on one pop chart is nothing short of amazing. By today's standards you would be hard pressed to find more than three of these artists existing within the same genre and in some cases such as with Marley or Cash, more than just one. |
