Comment:

In 1963, one of the great musical decades kicks into high gear — you could barely drop a hi-fi needle or crank the dial on your transistor radio without landing on a masterpiece, from the Kingsmen's all-time party great, "Louie Louie," to Johnny Cash's iconic tale of burning love, "Ring of Fire," to the Ronettes' eternally wistful "Be My Baby."
