Comment:

Ten years is a long time, and when the decade in question is the '60s — when rock and pop grew up and really came into its own — the range of sounds and styles is simply staggering. Scoring even one hit in the '60s really meant something, which is why our [i]'60s One-Hit Wonders[/i] is packed with once-in-a-lifetime classics that run the gamut from glossy pop singles like the Spiral Starecase's "More Today Than Yesterday," to the bubblegum sounds of the Lemon Pipers's "Green Tambourine," to the mind-blowing shuffle of the Count Five's "Psychotic Reaction." These are truly the Essentials, with Shirley Bassey's brassy Bond theme "Goldfinger" standing the test of time alongside the hallucinatory wah-wah of Status Quo's "Pictures of Matchstick Men" — all packed into one easy download for your instant time-traveling pleasure.
