Comment:

It’s the decade that brought us the war in Vietnam and the Summer of Love, the first man on the Moon, the first working laser, and the first Touch-Tone telephone. It’s that miraculous era when [i]Dr. Strangelove[/i] met [i]Mary Poppins[/i] and gave us [i]Rosemary’s Baby[/i]. The British Invasion came and went . . . and came back again. Canada got a new flag, Berlin got a new wall, the National Hockey League doubled in size, and the United States’ population crossed the 200-million threshold. It was a big decade, no question, and that’s why one Essentials playlist couldn’t [i]nearly[/i] scratch the surface of all its musical bounty, so we’re serving up a heaping second helping. From the Animals to the Youngbloods, from Bob Dylan to Janis Joplin, we’ve got all the magic, mayhem, and [i]music[/i] that made the ’60s a decade we’ll never forget . . . even if weren’t there.
