60's Odds, Sods & Mods
The 60's were times of great musical change in Britain and I think it would be interesting to see who were everyone's favourite bands (or even one hit wonders) from the decade.
For me it's between The Beatles, The Small Faces and The Who. |

Re: 60's Odds, Sods & Mods
The Bobby Fuller Four - hit the US charts with a brilliant cover of the Crickets' "I Fought The Law" (later ruined by the Clash). Then released an equally brilliant version of the Crickets' "Love's Made A Fool Of You". Along with Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bobby took the spirit of 50's rock 'n' roll into the 60's. But, sadly, not for long...Bobby was found dead in his car, reeking of gasoline, in an LA parking lot in the summer of '66. The offical verdict was suicide, but darker theories abound. He left some great music behind, though.

Re: 60's Odds, Sods & Mods
Oh and like Anne said Elvis, but he's timeless, not confined to just one decade.

Re: 60's Odds, Sods & Mods
interesting tidbit I came across the other day , tangentaly relates to this thread, during the 60 there was a crap group called 'the Dave Clark 5' supposed to be Londons answer to the Mersey sound .......anyway it seems Dave Clark now owns the rights to the TV show Ready Steady Go and everytime the show is aired in re-runs it is 'doctored -up' to include a song by the Dave Clark 5 group doing one of their songs .......sounds like the guy has a bit of an ego ........
