Maybe you'll find this comment shameless, but if you want to get even deeper into the (late) sixties, maybe my chart could help.

My knowledge of 60's music is sketchy at best. My folks were very clean-cut and only listened to The Beatles & radio friendly hits from The Beach Boys. I feel like I've barely touched this decade's musical core. More to come!!
