Nice picks for 1966 - but I miss The Incredible String Band.
As far as 1966 is concerned, this is close to perfect.

A lot of hard work happens in the background to keep BEA running, and it's especially difficult to do this when we can't pay our hosting fees :(
We work very hard to ensure our site is as fast (and FREE!) as possible, and we respect your privacy.
