One of the greatest era's of all time. The music just moves you. I grew up listening to all of these. I also raised my son listening to these and now he is raising his children listening to all of the great songs. We have so much fun watching the little ones dance too them.

Early memories for me: my babysitter when I was in kindergarten, first, and second grades (1968-1971) loved the music of the sixties. I got exposed at an early age to some great music!

WOW what a blast from the past I remember the biggest part of these . I still remember when the Beatles were on TV for the first time on the Ed Sullivan show.

[andrewbrennan]
