To me, what we've come to know as the sixties began on Feb 9, 1964.
This is the British Invasion period but there was much more to the Sixties for many of us. For example, the early sixties were a peak period for Motown. It was an era when instrumental hits were quickly becoming a thing of the past. With some of these influences coming together, I offer this up for your enjoyment: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QAH1czGE-fw]the rolling stones - 2120 south michigan avenue - stereo edit - YouTube[/ame]

I was a Stones' fan early on in your version of the sixties and didn't begin to enjoy the Beatles until Revolver and Rubber Soul. I assume you play and hope to hear you someday once we get to actually spend more time in TV.

Here is a shot of my college band back in 1966. I am on the Hammond. https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?f...type=3&theater
