To me, what we've come to know as the sixties began on Feb 9, 1964.
I felt I was was in a musical void in the early sixties compared to the fifties. I found myself tuning into the R&B stations to fill that void. Then came the Rolling Stones, the Yardbirds, Eric Burdon, Paul Butterfield, etc. From then on the sixties rocked.
