60s Music, A Decade of Great Music

The 60s decade produced some of the best music of all time. Even today it is listened to not only by the 60s generation but by our children and grandchildren.  Oldies stations playing the 60s are popping up everywhere.  The music is popular today as it was when we were kids. The music of the 60s generation had rock, instrumentals, love songs, surfing music, songs of protest,  hillarious and crazy songs. The 60s generation of music set the stage for music to come.  Countless songs from the 60s generation have been remade by others.  Television commercials used the recordings to sell their products. Movies such as Dirty Dancing and American Grafitti immortalized a period of our history.
