Nice pick, morrobay.  The 60's had so much musical variety and R & B / Mowtown / Soul had so much to contribute.  Great frickin' stuff.

 

Indeed and let us not forget all that good Latin/Jazz too

Post WW2 generation coming of age, tired of austerity, rise of youth culture, both black and white with money to spend  White boys turning to the blues, folk music coming out of the clubs and going electric

As you say, a perfect storm, before rock became an industry.

And some folk music too. Tippaporn, bannork anyone have any theories why about 1965 was so amazing for music ? 

A perfect good storm ?

I always considered the explosion of music in the 50's & 60's as a renaissance.  Why did it happen?  Probably for no different reasons, but having it's own reasons, than the European renaissance of the 14th ~ 17th centuries, or the appearance of so many great figures during the founding of America.  One can speculate but I can only say I feel privileged and fortunate to have been a part of that era.

 

The UK's version of Bob Dylan.  From 1965 . . .

 

 

The era was, in short, explained by these guys . . .
