PJ said... Christmas '65, I was 11 yrs old and shocked by getting a copy of Rubber Soul. Were my folks cool?

JMS said... My mom singing Yellow Submarine and dancing around the kitchen with us kids. =) She was a hip gal.

Stu said... I'm a little young to remember any of those bands (I'm only 25), but I do remember getting a copy of Dire Straits' On Every Street when I was 10, and listening to it constantly for days.

Steph said... "Dance to the music" by Sly and every long road trip with my dad as a kid! They go hand in hand!

David said... Bob- I'm about the same age as you & couldn't agree more about the Beach Boys!Oldies Rock & so do U!

John said... Bob, The Beatles take me back to childhood, then reality sets in and you realize two are dead!

Xavier said... Let It Be always reminds me of Rainbow skating rink on Clark Street, ice skating during the winter of 1970, going round and round while they played the song every half hour (or so it seemed). As a ten-year-old, it just cemented my life-long love affair with the Beatles.

Justin said... Beach Boys and Beatles, they both get it done for me. I'm only 21 and the beach boys were my first concert way back in 3rd grade. my first cd was the red album by the beatles. my dad got me into classic rock when i was a small kid, from that point there was no looking back

Rita said... My 45 of Mercy,Mercy Mercy by The Buckinghams blaring on our RCA console & my lounge lizard Dad, swingin' on top of our new living room entable in 1968, crooning into a glass of Cutty Sark.
