Man, alot of great names, but if I have to pick one its gotta be Chuck Berry, if you get a chance pick up a copy of his "Blue" version of "Reelin and a Rockin", its insane and it's great.
FYI: every single word in Little Richards "Tutti Fruiti" had to be changed before they would record it, also a great
great act. HUGE Rolling Stones fan but the tip of the hat goes to Chuck.

i was 9 years old in 65 so "my music" days were just starting. but in 65 probably Jay and the Americans were right up there https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif doc

Re: Who's your Favorite??
 

One song comes to mind when I think of Chuck. No paticular place to go! Damn this weather!

Re: Who's your Favorite??
 

Jed, Jed, Jed my boy....You were NOT even a glimmer in your parents eye in those days. You better stick to Dave Matthews, Nellie and maybe John Meyer. For the mid sixties how about the Beach Boys, Stones, Dave Clark Five, The Kinks, Moody Blues, Tommy James and The Shondells, Marvin Gaye and don't forget the amazing Temtations!!!! When you lived around Philly they all were favorites. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...iggthumpup.gif https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...ouguysrock.gif

Re: Who's your Favorite??
 

Hey come on now! My first cassette tape was of Chuck Berry. I remember singing that song in the back of my friends parents Chevy Celebrity station wagon back in 86. Riding around in my automobile, my baby beside me at the wheel. I told her softly and sincere and she leaned and whispered in my ear. Can you imagine the way I felt, I couldn't unfasten her safety belt. Sorry Sam I hate Nellie and DMB and John Mayer. They SUCK! LOL So I'm not allowed to play this game????

Actually, the Big Bopper was J. P. Richardson and was famous for the song Chantilly Lace. One of my favorite songs from that era.
James

Re: Who's your Favorite??
 

We listened to The Beach Boys, Jan &amp; Dean, Jerry Lee, Elvis, Chuck Berry and all, but what really changed Rock was the British Invasion. Music was never the same after listening to The Animals, Spencer Davis, Beatles, Zombies, Tremeloes, Searchers, Yardbirds, Moody Blues, DC Five, Stones, Kinks, Who, Troggs, Peter &amp; Gordon, Hermans Hermits, Monkees, Donovan, Van Morrison, Freddie &amp; the Dreamers, Gerry &amp; the Pacemakers, Hollies, Wayne Fontana and even John Mayall &amp; the Bluesbreakers!

Re: Who's your Favorite??
 

Another vote for "The Killer", Jerry Lee Lewis.

Man there were so many good ones back then and I have that disease called CRS! Can't Remember S#!^.I think I am going to have me a $5000.00 dollar sound system put in my truck with speakers the size of small trampolines and the next time I run up on one of these younger generation people that have that reall LOUD THUMPING BASS music playing or one of those LOUD RAP SONGS I will load a OLD CD in and put on some ear protection and CRANK IT UP till the power level hits EXTREMELY HIGH and there windows start cracking!I really am a lover of music and all kinds even some opera but that rap and THUMPING BASS crap is VERY ANNOYING TO ME! I was at the carwash the other day and a guy was playing a MEXICAN RAP song really loud! After about 5 minutes I walked over to him and politely asked if he could turn it down to a respectable level that would not be so annoying to others around!He was nice and turned it down and there were 5 other people at the carwash and they all started clapping! I guess they were annoyed also but didn't want to say anything.

Re: Who's your Favorite??
 

I've always liked the sound of Classics IV.
No other group transforms back to the blue collar mid 60's like their sound &amp; Dennis Yosts' vocals.
My parents always had a 45 or 8tk of them playing in the house or car back then,so I guess that's why.
