Best albums of the 60's
 

I've been spinnin' nothing but 60's jams lately, so how about a thread on them?

Here's a few:
13th Floor Elevators - Easter Everywhere
Beatles - Rubber Soul
Blue Cheer - Vincebus Eruptum
The Freewheelin' Bob Dylan/Highway 61 Revisted
Creedence Clearwater Revival - Willy & The Poor Boys
VU & Nico (duh)
Red Krayolas - Parable of Arable Land (the birth of noise-rock?)

There's more, so name 'em.

i goofed - sorry.

anything by 13th Floor Elevators ranks highly... the VU records. "Copperfields" and "Wheatstraw Suite" by the Dillards. stuff by the Byrds, the Beatles, Gram PArsons/Burritto Bros. Iggy and the Stooges. Can / Amon Duul / Ash Ra Temple.

than the obvious (VU, dylan beatles etc...) id say
the stooges-s\t
the fugs-second album (one of my favorites)
frank zappa and the MOI-freak out!
i think cans first album is from the sixties...
the doors-s\t strange days
i dont think that there was much bad music during that decade...

oh yeah, and creedence-anything by the from the sixties...

The Temptations, all Motown, Miles Davis, Them, Donovan, Jeff Beck, Yardbirds, all of the Zappa shit....many more....geez....that's my favorite era....
