Canned Heat was formed in 1965.  This 1968 hit of theirs remains one of my favorites. Lead singer Alan Wilson sadly became a member of the 27 Club on September 3, 1970.  In fact, I think he died two weeks before Jimi Hendrix of acute barbituate intoxication. There was speculation it was suicide, but he did not leave a note.  Fortunately, he did leave us some great music, including this number:


Amen.

Formed in 1968 in Brooklyn, New York, Alive and Kickin' is the quintessential one hit wonder.  And what a hit it was. Written by the great Tommy James and Bob King, the song made it all the way to #7 and stayed on the charts for 16 weeks in 1970:


Amen.

I confess I don't frequently listen to The Moody Blues, but I will give them some righteous props. Formed in 1964, the hall-of-famers have sold over 70 million albums. Released in 1968, this is one of my favorites, although it isn't even close to being one of their biggest hits:


Amen.
Deo vindice

All 1960's music sounded similar.

Heh. Here's an interesting Wikipedia bio of a 60s group:

"Dino, Desi & Billy were an American singing trio that existed between 1964 and 1969. The group featured Dean "Dino" Martin (Dean Paul Martin, the son of singer and actor Dean Martin), Desi Arnaz Jr. (Desiderio Arnaz IV, the son of television stars Desi Arnaz and Lucille Ball), and their friend Billy Hinsche."

I woulda named 'em The Silver Spoons. Regardless, catch the ages of these kids when they made their Ed Sullivan appearance:


Amen.
Deo vindice

Mom likes 1960's music. I don't hate it. However, if you've heard 1 song from that decade, you've heard them all.
