The 60's and early 70's spawned the Indie bands of the late 80's and early 90's. What's not to like?
Top 5 songs from the whole of the 60s?? That's pretty hard...

Nah can't stand the 60s, too soft for me, not enough electronic stuff and synthesisers.
The 80s is like the 60s + 20!

Yeah, I quite like 60s music. I don't really classify it as "60s music" though as the time doesn't really matter to me. Some of my favourite artists (Bob Dylan, The Who, The Stooges etc) are from the 60s.

I love music of the 60s. Some of my favourite artists of all time were recording then:
Jimi Hendrix, Cream, Bob Dylan, The Beatles, Ray Charles, Elvis, Stevie Wonder, Simon and Garfunkel, etc.
I think Britain really set the standard for rock and roll through the 60s and 70s.

I would say that most of my 38 years playing in bands has been playing 60's music.
I started off playing Everley Brothers and the Shadows in 1970.
During the 70's and very early 80s I had the pleasure of supporting most major 60s acts who had now gone past their sell by date incuding The Hollies, Searchers, Ivy league, Merseybeats, Gerry & The Pacemakers etc.
Most of these I supported at the world famous Jollees in Longton, Stoke.
My biggest moment was playing guitar for Chuck Berry in 1980 who could technically be called a 60s artist.
So yes, I love the 60s and to basically answer your question - my daughters (age 21 & 19) can often be heard playing 60s compilations.

Can't beat a bit of Hank Marvin.
He was the best at what he did and an innovator.
There used to be many tribute bands in the 70s to The Shadows but they never quite got it right.
Funny thing is Naffa I never think of Hendrix, Cream, Zeppelin etc has 60s acts.
I'm 21 and I love the music from that period some of which my father hadn't even heard.
Some of my favourite artists from that period include: The Who, Cream, Bob Dylan, MC5, The Stooges, The Animals, The Kinks, The Doors, The Beatles, Jimi Hendrix Experience and The Velvet Underground.
Probably makes up the majority of my music collection.

I like quite a few bands from the 60s but like any other decade there was some great music released and some absolutely abysmal stuff, we're just lucky that with the benefit of time most of the dross has faded into the background.
