Most of the big hits and genres are covered, as well as good album tracks and songs that undeservedly didn't chart very highly. My own preferences are for folk-rock, psychedelia, soul, mod and freakbeat, but in the interests of presenting a fuller picture of the music of 1966, the songlist will include a few 'adult contemporary' hits that weren't bought by anyone under the age of 50 but occasionally dominated the charts. However, I will use my discretion to ignore certain hit songs that I feel to be too mediocre,
Most videos here are linked from YouTube. Where possible, I have selected clips that show the artists in performance in 1966, to better convey the feel of the times. Of course, videos are occasionally removed from YouTube so please do notify me if any links here no longer work, and I can set about fixing the problem.
I have also tried to ensure that the information is correct. If you notice any mistakes, feel free to let me know.
