Some of the above count as dreck for sure, but the nostalgia element saves them for some of us. This on the other hand... :tdown: ..on the cusp of the Beatles arrival. God knows where pop music would have gone if they hadn't turned up.

I hear you. There's shit from the 70s that is absolutely gag-worthy which I love simply because of the nostalgia factor.

And yes, the Beatles made up for a lot of 60s crap. And Jimi, too, for my money. The 70s didn't even have that unless you count Led Zeppelin as being in their league, which I don't.

Some great offerings! I am reminded that the 'sixties' was actually a period from give or take late 1963 to about 1972 by which time the fizz had all but gone.
