It’s when the album fully came of age, and set the stage for its dominance in the decade to come.I discuss how the album developed from a collection of songs into a work of art in its own right, and go over some of the decade’s greatest albums, including my favorites.I also talk about how the album – and music as a whole – became a vital part of the social & political culture at large.What are your favorite albums of the 1960s? Do you feel like that was the heyday of albums, or was that still on its way? Discuss dammit!BONUS MxTRA VIDEO: THE HISTORY OF 45s~~~*intro music credit: REC - "Wake Up High"*mid roll music credit: The Drop - "Outerloper" Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
