Teenyboppers... what happened to them?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AP1o4DQx6-4Here we go.
WILD THINGYOU MAKE MY HEART SINGYOU MAKE EVERYTHING GROOVY
Oh right, the first album nobody remembers because they had a different singer.
Lazing on a Sunny Afternoon
Going to take an extended vacation in Canada for a while. See ya, guys.
>>130323738Fuck you, swine - Hunter S Thompson
>hated the title song because he thought it was about an encounter between two gay dudes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yhxbTEd7UOMHey you guys didn't forget me? I'm still here, right?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3YWNsHOz8U
>>130323785At least he's trying to keep up
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLomSaLLSzg
An album without filler?
>>130323878>hey, we're the Beatles but edgier XDi wonder what they'll do if the Beatles ever break up some day? probably play the same riff every night until they're 90 years old.
>>130323896>one of three LPs he put out this yearI should point out that he doesn't have real "albums" until 67-68.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sWt4Hz1KGcQaw that's pretty funky
>>130323687fpbp
this was just a great fucking year in music. boomers had it made the whole time and didn't even know it. life on EZ mode. but at least they left some great music behind.
groovy, man
this is the last year where Cuckgau still "gets" what's going on musically before he becomes a boomer next year at the ripe old age of 25 and gets filtered by Jimi Hendrix
These guys have a great future in R&B. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JwKhKusYE8
>>130323785https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jXbwaDPOyTII'm still here too, rrright guys?
say whatever happened to Elvis anyway? what's he even doing these days?
>>130324108Not when you're still putting out 1960's records in 1966, Concetta. We have the Animals now, thank you very much.
>>130323870AOTYhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NADx3-qRxek
>Eww, you like the Monkees? You know they don't write their own songs.>They do so.>And you know they don't play their own instruments.>They do so!>That's not even Michael Nesmith's real hat.>NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
14 Jan 1966: Young English singer David Jones changes his last name to Bowie to avoid being confused with Davy Jones of the Monkees.
>>130324161Damn tunesmiths! - John Lennon
'Retha's last CBS release before beginning a new stage of history.
>>130324197"Christianity will go. It will vanish and shrink. I needn't argue about that; I'm right and I'll be proved right. We're more popular than Jesus now; I don't know which will go first – rock 'n' roll or Christianity. Jesus was all right but his disciples were thick and ordinary. It's them twisting it that ruins it for me."-John Lennon, March 1966
>>130324238Based.
>>130324185did you know Stephen Stills auditioned for the Monkees but they rejected him for being too ugly?
>>130324249So did Charles Manson
Strangers was the commercial album for his year, this one was the "cred" album.
6/6/66: Steve Vai turns 6 today.
>>130324269>Strangers was the commercial album for his year*for this year, sorry
still disappointed he went electric and he hasn't written any protest stuff in a while. well maybe the next album.
>>130324269September of My Years came out the year before, won the Grammy in '66. This fucker was so talented and had great song selection.
>>130324209her Cokelumbia albums weren't _bad_ just not quite as earthy as the Atlantic ones since Cokelumbia was a very conventional label wed to bandstand/showtune material
>>130324294This is his best work
>>130324311>This fucker was so talented and had great song selectionOn the cred albums anyway, the commercial ones were Reprise forcing him to record pop covers for money/radio play most of which he hated doing.
>>130324336Wasn't Reprise his label anyways?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYYNKJGRg3Q
do these guys have a future?
>>130324345Originally it was Sinatra's self-label to give a home to his aging jazz/crooner buddies like Rosemary Clooney and Duke Ellington, but Warner bought them out in two years, fired most of his buddies, and started stocking the roster with rock acts. They let him stay but he had to record contemporary pop.
>>130324354I don't like that Doug Levison guy hanging with them
Speaking of Frankhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4DKveT9pP4M
>>130324371(((levison)))
>HERE COMES THE NIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIGHTGoing to see Them at the Whisky, with The Doors opening. What should I expect?
>>130323689>n-n-nnnoooo im protesting our taxes going to fund wars, I swear! I’m not just a rich celebrity bitching about my obscene wealth getting redistributed to the NHS
>>130323762I love how pissed off he sounds all over this album. He’s constantly flubbing lines and audibly sneering and they just left it all in.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLCFrPZKp9Awritten in '59 but never released on an album. this single is from '66. Immortal Little Richard
>>130324419Nuts to you, George.
>>130324467Country albums aren't really "albums" anyway.
Soundtrack AOTY
Oh, shut up.
>>130324488Technically no. As for this one she's still a year from putting an LP out yet and it sounds like we're still in 1962 here.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Zq6_el27aw8
>>130324537ah yes early Dolly when she was still doing teenybopper shit
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XrH6v8R83sgToo bad Gordy took away most of their good songs to give to his fucktoy instead.
>>130323870Why did they mess with the formula? I miss California girls.
>>130324406was this the one where he shits on Peter, Paul, and Mary? lol.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PV97roslmt0
Pat's last-ever charting hit where a guy who got out of the Korean War as a conscientious objector makes a pro-Vietnam song. 'Nuff said.
No thanks, Steve-O, but you sucked ten years ago and you continue to suck.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=__EQdUASVKs
>>130324792https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nxpzzxT1fJYHe's not a OHW, who'da thunk it?
>>130324728Wifey in her usual snooty supper club music for people with too much money who drink bad mixed drinks.
>>130323646this must be the last pre-drug year because what happens with music next year...ha ha let's say there's some pretty big changes
>>130323917Most pop music in 66 is still singles in fact, with 68 being the year when LPs take over.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qFtFghbN0NEThe world's lamest band.
>>130323646PAUL IS FUCKING DEADTHEY REPLACED HIM
>>130325128That's not The Dave Clark 5

Album number three for the year.
>>130325397And the best one
Nuts to you, Lou.

wonder how much shooping it took to remove the lines and creases from her 43 year old mug? oh well at least there's no Martha and the Vandellas covers here.
He fell flat, and the film was a contract-fulfilling pile of trash.
>>130325551*44 year old mug, sorry.
KPOP GENERAL
>>130324125making awful movie soundtracks and none of his stuff gets any airplay outside the South
>>130325879It's funny that both A Hard Days Night and Help mog any of Elvis' films
>>130325879last year they had to dust off "Crying in The Chapel" to get a hit when that was an unused song he recorded in 1960 and sounded well outdated by then
can't believe she sold out and did a Christmas album
>>130325814These girls got spammed relentlessly on variety TV yet never sold one record.
>>130326028So if you're a folksinger you can sing as many songs about Jesus as you want, but if they're about his birth that's crossing a line. Got it.
>>130326044>>130325814Hopefully we don't try this again in 13 years with Pink Lady.
Whose going to Bass lake with the Hell's Angels?!
Spent a few weeks in the pen and met this eccentric fella named Charlie Manson. He got a guitar somehow and picked a few Beatles tunes pretty well. I figure he will do great things when he gets out.
>>130326211fuckin' Mafiaslop
Only if you say so, Jackie.
>>130326211Also on Phillips and coming to a cutout bin near you.
The first encounter.
More Phillips.
>>130323689>>130324419>>130324457>they actually listened to music made for teen girlsgay
>>130326211banger
Number two.
>>130326425a few years before the world's most overrated album
>>130326385Nice desecration of Jan Howard. Imagine being at this for 16 years and still making the same baby-voiced nursery rhyme slop.
>>130326398>STOPPED INTO A CHURCH>I PASSED ALONG THE WAY>WELL I GOT DOWN MY MY KNEES>AND i PRETEND TO PRAYlol religion dum XD
TOO MANY TEARDROPSFOR ONE HEARTTO BE CRYIN'

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y9tKuqX0-rk
Eat your heart out Dylan!https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOylT4I7qaI
>>130323738say what? Marty Balin was the lead singer on the first album, Signey only did vocals on two tracks.
>>130326928Where are they going?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhTP_JW-jmwHere. The only track she got solo lead vocals on. You'll pretty quickly deduce that she was no Grace Slick and it would have been pretty awful to sit through an entire album of her singing.
>>130323646So this just dropped today. Thoughts?
>>130326966early Airplane was also just a so-so blues band and nothing like the Airplane we all know
black power
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7w1j4MGF6X4The old '50s warhorses are back.
These boots ARE made for walkin' ya dumb skank

Doris's unreleased 1966 album that did not see the light of day until 1994.
a blast from the past returns to cover the Beatles?
>>130327154https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MB597FcDhB0wouldn't take this over Jaye P. Morgan's version, no thanks
>>130326742Damn the Ventures must be getting those Japanese fellas to pick up the guitar
Clapton was the baddest guitarist around for a year before he got de-throned, but in 1966 nobody had a tone like him.
>>130327031>fpbpGAAAYYWhy can't the beach boys make good music like Nancy Sinatra? Now THAT'S an artist with a future!
What the fuck is this shit? Kids like this?
>>130328122Tony outlasts Mitch Miller only to fall into Clive Davis's net.
>>130326720one thing you can say about Phillips era Teresa is that she still sounded liked her old bouncy self while after coming back in the 70s and deciding to LARP as a jazz singer she sounded like she aged about 30 years in six.
>>130326308after 64 she just became another AC singer. meh.
Snoozefest
>>130326007>obligatory "Yesterday" coverDammit.
>>130328381There's about 30 or something covers of that song this year, many of them from old farts (Brenda was not an old fart of course but there was >>130327580, Perry Como, Sinatra, among others covering it)
>>130323689we could consider Rubber Soul a '66 album for all practical purposes as it came out at the very end of '65
Ella's last Verve album and the last album of hers anyone need listen to even though she still has nearly a quarter century of recording left ahead.
>>130324927And this chucklefuck.
LSD is put on the Federal controlled substances list this year.
These HIPPIES
Los Saicos
>>130326771>PRETEND TO PRAY
>>130325058Is it in the insert or on the back?
>>130326428>you actually listened to only the first half of their careergay
>>130326720the track you mention is demonstrative of Teresa's inevitable failure: sing-songy, one-dimensional, childish, immaturein a sense, Teresa was never good, and never can be good; her limitations are patterned at this point
>>130326028At least this is not a pine-for-Bobby album like everything else she did after '65.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v_d4TQ_7KXYA blast from the past comes back from the dead (well, kind of since this record sounds like 1959 rather than '66).
>>130332331this thing sounds so far behind the times you wonder if it was actually something they recorded years earlier and left in the bin
>>130325035Nah it's happening
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hucIr47oF1Q
>>130323646I really AM tired of these fucking low effort "hurr hurr /mu/ in XXXX XX" threads where an underageb& retard asks the board to write an interactive story for them. Why haven't the mods banned them completely yet? This site is a goner.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I6qyC7wbWwo
>>130332399i'd be upset if i hade no male role models to show me old cool music and i've just been stuck listening to the governments' psyop pop slop and whatever else is trending
>>130332357If they could dust off "Crying In The Chapel" a song recorded 5 years earlier, why not?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=okEKwI3xEH0MGM screwed Roy over good, also his sound isn't particularly fresh or cutting edge anymore.
