Well, it’s back to the grind for us. Barely married one week, and already we are returning to our normal routine. The good part of that routine is doing American Hit Radio, though, so here we are with a brand new episode!
Today’s topic is “The Dog Days of 1966 (August-September 1966). What a summer it was, too, especially if you were a fan of pop music. To think that all of these songs were debuting for the first time at the same time, all in the middle of summer, blows my mind. We can’t even FIND a ‘great miss’ for this show! I think that the Summer of ‘66 speaks for itself, so enjoy!
Here’s a list of tunes culled from the ‘dog days’ of 1966;
1) Land of 1000 Dances – Wilson Pickett
2) Sunny Afternoon – The Kinks
3) The Dangling Conversation – Simon & Garfunkel
4) Reach Out, I’ll Be There- The Four Tops
5) Last Train to Clarksville – The Monkees
6) 96 Tears - ? and the Mysterians
7) Psychotic Reaction – The Count Five
8) Walk Away Renee - The Left Banke
9) And Your Bird Can Sing – The Beatles (as a Featured Album Track)
10) For Noone – The Beatles – (also as a Featured Album Track)
11) Tomorrow Never Knows – The Beatles (ALSO as a Featured Album Track!)
