The Summer of Love had typical hot weather throughout the country, but the musical temperature in 1967 was even hotter.
The burgeoning youth movement had finally coalesced into something tangible, and for the first time in history, the kids were alright, and they were doing things (mostly) for themselves. It was a heady experience, a rush, to be a teenager in those years, because it really did feel as though the world was changing before our very eyes – and ears. Most of these songs, all from July 1967, capture an element of that spirit.
Here’s a list of songs featured in today’s program;
1) All You Need Is Love – The Beatles
2) Pleasant Valley Sunday – The Monkees
3) A Whiter Shade of Pale – Procul Harum
4) Carrie-Anne – The Hollies
5) To Love Somebody – The Bee Gees
6) My Mammy – The Happenings (as a “Bad Hit”)
…and our featured album tracks…
7) Hey Grandma – Moby Grape
8) Omaha – Moby Grape
9) Holiday – The Bee Gees
10) Cucumber Castle – The Bee Gees
