The Time Was February 1969: A Shift Towards Roots

episode date - February 25, 2009

After the wild indulgences of Psychedelia, it’s only natural that a backlash would take place. Slowly, rock and roll started to shift to a place where it could acknowledge a few of its influences. The Band kicked things off with their debut album in late 1968, but things really got rolling by early 1969.

Here a re a few songs that made a difference forty years ago this month;

1) Proud Mary – Creedence Clearwater Revival

2) Time of the Season - The Zombies

3) My Whole World Ended – David Ruffin

4) Games People Play – Joe South

5) Today I Sing the Blues – Aretha Franklin

6) Hot Burrito#1 – The Flying Burrito Brothers

7) Hot Burrito #2 –The Flying Burrito Brothers

8) Good Times Bad Times – Led Zeppelin
