Hello Friends! Jumping right off of last week's look at British Beat from the 60s, this week we're taking a look at a little spread of pop straight out of the United States of America. From Wall-of-Sound Pop from The Ronettes and Sonny & Cher, Sunshine pop from The Turtles, Boyce & Hart, The Monkees, The Mamas & The Papas, The Beach Boys, and Margo Guryan, to downright rave-ups from Nancy Sinatra and Simon & Garfunkel, we've travelled right across the sonic palette of popular music in the middle of the greatest decade for it. We've also taken three further rave-ups from The Outsiders' 3rd LP, 'IN', released in January 1967 on Capitol - and unreleased outside of the USA! You can't get more American than that!
**Please be aware I incorrectly noted ‘Someone I Know’ as sampling Beethoven, when in fact Bach is the artist you’re looking for. Apologies.
Happy Listening,
Frederick
