Liverpool Sound and Vision Rating 9/10
The 60s is when it all came alive, when the teenagers saw that Bill Haley had faded out and that the first great hero of Rock and Roll was never coming back, it was the era of old men born in the 19th Century finally not running the White House, of hope in the passion of Martin Luther King and John F. Kennedy, of the race to go beyond the perceived limits of the Earth, of a new love culminating in the Woodstock festival and in which for ever afterwards, through the wasted opportunities, through political scandal and assassinations, and the rise of Generation X and the coming of cynical dogma, that if you can remember it, then you weren’t paying attention to the message.
