In the 1960's, baby boomers were coming of age, and America was catering to young people. This was reflected in the music of the decade, with songs like "Yesterday", "World Without Love" and "Can't Buy Me Love" by the Beatles and "Help Me Rhonda", "Good Vibrations" and "California Girls" by the Beach Boys all hitting the charts. These are only a few of the 100 plus songs you'll find in this nostalgic collection. There was a variety of popular genres in the 60's unmatched during any other period in music history. Popular songs included "Under The Boardwalk", "A Time For Us" and Petula Clark's "Downtown". There was folk music, blues music, country and western music, and of course those unforgettable songs that came out of Detroit, Michigan from Berry Gordy on the Motown Label. With this book in your collection, you'll be able to play, sing, or strum along to all of these great songs of the 60's! Sounds like fun, don't you think?
