Thread Name: Best ten songs of the 60's
Subject: RE: Best ten songs of the 60's
Here is my ten most memorable Folk songs from the 60's in no particular order -
Streets of London - Ralph McTell Farewell Angelina - Joan Baez The Lonesome Death of Hattie Carroll - Bob Dylan Universal Soldier - Buffy St Marie or Donovan Turn, Turn, Turn - Pete Seeger Eve of Destruction - Barry McGuire Woodstock - Joni Mitchell The Last Thing on my Mind - Tom Paxton Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel Dirty Old Town - Ewan McColl
The last song pre-dates the 60's but was first heard by me then and was the first song I learned to play.
There are so many great songs and performers in that decade that this list could be 100 great songs.
