Music from October 1969

PLAY THE SHOW

Today’s show finds us returning to the year 1969, as one of the most socially tumultuous decades of the century drew toward an end. As usual, the times were so rich musically that it would be impossible to cover it adequately with one one-hour program, so we dedicate the first half of this show to hit singles, and then cover a few of the wonderful albums that were released in October of 1969. Next week, we’ll take a look at a few additional album tracks. Meanwhile, here are the tracks featured in today’s program;

1) Come Together – The Beatles

2) Something – The Beatles

3) Take a Letter Maria – R.B. Greaves

4) Is That All There Is? – Peggy Lee

5) Suite: Judy Blue Eyes – Crosby, Stills & Nash

6) Something in the Air – Thunderclap Newman

7) Victoria – The Kinks

8) Ballad of Easy Rider – The Byrds
