Three Tune Tuesday #133 - 60s essentials

qwerrie in Music • last year (edited)

The post goes for Three Tune Tuesday challenge run by @ablaze.

I wanted to present a selection of some 60-es essentials - and this goal is hard to achieve. I'd say it is totally unfittable into 3, 10 or 33 even tracks :D - there are so much important bands you have to include, and in most cases one song is no-go to introduce a great band. Options, options... impossible to choose! So, I decided to skip the painful selection / rectification process and just chose a few of my favorites. And of course, I promise this subject to be continued!

Today's names are: Janis Joplin, Johnny Cash, Jefferson Airplane.

Before I start, a little visual intro - Jay Blakesberg's photos. He is the man with camera who documented 35 years of 'hippie chicks' in music, and one of my fave photographers.

Cameraman himself. #src #src

His pics illustrate 70-80-es epoch, not the 60-es, but still. For more of his great stuff -- do check @retro-blakesberg at insta.

Janis Joplin - Me and Bobby McGee

_{(official video; from «Pearl» LP, 1970)}

Well, I'd trade all my tomorrow parties for one single yesterday - if it was a Janis gig. Or maybe not, thats not 100% for sure. Freedom is just another word for nothing left to loose, as Janis taught us. Considering that... we have too much on our hands (that we do not value properly) and - and we are not free at all.

Jonny Cash - I walk the line

_{(live at Denmark - September 1971)}

I did not grew up listening to Johnny Cash; discovered his music pretty late, just a decade back or so. But Cash is a legend, an important note
in the spirit of an epoch. Did you know, that he is considered - along with Elvis Presley and Frank Sinatra - one of the most influential musicians of the 20th century? Ok, simply: he was cool! but modern generations prefer to listen to the current artists, and tend not to open the closed books. thats a fault - cause, you know, now they do not make it like they used to, anymore...

Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit

_{(official video)}

I cant say a lot about this song... and I am not well-acknowledged about the band, either. But I do know it was one of the hymns of 60-es... the song about some peels... mushrooms also were mentioned... and there exist some other stuff as well. The epoch had so much more freedom in many questions, including different stuff to use...

PS. Listening to the lyrics, I am getting an impression it has a solid allusion at the birth control pills. What will respective native speakers say?

NB. There also exists a video from famous Woodstock festival back in 1969:

I hope you enjoyed today's music selection, and travelling around the globe without leaving the Hive. 😎 The post goes for Three Tune Tuesday challenge run by @ablaze.

There is something about this era and the music that pulls me toward it! Jefferson Airplane probably right up there for me. Love their tunes. I am thinking it is more to do with the hallocogenic drugs rather than birth control pills as far as i can tell.

A modern version mixed by Paul Kalkbrenner is also quite good, but doesnt have the same feel of course!

I have picked this post on behalf of the @OurPick project which will be highlighted in the next post!

Please consider voting for our Liotes HIVE Witness. Thank you!

thank you! probably could be, but thats a more simple interpretation?..

one way or another, but watching at that era, one cannot help but admit that there were objective factors... penicillin zeroed out infant mortality, after the war the baby boomer generation happened, then the above-mentioned contraceptive pill was invented - which made free sex possible - and soon it happened "summer of love" These are all parts of one picture, a puzzle.

please, can you choose for me 4-5 your personal faves from 'Jeff Airplane'?..
I really should be better acquainted with this great band.

great that we share !LUV to this era ...and some hive !PIZZA to celebrate it. ☘️

You could be right with the contraception pil being invented as part of the free love culture from the era, also the repeal of Joe Vs Wade which has caused the murder of millions of unborn children which has accelerated the population reduction agenda. Later on we had the "Aids" virus to promote condom use and further reduce childbirth and promote the nilhism.

But I digress! Obviously their track Somebody to Love is another huge one and the rest of their tracks are ok to listen to, but not quite so epic.

Very good selection of the sixties. Janis is a diva, anyway. Jefferson Airplane is one of my favorites. In my youth I even had a double record called Flight Log with the first two albums. But my favourite Johnny Cash stuff is his late work, American records, where he plays mostly rock band covers, Hurt, Personal Jesus, etc...

same with me! I like more his 'matured' stuff than simple rockabilly.

As I said, so happened that I am not well-known of 'Jefferson Airplane', please could you list 5-6 their best tracks (in your opinion) to me? would be grateful. ... and some hive hot !PIZZA back. to celebrate successfull round of #ttt.

Thank you for taking me back to my teenage years, and now that I am listening to this again, I am happy. This music was, and still is, wonderful to me.
I follow the music regularly, check #newtunes, but that virtuosity and aesthetic from those days is lost, it's gone, and you rarely find anything like it anymore.

Great choices! I love all of them! I thought about doing Johnny Cash today, but since our covered him I'll choose something else. Ever since last week I've had Dio in my head so it may be a Dio theme.

That's a great TTT! I haven't heard Joplin in ages or Jefferson Airplane. I keep meaning to do a Credence post. So many great options! I am going to start to try to do some music posts two or three times a week on my alt account @javeson , I did one a few days ago, and if I have time I'll do another tomorrow.

How have you been doing? Keeping warm I hope!
