Match the 60s Musician to Their Hit Song
The 60s were a wild time for music. Folks singers like Bob Dylan were using straightforward, narrative-driven songwriting to deliver political messages to a turbulence-riddled country. And the kids were ready to soak it all in.
Meanwhile, rock and roll took its foothold on the world and exploded into dozens of different new styles. Bands like The Beach Boys and The Beatles developed wildly from simple, upbeat pop-rock into weird psychedelia and beyond. Groups like Led Zeppelin started laying the foundation for metal to emerge in the 70s. Labels like Motown and Stax brought soul music into the mainstream where it belonged.
This quiz has a little bit of everything. From heavy-hitting mainstays to one-hit wonders, we’ve got it all. We’re looking at pop music from Greenwich Village to the Bay, from Monterey Pop to the British Invasion. Take a trip back through the decade that gave us the Summer of Love and see what you remember!
