ICONIC Music Scene of February 1965, You Just Can't Find It Today! Beatles, Rolling Stones, Animals

- The Iconic Music Scene of February 1965 is filled with music, fashion and live shows that you just can’t find today! Imagine waking up on a cold morning and turning on the radio to your favorite station and hearing one hit song after another all day long. Little do you know that you are in a very special period of music history that will eventually be long gone. The British Invasion is in full swing as well as the Motown Sound and the music scene is filled with many talented Blues and Jazz musicians. Melodies never heard before fill record stores but are now lost to music corporations profits and image consciousness over the music being created. The music scene in 1965 was a shared cultural experience that bonded people through music, fashion and innovation. So much has changed that it requires some imagination to understand the differences.
This is a ton of work! Your support is greatly appreciated!!

There is no comparison. Today's so-called music and fashion culture sucks.
Every generation there is good music. You just need to know where to look 😊
I must agree with you👍
Our fashion culture is leggings and a sweater there’s nothing wrong with that sometimes but the fashion of the 60s actually had style and effort I take a lot from the 60s in my dress it’s timeless
@@rossybink unfortunately, because everything is at a person's fingertips nowadays, it's very hard to find what you want.
America and Britain had the world in its hands. Then greed took over and we destroyed ourselves.
No, it wasn't 'greed'. That has been around since Adam and Eve! It was big government with big corporations ganging up on the people (fascism) that took over from what government did to increase its power by uniting with the desire of big corporations to limit the free market's natural competition. Using government laws, taxes, and regulations to stop smaller start-ups that wanted to challenge the big boys, but the restrictions and taxes on the small or medium-sized corporations hurt them far more than on the big corporations, and that is exactly why the constant push for more government power; to help the big corporations from the natural free marketplace that could derail them by the up-and-coming mid-sized or start-up corporations!
I was 19 summer of '65 & this is the music of my youth & what I still love best today.
🎶
Although I was only 5 years old when the '60s ended, I consider myself a child of that era n wish that I was old enough 2 remember it.
I grew up in the greatest era.
Yes, I was 14 in 1965. It was a very good year, especially for music and fashion!
Such a creative time!
You were a baby boomer.
I was 11 years old, and it was all about The Beatles, Motown, and my transistor radio, which I listened to every night, as I fell asleep to songs like, Going to the Chapel (of Love). It was a very exciting and optimistic time!
Sweet memories I’m sure 👍
Still 12 in February. I was about to turn 13 in April 1965. Good times remembered. These were all songs I heard on the radio. Radio was a blast back then. This show seems like it was taken from something much longer. It cuts in and out. Anybody know where the original broadcast is from?
@@willharris3798 actually in '65 it was much cheaper than that! and in '70 $1.99 buys you a Moody Blues album, gas was 21cents/gal in Waco Tx til 73, and a big mac was 49 cents. but then Nam was heating up thanks to the pig LBJ, etc and the killing of JFK by them about a year earlier, with RFK and MLK and X to come.
I remember those transistor radios👍
Great time in music.
i was 15 in '65 so glad i grew up in this era great childhood going to the stock car races every saturday, the music was on top, i was a beatles fan early then graduated to the greatest of all British bands The Who!
Cool
I was 9 in February '65. It was a great time to be a kid
Me, too! I agree. Would love to go back!
I turned 8 in January '65 Awesome time to be a kid...it's been a wild ride.
👍
IMHO February 1964 was better and the year that followed can't be matched. I remember it well. Starting with the Beatles' first appearance on Ed Sullivan and a wave of hits from the other side of the pond along with the Supremes, the Four Seasons and the Beach Boys. It was truly a joy to sit, stand or play by the transistor radio while the music blared out. I knew even then it was special
I was only 5 (just turned in Feb) but I remember all this music & when housing was affordable for the working class in the US 😢
yeh, me 7.
Man, I wouldn't trade growing up with Rock for all the money in the world. For one who loves music, those days growing into a young adult while Rock was being birthed - we know - can never be repeated. We are/were a privileged generation.
Kids today don't know who any of these people are. They've never heard the Beatles, don't know who Joe Walsh, Stevie Winwood, Stevie Nicks are. I imagine some don't even know who Elvis was? Heartbreaking.

@@synchronicity1470you have that right, I wouldn't trade my youth in music for anything, it was a once in a lifetime experience.
Living in Detroit during these 1960's years were quite enjoyable. Of course, watching Ed Sullivan's show was common, especially seeing the British bands coming to America... starting with The Beatles! Will good music ever happen again? Depends on musicians who are actually musicians that actually know music and can play a real instrument instead of today's electronic noise. I'm too old to hold my breath!
$7.00 for an LP? That may have been full Retail,but most people were paying in the $3.00 range.
Music had peaked well before this. Fewer individual singers more groups. I preferred July 1961 - July 1964
In February 1965 I just turned 16. Got my drivers license, got freedom and just saw an incredibly beautiful world of music. I think a year or two later I went to see the Rolling Stones with my girlfriend and there were about 5000 people and I paid, six dollars a ticket. Halfway through the show, the stones invited people up on the stage, Mayhem broke out. Cops came in show was over times of change, but memories last forever.
Great fashion. I like Elizabeth Hartman.
I never paid $7.00 for an LP, unless it was a double LP (The Beatles White Album, Tommy by the Who, but these came later). $2.59 for a mono LP, $3.59 for stereo at Montgomery Wards. If you bought them at a smaller record store, $3.98 mono and $4.98 stereo.
Never be a time like this again. I was a toddler
Gotta use our imagination I guess. Things seemed simpler then.
Having come of age during the years hightlighted here, it was the best and will never happen again, if I can use a quote by Abbie Hoffman. Are the politiccal and societal changes being left out? They were the best, too! All of these issues drove one another.
Great presentation, my kind of channel. I only listen to 60s British bands and music from the continent. My absolute favorite time. Fab.
All your videos are top notch!
Thank you 🙏 appreciate your kind words
Today we live for convenience , we stay on the internet and we know no shame. That is the difference between now and 1965.
I was 17, in school and in a band as guitarist. Spend the whole Summer in Spain, in a period tourism there was not as it's now. But one could hear Satisfaction on the radio. Up to this very day, most guitar I play is Flamengo.
Awesome
Talk about "The Peace Dividend." Us Baby Boomers had it all. Thanks to the end of WW2 the US (victors) could just about write our own ticket to happiness. Strong dollar, most nations buying from us because their nations were either third world or destroyed by the war. And the middle class was also growing and strong politically. Now look at us! But again we had it all, and this period of US history will never be seen again.
I'm a boomer, 1946, and recall how good & simple everything was. Then Vietnam, the hippie movement & the drug culture came along. Life changed. But we did have some of the best rock-and-roll music.

Spectacular content here. hah, you asked for suggestions and I just rattled off a few on your recent Laurel Canyon episode.
Truly, it was a hallowed privileged time, growing up while all this music was percolating around in the UK & US. Halcyon days.
Imagine a massive tax break being given to the working class, stimulating a growth explosion of prosperity as happened in the 60's and after WWII, instead of trump's massive $4trillion permanent tax break to corporations and the wealthiest, which never trickled down, not one GD bit, fancy that!? They just took their massive earnings & orchestrated stock buy-backs for investors and stockholders. And gave CEO's raises.
Meanwhile the homeless population is growing as people lose their homes for inability to pay for rent/mortgage, clothe their kids & buy medicine & food. No one does anything about it and won't, until people wise up and put progressives back into Majority and the WH. They care about people's Rights, Women's Health & Reproductive autonomy, fair pay, worker's rights, children, education and the underserved. oops. sorry. I jumped up on my soapbox there w/o even knowing. all done. 😆
The world can never recapture or recreate the innocent evolution of music that happened naturally back then. It was amazing!
Yes that's the thing - it all happened naturally.
Can't recreate, no matter how hard they try.
Has the natural evolution in popular music, rock specifically, reached the limit?
Too much yadda yadda not enough music.
DISAPOINTED ! ! ! Was looking to see a "TODAY'S" comparison. Being 75 (& British) I lived through that period but have no idea of what the music scene is like TODAY ! The occasional stuff I hear sound's rather mediocar and multi RECYCLED. What's so fantastic about Taylor Swift ??????????? Beyond me.
I hear ya!
I feelthat the music mattered more in 1960-70s than later, or, especially, now. I am afraid we are going to experience just lots of souless AI-generated music, books, poetry, photography, graphic design & movie.
.... too short..... die Musik Beispiele sind zu kurz
warum...
diese Eile...
why the hurry....??
I can’t go longer due to copyright
Gerorge Harrison had his tonsils removed in 1969. Rings had his removed in dec 64. Check your facts mate
US attitudes may have been optimistic in '65, but the US "intervention" in Vietnam was escalating and would shortly spiral out of control, and the military draft would dominate the lives of male US youth. The music and other popular culture in the US, fueled by the "British invasion," was developing at an unprecedented pace not seen since the '20s and that will probably never be seen again due to media management that swooped in to quell the uprising and has held US popular culture in its grip since. Witness the suppression of British "glamrock" and the US and European "new wave" rock that soon followed. Hopefully the expansion of cyberspace and the other technological advancements since then provide an opportunity for the kind of cultural innovation we enjoyed in the '60s. Get out of line again, "kids!"
