Can you remember them?
1960s This is the one of the best presentations of the sixties that I have ever seen online. It is very well done. Just click on the link and sit back and enjoy the memories. Great photos and facts. Click below. If you're too young to remember the 60's, sit back and learn something! http://objflicks.com/TakeMeBackToTheSixties.htm -- John H. |

I got this from another ng. It brings back the good times. Something no
one knows since Big Business has taken not just our money but the good times. I got a part time job just to buy a 64 427 Galaxie. Black with black interior. All your Chevy guys could only drool. http://objflicks.com/TakeMeBackToTheSixties.htm |

Load up the car with a bunch of teenagers, jump out, at the light and race around, to the other seat before it changes. I want to stop at an old bridge in the country and strip to skivies and jump right in. I;m tired of being sick and tired. Ain't a gonna do it anymore. |

If you're too young to remember the 60's, sit back and learn something! http://objflicks.com/TakeMeBackToTheSixties.htm -- John H. The music and photos were a nice trip down memory lane, but I thought the text messages got a bit preachy at times. For me, the video that I've linked below hit much closer to home. Earlier this year, Tom Hanks inducted the Dave Clark Five into the Rock 'n Roll Hall of Fame. At first blush, it might seem odd that Hanks would be chosen to make the induction. But Tom is a quintessential baby boomer, and in a brilliant ten and a half minute presentation, he absolutely captures zeitgeist of what it was like growing up as a middle-class kid in suburbia circa 1963-1964. I've never before or since heard a more eloquent and spot-on telling of how pop culture helped lift us from the dark days of late 1963. Even though the DC5 was the primary focus of the presentation, the underlying theme of rock 'n roll facilitating sadness turning to joy was really the part that hit home for me. I remember those days like yesterday. I saw the broadcast live, and it is one of the best pieces of oratory I've ever heard. The video is 26 minutes long, but only the first 13 minutes are of importance. The first three minutes are nothing more than video clips of the DC5, but Tom takes the podium at 3:00 and lets loose. If you stay with it for the next 10 and a half minutes, I promise you'll be rewarded. Tom ends his induction speech at 13:30. Enjoy http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KKTtGjYl5yU |
