Well, that was my youth. Beatles or Stones.? the stones for me.

under the boardwalk---down by the sea

there was good and bad. escalation of the vietnam conflict. but you had the surgeon general's report, too. so, i like some of those years, yeah....

Here's one that do...1965 is the unbeatable year for rock-albums, and I start with Highway 61 Revisited!

I was both conceived and born in that period. So, yes, I like it.

mary poppins and sound of music, too, let's not forget.

Of course. Who can forget those dreamy years. Stonemania. Blues at the peak. Let's just imagine they rerecord those masterpieces in Aftermath. They did not calculate.

I personally love it myself. it is a glimpse of the band getting tighter and musically better w/ each yr!

"Well my heavy throbbers itchin' just to lay a solid rhythm down"

Love those years. I was 13 - 17 years old and the Stones and Beatles were the thing. The music from that era brings back some great memories.

freakin ~*YEAH!*~
can't get enough

I was born much later, but the early Beatles (everything up to and including Help!) were my favorite part of their output.

As for the Stones, 12x5 and Aftermath (UK) are my favorite albums of theirs. Also, their singles output rocked. Long, Long While is probably their 20th best song of that era, and it's amazing.

Of course, who doesn't like Aftermath, Out Of Our Heads, Between the Buttons, Satisfaction etc. - it was during those years that the base for Stones was created. Without it, no Stones.

Love this period.

Look at this from those years - who needs a b-stage. U2 claiming they were the inventors!!!

my Stones period ---63--67--

We all are young, middle-aged; old, and then we die...if we're lucky. But we don't get any choice as to when we are born. And as great as it would be to be young now, I am glad to have been born at a time when I could experience the 60s. It was clearly the high point of the century.

i had a couple of choices - i picked 1959 cos it looked like rock'n'roll was really here to stay then....

out of our heads, aftermath and the rest. Oh my oh my. GREAT!

The Beatles, The Stones, Creedence, Pretty things, Kinks, Janis, Jimi...

And NO U2, Guns and roses, Nirvana...

Oh yes, I like that period!

Rolling Stones, any year

Mick's rock, I'm roll.

Fun loving and well documented

Harum Scarum was true Oscar bait

Are you kidding? Pat O' Day, The Rolling Stones, The Beatles, The Sonics, (The Witch, Psycho) Bob Dylan, Johnny Cash, Muhammad Ali, (Cassius Clay) Joe Willie Namath, Jack Nicklaus, Ron Musson and the '63-'65 Miss Bardahl, Bill Muncey and Miss Thriftway, Billy Schumacher and the '67 Miss Bardahl, The Man With No Name, Barney Fife, Don Rickles, Wilt Chamberlain and Bill Russell, etc., etc., etc., etc..

Amazing that many of them (Pat O' Day, The Stones, McCartney, The Sonics, Eastwood, Barney Fife, Rickles, etc.) are still rolling 43 years later!

Autumn 65-Autumn 66 - the best year for singles ever. Post r'n'b and pre-psychedelia.

That was the period where music still mattered
1965 Satisfaction on Veronica and Radio Caroline
pure magic

I was/am with ya Havo, all the way.

Sure I do! Much like the Beatles they moved from 3 chords rock songs (63) to something musically extremely sophisticated (67)... except they did it WAY better than the "Fab" Four did...

To me it's been the years when I really discovered music and the Brian Jones Stones!!

The last Time, Satisfaction, Paint it black, Let's spend the night together . .

Great years (to me from b&w to colour)!

I'm from 1955 and I remember the sensation of the Beatles (I got Yesterday as a birthday present) and shortly after them those rebellious Rolling Stones with even longer hair than the Beatles very well. Wonderful and unprecedented. They made your imagination as a young boy work at full speed. It definitely were the Beatles and Stones years, symbols of a new period in history. One could feel it in the air!

Yes!
