the doors, but only a half of them !

The Salvation Army Band that has been playing on the local street corner, third Sunday of every month since 1961....



ROCKMAN

The Hollies
The Troggs
Brian Wilson
Everley Bros
Even Elvis's band is on the road......


Probably nearly all of the 1960's bands are still around in various re-incarnations.

Golden Earing (Netherlands) they started in early sixties and still going on.

Savage Rose
Michael Jackson ( ? )
David Bowie
Mountain
Ten Years After
Alrune Rod

etc...

interesting that so many of you have listed solo artists, not bands -
is it really the same thing?

Almost all the bands.

In that case i might aswell add Chuck Berry

Chuckster wouldnt be from the 60s would he?
Aint he a 50s phenomenon primarily...

I wouldn't say 50's primarily - I'd say all the way through.
But to ask for bands from the 50s still going, the list would be much shorter.

Interesting aspect.
Might there be a breaking point in mid-60´s?
Those artists often are 65 or older.

I wonder if the artists of my generation
(say people in the 40´s-45) will still play while
60-70? I doubt it. But oin the other hand:
what can they do? Bono in for a new education... ?

Just wondering, what's going to happen when the 60'ies band are gone....

Seems like they are the ones dominating the music stage.....

Barely any of new bands last longer than 2-3 years....

Rumors said that Pink Floyd would reform for a Tour.

John Fogerty

The Grass Roots

Mountian

the shadows
bruce welch hank marvin brian bennett and a new bassist

Procol Harum

I think the Shadows have just done or soon will do their farewell tour

Add Marianne Faithfull to that list
John Mayalls Bluesbreakers
Bob Dylan, of course

The Guess Who!!!!

All of those 60s artists maybe performing as such, but in terms of actually creating anything of artistic worth, we're probably down to just Paul McCartney. His Chaos & Creation album is quite simply brilliant, and I would never have dreamed that I would ever say that about one of his records.

Dylan aside, the rest is parody and at worst cabaret.

Ten years After

Or was that a 70s band.

Not one single band anyone has mentioned is touring with all of its original members. The only 60s band that HAS toured recently with all ORIGINAL members is Vanilla Fudge .... unless Cream performing in London and New York can be considered "touring" .... and unless Crosby, Stills, and Nash (first album released in '69) can be considered a 60s band.
