Decade of Hits: The 60's

Overview

The pop music of the 1960s was in constant transition as the previous decade of late-period jazz hits, Tin Pan Alley pop, and polished-up-for-radio Broadway musical selections gave way to the first huge tidal wave of rock & roll. This three-disc, 75-track collection provides a generous helping of some of this tumultuous era's biggest hits, including Chubby Checker's "The Twist," Elvis Presley's "Surrender," Del Shannon's "Runaway," and the Crystals' "He's a Rebel," among many others. ~ Steve Leggett
