60@60 1965 Albums

Here is my list of 60 favorite albums from my collection released in 1965. I was mostly buying singles at this time and the albums on the list were collected over the late 60s and early 70s.

I was definitely into a lot of Motown and folk back then along with the British Invasion stuff. Looking back on it now I guess things haven't changed much.

Rubber Soul is probably my favorite Beatles album and it was also the first album by any artist I replaced on CD in the late 80s. Highway 61 Revisited might be my favorite Dylan album although Blonde on Blonde is right up there too.
