Back to my early days of record collecting and the sounds of 1965. I had just started high school that year and was getting excited about going to dances and loving music.
I started exploring the record stores in our neighborhood and some of the ones downtown.
I was also listening to more recommendations from other musicians in my high school band (I played clarinet and sax) and also with the older guys from my Philly Mummers string band. Later on I would go out to see live music with these guys too but that would be another year or so.
1965 was also the year I really discovered Bob Dylan. Sure, I'd heard about him but I didn't really start to listen to him until then. The same could also almost be said about The Beatles.
The mix runs for a little over an hour and a half and here is a link to the playlist on Spotify.
