I’m not the only one who’s into the era. This is a French lass called Mareva Galanter.

Yes, more 1960s. Along with heaps of other eras, it is one of my favourites. But despite my epochal infidelity, I do have a special place for the music of the early 60s, no doubt from the primacy of the Beatles in my early music appreciation development. Maybe too it’s because it’s when my parents were young.

I prefer 1950s style, there’s a certain dumpy ugliness about the 1960s. But like a comfortable but unflattering sweater, the 1960s seem more like home.

Mmmm… I’m rambling. Here’s Francoise Hardy lamenting that all the girls and boys of her age are in love except for her.

Would appear that I’m in a 60s mood…

… because you don’t own me

How lovely is Lesley Gore in this early 60s clip? I once tried to get my hair to do that but with little success.
