In this episode, Pete talks to the great rock writer Anthony DeCurtis about how world events affected the music of 1968 and vice versa. It was a seminal year for music, with new releases by the Beatles, the Rolling Stones, the Velvet Underground, Jimi Hendrix, and much more. Pete and Adam discuss some of the other music fighting for the ears of America, from bubblegum to adult contemporary, which also appeared on the charts in '68.

Goodies:

Music Playlist: The Billboard Top 40 songs (from #40 to #1) from December 7, 1968. It's a mix of classic rock, R&B, soul, bubblegum, and adult contemporary songs, and it's a great snapshot into what America was listening to at the time.
