The Oldies Music That Forged the Counterculture Revolution
The counterculture revolution of
the 1960s is one of the most important steps in western cultural development of
the 20th Century. From the very beginning, music was a big source of its
driving force, bestowing to the achievements that it assisted to bring about,
but also placing some of the foundations for its downfall.
With a central point around the US
and the UK, its effect spread throughout western civilization and beyond, but
where it all began is difficult to say.
Music was at the heart of it all
and Oldies music gave the people of
the counterculture revolution new sources of inspiration and a center around
which to base their satisfaction with the established order of play.
In addition to the bands and songs
that talked about to protest in one way or another, there were also those that
talked about freedom in general, pushing the rules of convention to their outer
limits. The music undergrounds lyrics for example include references to different
types of music play in a way that had never been seen before, while many bands
are cited as big proponents of peace, love and understanding.
One of the biggest things in music
to develop out of the counter culture of the 60s and early 70s is the large-scale
music festival. Folk festivals were well established in the early sixties. This
type of festival has become so popular in recent years is a belief to the
musical bequest of the 60s.
