The sixties was a highly interesting period musically and stylistically. It was the time of the Vietnam war, free love, experimentation with drugs, sex and some radical political changes. Musically, rock'n roll was developing into something more like what we are listening to today and there was also a lot of great jazz music, Beat music (e.g. The Beatles), soul / Motown, Bossa Nova / Latin jazz and early Funk.
