In this episode, we explore the changing sound of rock, the emergence of youth-driven counterculture, and the artists who were ready to push the boundaries.
From the performances of Chubby Checker and The Everly Brothers to the early stirrings of what would become the British Invasion, 1960 was a year of innovation and anticipation. Rock was shifting from its early roots to something new, preparing for the explosion of creativity that would define the decade.
