Product Description

In tune with the interest in oldies music, this book spotlights the once-famous performers who recorded those cherished songs and timeless albums so strongly imprinted on the millions of Americans growing up in the 1960s. Based on dozens of conversations with performers, talent agents, personal managers, and booking agents, the book includes the life experiences of 43 individuals--solo artists, bands, and singing group members-from Sam the Sham and the Pharaohs and The Beau Brummels to Gary "U.S." Bonds and Peter and Gordon.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review of Echoes of the Sixties, December 4, 1999

By A Customer

This is an honest, truthful, profile of 43 of the most popular Rock Stars from the 60's. Written after in depth interviews with the stars themselves, it tells their histories and what they are doing now. How their Rock fame affected their lives. It is fun to read and really brings back memories. Highly recommended!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, Honest Writing, December 6, 1999

By A Customer

This book was so great. I espically liked the Gary Puckett and the Union Gap section. I am from San Diego, CA and it is cool to hear where they are now, and what their lives have been like. For the music lover this is a great selection!
