1967: The Greatest Year in Pop Music History, February 1, 2008
By Eric Marshall (Hammond, IN United States)
In a review that I did about three years ago here about the Joni Mitchell album "Blue" I argued that 1971 was the greatest year in Rock and Roll history. But what about pop music in general? That would go to 1967 because it was the first year records sales went over a billion dollars and it was the only year in which all the genres-Rock, pop, soul, country, blues, jazz, etc. came together (check all the songs that came out that year). It was the year in which The Beatles album "Sgt. Pepper Lonely Hearts Club Band" took everyone off guard and to have it at the center of the music year is beyond explaination. Of course, it was the summer that was known as "The Summer of Love" and as what author Joel Slevin wrote in the first paragraph to his book of that title: "'The Summer of Love NEVER happened. It was a creation of the media." Speaking of that Rolling Stone magazine, as part of their 40th anniversary as a publication, did an entire issue to that year and the highlight comes from an essay written by U.S. historian Sean Wilentz called "The Legacy of '67" and he writes that it was the defining year of the 60's because it was that year 'the generation gap' arised up and believes that the term "summer of love" and the emergance of hippies was a sign that America was having a nervous breakdown and I think he hints at the fact that it started with the murder of President Kennedy four years earlier (the greatest tragedy in American history because the 60's never happens had he lived). And with that, music itself began to come apart after 1967 beginning with the "nightmare alley" that was 1968 and as the decade ended, the medium joined America as it too was having a nervous breakdown (I think music is still having it) filled with songs of drugs ("George left his home in Tuscon, Arizona for some California grass"), talk of Vietnam ("It wasn't me that started that crazy Asian war"), and bad language ("Kicks out the jams mother----er!"; "Because I'm the son of a bitch that named you Sue"). So here it is more than 40 years after it happened and now this country is having another nervous breakdown over things that was started by stupid people. That makes me scared to death considering that we don't have music to shut off every problem for a few minutes. That's what the artists in 1967 did. Oh did I mention that another fact to why '67 was great from all the rest was that there wasn't a single song released by "The Artist of the 60's" Bob Dylan?
