Going back and checking it
out, ready for some more; hit that floor the great days
are back again. That's
a line from a 1982 tight fit record called back to the sixties. Many party DJs will plonk this on when asked to play 60s music as it includes many number 1 hits of the 60s mixed up with an up tempo dance beat. However for your 60s music theme night you dont just want a party dance mix, you want the real thing.
60s Music Mobile Disco
The sixties are often referred to as a watershed in the
UK youth culture, what went before was swept away by the
kids who just wanted to do their own thing. The seeds of
this change may well have been sown in the 50s when rationing
was still in effect and the country was recovering from
the war. By contrast the American economy was booming and
a new wave of popular music, rock 'n' roll was taking the
music charts by storm. The young people of Britain wanted
the same up tempo beat music as the Americans and were developing
their own independent rock'n'roll sounds like Skiffle. Skiffle
was a fusion of folk, jazz and rhythm & blues and helped
ensure the teen scene had arrived. The 1960s saw popular
music groups from the UK like the Beatles, Kinks and the
Rolling Stones became world famous.
However not all acts took themselves so seriously Screaming
Lord Such confessed a total lack of vocal talent but made
many records anyway. Pro Mobile DJ Jim's mum used to organise
dances back in the early 60s and regularly booked acts like
Lord Such and said "although his singing was terrible
the outrageous show was a spectacle in itself, he has probably
influenced many other stage performers since". Music
was no longer just about the music but also the stage performance.
