The Everly Brothers - Bye Bye Love:
Pretty neat little song. Pretty catchy. At the beginning of the song it sounded like something more modern was going to come out, but then it kinda turned and went south. One thing that is different is that the vocals just sound not brassy or anything like the other stuff I have heard with this stuff. Sounds like something I would typically listen to.
The Youngbloods - Let's Get Together:
This piece actually feels more like a poem than a song, but it still provides a harmonious tune thats an easy listener. The chorus really says it all,
"C'mon people now,
Smile on your brother
Ev'rybody get together
Try and love one another right now"
Great song that provides an uplifting message. Something that is kinda nice to hear every once in a while.
Sly and the Family Stone - I Want To Take You Higher:
Why this song intrigued me was because of its very different sound compared to so many of the other songs I heard on the list. What really made it different was its funk feel. Rather than guitar drums and a bass, it incorporated other instruments like the trumpet, the keyboard, and the harmonica. Kinda interesting how they have various solos between the guitar, harmonica, bass and trumpet. Makes the song kinda longer, but because of its sustaining beat, it all works out. Great vocals as well. However, it does get pretty repetitive. Not much of a vocal song as it is more an instrumental song. It also lacks a real ending to bring down the power. Maybe it was planned that way.
