Music- 1966- a very good year today

Checking the L.A.Radio.com's http://www.laradio.com/ "Flashback" featured songs today brought a quick recollection of another good period of music and times to mind, a full year before leaving high school and a year after the Watts Riot. The coming summer would be good and the next year's summer was "The Summer of Love" with "Monterey Pop" happening in June 1967. This was a good time musically and more was to come.

The top five songs on April 24, 1966 were:
Good Lovin’ by the Young Rascals, Soul & Inspiration by the Righteous Brothers, Monday Monday by the Mamas & Papas, Sloop John B by the Beach Boys, Secret Agent Man by Johnny Rivers.
