1960s Revolution: Protest Songs, Psychedelic Rock & Art Quiz

The Times They Are a-Changin'

The 1960s was arguably the most explosive decade in music history. What started as the earnest Folk Revival (led by Bob Dylan and Joan Baez) quickly mutated into the amplified sounds of the British Invasion and the experimental, drug-influenced world of Psychedelic Rock.

Art and Activism

Music became the soundtrack to social upheaval. From the anti-war rage of Creedence Clearwater Revival to the solemn reflection in songs like "Ohio" (written after the Kent State shootings), artists were political voices. Simultaneously, studio wizards like The Beatles pioneered new sonic frontiers using backward recording and tape loops, while album covers became elaborate works of psychedelic art, creating a total sensory experience for the listener.

Turn On, Tune In, Test Out

Put on your headphones, remember Woodstock, and prove you are a true student of this revolutionary decade.
