60s Compilation, not so obvious choices.

This is a most enjoyable thread, unfortunately I am now steeped in the despair of nostalgia, reliving my halcyon days.
There are surely more geriatric pfm'ers to contribute to this thread with a host of songs to offer. Please.

Groover! You have just made my day! I've been trying to pin down a piece of music that I thought was associated with the Tokyo Olympics way back when and LO and BEHOLD it's Tokyo Melody in your list. Thanks very much for that (it's on Spotify right now!) :D:D:D Kendo.
 
No 60s compilation should be w/out some Mitch Ryder and the Detroit Wheels..


Sheer energy.

The album it came from has just been reissued on Vocalion..... 'Teatime In Tokyo'.
 
To ressurect the thread (possibly), I have found this site http:\\www.rateyourmusic.com Under the charts banner just change the menu to whatever you are looking for. 60's, 70's. and the year, singles, albums etc.
I've just spent a couple of hours steeped in nostalgia and I'm compiling my own 'compilation' from the listings. Now its time to beg, steal or borrow the desired tracks.
Its amazing how many songs you forget.
 
White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane
I'm Waiting for the Man - Velvet Underground
Little Wing - Jimi Hendrix
I'm Not Saying - Nico
Jumpin' Jack Flash - Rolling Stones
 
Spencer Davis Group. I'm a Man.
Small Faces. Sha La La La Lee
Honeybus. I Can't Let Maggie Go
Nirvana . Rainbow Chaser
Kinks. See My Friend
Happenings. I Got Rhythm
Mamas and Papas. I Saw Her Again
Lemon Pipers. Green Tambourine
Yardbirds. Evil Hearted You
Tony Joe White. Polk Salad Annie
Turtles. She'd Rather Be With Me
Shocking Blue. Venus
Exciters Tell Him
etc., etc.
