Favourite Songs of the '60s on YouTube

God bless YouTube. You can pretty much see anything you want, from old episodes of Read All About It! to videos by The Lonely Island. People are also posting videos of really cool songs from the '60s by videotaping their turntables going at it. It's a cool way to get to songs that have been nearly lost to the dustbin of history.

Take this video of The Innocence's "There's Got To Be A Word!" from 1966. I have the 45 rpm in question, thanks to my dad's record collection. It's pretty atypical of what my dad was listening to at the time (namely, anything having to do with The Byrds), but this was one is a gorgeous song nevertheless.

I also have the 45 of the Left Banke's "Walk Away Renee", which you can view a fanmade video of here. It's a lovely song, and, rightfully so, landed in Rolling Stone magazine's Top 500 Songs Of All Time. The follow-up, "Pretty Ballerina" is also posted as a video of a song playing on someone's turntable here.

Then, there's the Syndicate of Sound's "Little Girl" which, yep, someone has taped playing on their turntable here. I have that on 45, along with the Critters "Younger Girl" (on a related note) which you can view here.

Lots of stuff on that YouTube.
