  Still waters run deep,... but not necessarily do the rapids, 2005-04-30
Ultimately a companion piece to the TV mini-series about the 60's,this collection of music treads rather familiar ground duplicated in one fashion or another on numerous other collections/compiliations (albiet with improved sound).
br /
br /For the sake of brevity it is a quick way of purchasing a sampling of the mainstream music that dominated the Era, but falls way short of making any kind of definitive statement. The breakdown of the 3 cds into "themes" (ahem) is really quite arbitrary if anyone who live during that period examines the choices (frm 1960-1970 I was 8-18 yrs old,moving frm Ohio to San Francisco during the summer of love).
br /
br /It seems the designers of this package emphasize Vietnam as a dominant "theme" (ahem) for at least 2 of the 3 disks...excluding other possible choices to focus on. In our age of terrorism and warfare in Iraq it seems too easy an association for convienience sake.
br /
br /Other themes of equal importance (arguably), and perhaps a more interesting theme listing might include; The British Invasion, The Underground Scene, Consciousness Experimentation (non-drug), Consciousness Expansion (drug), Counter-culture kitsch, The Advent of FM radio,...to name a few. Sure,some of these tracks apply,but only in a radio friendly (MOR+AM) sense.
br /
br /Nothing here really ventures into challenging territory, and if anything, challenge and confrontation were the essence of this Era besides the incense'n peppermints.
br /If only 1 track adventurously broke the 2-3min time restaints I'd of added a star.
br /Sure, I'm not expecting the full length 'Inna-godda-davita' of Iron Butterfly, but I'd a been more than thrilled with the full Chambers Brother's 'Time Has Come Today'.
br /
br /Bottom line: this is The 60's Experience for the lazy. Seek and you shall find, better collections are out there. PEACE
