Next year will be the 50th anniversary of 1966 - the year that author Jon Savage hails as the one that shaped the future of pop music. This bumper 48-track double CD is the soundtrack to Savage's book of the same name, which is released by Faber & Faber on November 19th.
After 1966 nothing would ever be the same again as new ideas, drugs, an explosion of creativity and freedom of expression on both sides of the Atlantic led to the recording of the songs found here. It features some of the biggest artists of the time - the Who, the Velvets, Dusty Springfield, Love, Otis Redding, the Four Tops, James Brown - a fantastic mixture of musical styles and genres.
The package includes a 24-page booklet with a 9000 word note by Savage, so you can enjoy this as a stand-alone listening experience as well as the soundtrack to the book.
