I think Hole in my Shoe was the first record I bought just after my Dad bought a stereogram.I must have been about 13. Psychedelic pop is still my favourite music. Oh and blues.

[@SloopyDog]

At 74 I'm a worn-out hippy. I managed to live through and love the sixties. A fantastic time in my life. I still get the rush when I listen to sixties and seventies music now. I have no time for rap music or the boring music of today. In today's virus troubles we need something to give us a lift. I am sure there is still plenty of talent in the singers of today, they just seem to have lost their way musically.

[@saintgeorge6706]

I feel the same way. I'm 63 and detest hip-hop and modern music. Music of the past lifted people up and made a deep and lasting positive impression on their lives. I feel sorry for the younger generation of today. Never having had that life enhancing experience.

[@davidrichards6835]

No, it’s just that things from your past always seem better as you tend to remember the nice bits - I’m 67 but I find musicians now are every bit as good as they ever were or ever will be: just open your ears to it all while taking pleasure from having a personal back catalogue that extends over your lifetime.

[@saintgeorge6706]

Sad but true. We thought the music was always going to be that good. We were waiting for another Beatles! which seems more and more ridiculous today.

[@peterglynn2128]

So lucky to have experienced the 60s music. There is nothing today that comes anywhere near being this good !! So many talented bands !!

[@2ridiculous41]

There is always great music. Claiming generational exceptionalism is either plain nostalgia or narcissism. I used to see Traffic play in pubs in London including the night Save Mason left the band the first time and they payed as a trio..

[@timsears951]

of course nothing compares ...it was the 60s ...todays music s no longer about us,,,its a new generation...love it or hate it .....you either embrace todays new music or you dont...its no longer our time ...its their time...

We had so much choice of music to choose from ,,,Wow it was a fantastic time to live through ,,,,never to be repeated xxlol

[@andymatthews7617]

I want to go back

[@whitewizzardllc2348]

Yeah I’ve gone through this all philosophically and I disagree. It’s not just nostalgia. The whole world was on a crest of a wave that broke. There is still good music yes. But the overall dynamic of how good the mainstream was and how it effected culture is not the same. The amount of venues and the scenes it created. It was an incredible thing. There will never be another 60s counter culture, 70s madness and 80s MTV generation or 90s Seattle. It was a hell of a run in the 2nd half of the 20th century. That goes for all aspects of western culture. It’s just not as magical now. I’m just happy I got to experience most of it. Yes you can find good music now-but I can differentiate between nostalgia and the fact it’s just not as good. It’s not.

[@peterfrazer1943]

When I was in Aden in 1967, a street patrol of Royal Marines was in a dangerous area and we had Bullet up the spout ready for instant action. One of the lads tripped and put a round through his foot. At that time, Forces Favourites was a request show on BBC Radio played World Wide, on a Sunday. While he was in Hospital, it came on the Radio, " This a request for Marine +++++ in, R.A.F.

Traffic's first album "Heaven Is In Your Mind" is one of the best examples of tripping out with headphones. The speaker phasing is incredible, and the songs are connected (no dead space) thru sound sampling various cuts off the album. This is so subtle that it requires headphones, most people probably missed this trippy feature.

This stereo mix brings back to me for the first time almost exactly the same magic of this song that I experienced in the late sixties. It captures the quality of the original mono mix in stereo - what is very seldom achieved. I'm able to even persue the flute throughout the mix!

[@1in1000000]

I love the sound of this song, especially the “letting in water“ echoey part. It reminds me of the Moody Blues song, “Nice to Be Here”, and Donovan’s “The Magpie”. All three are gentle and childlike. There was a reason we were called flower children. That’s the part of hippie culture I appreciated the most: the gentleness and innocence.

As a child from a very conservative family , this beautiful piece (along with songs from The Beatles, The Move, The Master's Apprentices & lots, LOTS more) provided a window into a world I very much wanted to inhabit. Music, literature and art shaped - and continue to shape - my adult life. Young musicians such as Traffic profoundly shaped what I listened to, read and heard and I will be forever thankful. Now - who WAS that child who provided the spoken middle break? I'm sure there's a story there that needs to be told! & yes, I still own my picture sleeve single of "Hole In My Shoe" - a treasured personal artefact.

This brings back so many memories. Jimmy Capoldi used to live a few doors from my aunt on Battleton Road , Fairfield , Evesham. His younger brother , Phil, is/was the same age as me. Another great name is 60's/70's music from Fairfield was Luther Grosvenor. He played one of the meanest guitars around, but never got the recognition he deserved.

[@tomhits]

I do agree with what you are saying, however both bands weren´t what you would have called "mainstream beat" then. I was a young guitarist then and admired both bands and listening to Spooky Tooth´"Evil Woman" for the first (and not the last) time and Grosvenor´s mad mad guitar simply blew me away!

Hello Claudia.. how are things going with you?

[@SloopyDog]

To right Phil. The hairs on the back of my neck still stand up when I hear 60s music. Unfortunately at 66 that's all that stands up now!

This was the first single I ever bought, I was 13 and ordered it from our local electrical store, they also sold a few records, and I think had one listening booth, I am pleased to say I still have the single. Thanks so much for posting and all the info.

Late summer 1967 loved this and Smiling Phases. Played it to death - both sides equally. Still got my copy in the picture sleeve as well.

As a 15-yearold i I was present at their first gig, which took place in Oslo in the spring of '67. A special memory - for certain.

[@johnnyhmash]

even those deliberate off notes on the sitar are a sheer joy.Also, those 70s albums mentioned are very good.John Barleycorn. etc.Bravo.

Ahh how beautiful, An Olympic studio one recording , Producer Jimmy Miller and perhaps Eddie Kramer ... valve microphones, totally analogue, four-track I imagine, absurdly compressed drums, A total joy to hear fifty-two years later, still magical; we lived through a wonderous time for music and being alive. xxx

[@andrewzeegers]

this song played a key-role in my up-growing... also I was about 9 years old, this song was the threshold, stepping into the inner world of hippie, music, love and all the rest,, and never leaving afterwords....... there was something in the air in those days... like a releasing of light, you could allmost touch it, you knew, if you looked in the eyes of someone, immediately, if you could trust that person or not, those were heavenly days....

i.remember.hating school and the strict regime at home being a teenager in the sixtieis was no easy task but when this drifted over the airwaves everything seemed all right with the world dave mason at his trippiest best

[@ramondool]

I remember that feeling Chris.

[@walterceuppens6988]

So do I , and I 'm Belgian(!)

[@stephensmith799]

Yes. It was because the 60s were so s**t for most of us that this music happened. It really could not continue the way it was, with cruel, vindictive and violent school teachers (who should have been jailed) and miserable expectations of what our lives were going to be like.

[@WS-1]

If you don`t remember things that way , then ,you weren`t there , but to be fair the music was driven by the resultant rebellion .

[@chazsach6594]

Absolutely correct.

This brings back so many memories of my teenage years.76 now
