There are lots of songs that I love from the late '60s, and it would be hard to narrow them down to ten, let alone order them into which ones I like the most. But here are ten, in no particular order:

More Today Than Yesterday - Spiral Staircase
Angel Of The Morning - Merrilee Rush and the Turnabouts
The Rain, The Park And Other Things - Cowsills
Baby, It's You - Smith
Master Jack - Four Jacks and a Jill
A Man Without Love - Engelbert Humperdinck
Soulful Strut - Young Holt Unlimited
Happy Together - Turtles
Elenore - Turtles
Ain't No Mountain High Enough - Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell

Good selection...I haven't heard a few of those. Must admit I don't like the 'Sugar, Sugar' song much...

I'm a flower child born in the wrong decade. :)

Me too! I often feel I'd be MUCH more at home in the late 60s...I'm not much of a hippie, but I love the whole scene, and the freeness of it all. Probably more idealised than it really was, tho.
