The Sensationals

The 60’s was a time when rock music came of age and dominated the music charts. There was the British invasion headed by The Beatles. Elvis continued to score many hits while a wave of amazing artists such as Buddy Holly, Tina Turner and Neil Diamond came to prominence.  Groups such as The Rolling Stones, The Doors, The Shadows and Creedence Clearwater Revival made their mark. Blended in were the unique sounds of Motown and Country while music festivals sprouted everywhere. The early 70’s was unfortunately marked by the deaths of some significant musicians. At the same time a variety of new rock styles began to emerge. Who could forget the disco domination with artists such as Jackson 5, The Village People and ABBA. Alternative rock emerged from groups such as the The Cars and The Ramones and soulful music continued from Marvin Gaye, Aretha Franklin and The Carpenters. We were truly blessed!
