The 5th Dimension - Don'tcha Hear Me Callin' To Ya (1969)
More b-side treasure that I recently picked up. The a-side is the Aquarius/Let the Sunshine Medley, a track I could definitely be happy to never hear again, but this infinitely more soulful track is really great.

And now we reach the end of the 1960s. In the songs listed, we can see the psychedelic label applying to several genres, such as psychedelic pop and psychedelic soul. From psychedelic soul, we can easily see how disco will start to solidify in the coming years, but that genre will also derive from a wide variety of other subgenres. We'll get to that eventually.
The addition of Sugar Sugar also gives me a chance to talk about bubblegum music (or bubblegum pop, in this case). The term is both used to describe the genre from both the musical and the business side of its formation (I suppose it's similar to the modern use of "industry plant"), but I'll focus on the former. Essentially, bubblegum was used to classify music that was sounded sweet and chipper, but didn't appear to have the artistic integrity of other styles. The bubblegum pop of the late 60's and early 70's took a lot of influence from garage rock, but it was derided for not having that genre's sense of edge or scrappiness. This isn't my opinion, I'm just stating the origins of the term and how it was talked about at the time.
The shift from the 60's to the 70's is going to be a bit more apparent than the transitional stage between other decades. And here, we can see the foundations (hah.) of sounds that will come to define the following decade.
And with that, thank you for joining me through the 1960s. I'll see you all in the 70's.

MUSIC MONDAY: "Close To You: Soulful Burt Bacharach Covers" (LISTEN)
by Marlon West (FB: marlon.west1 Twitter: @marlonw IG: stlmarlonwest Spotify: marlonwest) Happy Black History Month, you all. Now it might seem counterintuitive to use my February offering to feature and honor Burt Bacharach, who died on February 8 at age 94. The prolific composer, songwriter, record producer, and pianist is widely regarded as one of the most important and influential figures of…
