Today on Popart, the sixteenth part of the series Schatgraven (Treasure Hunt), centred around the year 1967. The year of the legendary “Summer of Love”, first in San Francisco and later on in London as well. The big hits of that year remind us of these days, like “A Whiter Shade of Pale” of Procol Harum, “All You Need Is Love” of the Beatles and of course natuurlijk “San Francisco” of Scott McKenzie. 1967 was also the year of classic pop albums like “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band”, “The Velvet Underground & Nico” and “Forever Changes” of the band Love. But we don’t play any of this. We mainly play tracks by artists who have been forgotten or would only become known to large audiences later on.
