For those who think good music is hard to come by these days, I suggest tuning into Beyond the Beat Generation, a 24 hour internet radio station broadcasting obscure music from the 60’s.
“BEYOND THE BEAT GENERATION archives and publishes the entire, long forgotten ‘wild’ musical gems out of the great years of the sixties (1965-1969) to a bright audience by using today’s technology as we call ‘Stream Radio’.
We broadcast 24 hours non-stop through the Internet the music formerly known as: Hippie music, Underground, 60’s punk, Flower Power, Mod, Free-Form-Freak-out, Garage music, Psychedelia or Teen Beat, the weirdest, the worst, the most powerful and nastiest ever recorded.
During the 60’s all teens were obsessed by music, but only a few touched surface, all groups wanted to be, sound like, or look like ‘The Beatles’, ‘The Rolling Stones’, ‘Pink Floyd’, ‘The Doors’, ‘Jefferson Airplane’ or ‘The Velvet Underground’.
Music was a movement. Music was the expression of a lifestyle. Music was politics, a protest against establishment, wars and society.”
