Overview
Step back into the most transformative decade of music with "Our Generation," a comprehensive 4-LP box set released in 1989 by Tellydisc. This collection serves as a definitive sonic time capsule of the late 1960s, featuring 52 iconic tracks that defined a global movement. From the "Summer of Love" anthems of San Francisco to the sophisticated "Beat" sounds of London, this set brings together the heavyweights of the era, including The Beach Boys, Cream, The Kinks, Jefferson Airplane, Joe Cocker, and Dusty Springfield. The box art pays homage to the legendary Woodstock Festival with the iconic "Dove and Guitar" motif, alongside vintage Rolling Stone magazines and 60s memorabilia. Whether you are a "flower child" looking to relive the magic or a new collector seeking a masterclass in 60s rock and pop history, this box set offers an unparalleled listening experience with chart-topping hits and cult classics.
Interesting Facts
- Chart Information Included: A unique feature of this release is the "Chart Information" printed on the back of the box. Every track is listed with its highest UK or USA chart position, the number of weeks it stayed in the Top 50, and the year it peaked.
- Masterful Licensing: In an era before streaming, bringing together tracks from competing labels like EMI, BMG, and Polygram for a single 4-LP set was a significant logistical achievement.
- Phil Smee Design: The artwork was handled by Phil Smee, a legendary figure in music packaging known for his expertise in 60s psychedelic design and his "Strange Things" archive.
- Diverse Tracklist: The set bridges the gap between different subcultures—featuring the heavy blues of Canned Heat, the avant-garde pop of Serge Gainsbourg, and the soul-stirring vocals of The Righteous Brothers.
