Compiling a list. It's pretty tough for 1969.

Year might've been stronger for Germany if Can were allowed to release Delay in '68 like they wanted Thief was a top 20 song of last year could've made an impact

first electronic hit single surreal to watch people from 1969 dancing like its a rave in 1989

Catfish Collins shredding on this didnt realize James ever let a guitarist steal the show like this. Definitely didnt when i saw him.

him keeping a poker face while James plays yet another unremarkable organ solo

insane music

great year for james

never heard this really good

wya @suzuki

you asked why the punks were so into reggae a while ago @twinkletoez

great psych double sider i forgot about

"Through the early sixties, r&b in america had evolved into the slower, bluesier soul. As what was going down stateside began to filter into Kingstons sound systems, many of its key musicians took note and began to put ska through a similar evolution.

In truth, people were beginning to flag at ska's relentless pace, which was particularly hard for dancers to keep up with during the abnormally hot summer of 1966. Also, the joyous sound of Independence was no longer appropriate since "free Jamaica" was sliding towards political and economic chaos. For all these reasons, a new hybrid of ska and solely emerged - Rock steady. The focus shifted away from ska's horn players, towards a smaller - and less costly - rhythm section, with the kick drum hammering the third beat in the bar (aka the one drop), the newly arrived electric base lumbering out to the foreground, and the electric guitar in Oregon played as a part of the rhythmic brew"

Kind of reminds me of the cultural effect of a few really good summers which grew enough grass for the Mongolians to breed enough horses to take over a continent

This rules

Should have mentioned this for 1968. Whole albums incredible.
