By 1968, it seemed the whole of America - not just its youth - felt something was going badly wrong; wih Vietmam assassinations, race riots,and ever-climbing divorce rtes, the American way of life was under scrutiny from all sides. these songs display a vulnerability that the Greatest Generation (Frank Sinatra, Bing Crosby, Dean Martin) and the the pre-Beatles generation (Dion, Bobby Darin, The Beach Boys, the 4 seasons) had never experienced before. It's the sound of a country trying to work its way out of a crisis.
