Interesting article. My boomer dad told me that the big divide in his neighborhood was between those who listened to the Four Seasons (who hailed from my dad's nabe) and those who listened to the Beatles. According to my dad, the Beatles were considered a "girls group" and any guy caught listening to the Beatles was considered a "fag."

The golden age of soft music that the authour speaks ofwas in the early 60s and only last from about the time Elvis got out of the army (1960) and the assasination of JFK in late 1963. It was brief breathing period between the early Rock N Roll of 1956-1960 and the British Invasion of 1964.

But, the best dirty, garage, punk and surf music was made in this 'plaid era' pre fab four. Link Wray, The Sonics, The Trashmen ... and so on.
