A Trip Back to Our Past

This past Saturday, we caught two of the three sets played by a Chicago area band called "1969" at Captain's Quarters on Fox Lake. As you can guess, they played music mostly from 1967 to 1970. They have seven members, one being a female singer, so they can cover it all. They even dress for the occasion. And, there were lots of peace signs and tie dies.

The show starts out with a radio broadcast. One guy plays a horn and another the mandolin in addition to the usual instruments.

I'll write down the names of the songs. You guess who sand them (answers at the bottom).

FIRST SET

FOOTSTOMPIN' MUSIC

RAMBLIN' GAMBLIN' MAN
