Digitally remastered by Bob Fisher (Digital Domain). The double-disc anthology Positively '60s collects 30 of the decade's definitive tunes. The set ranges from psychedelic pop like the Byrds' "Eight Miles High," Jefferson Airplane's "White Rabbit," and Donovan's "Hurdy Gurdy Man" to socially conscious songs like Dion's "Abraham, Martin & John," Barry McGuire's "Eve of Destruction," and the Impressions' "People Get Ready." The Yardbirds' "For Your Love," the Zombies' "Time of the Season," and the Hollies' "Bus Stop" capture the mid-'60s British Invasion sounds; Creedence Clearwater Revival's "Lodi" and the Band's "The Weight" exemplify the rootsy sounds of late-'60s American rock; and Harry Nilsson's "Everybody's Talkin'," Leon Russell's "A Song for You," and the Guess Who's "These Eyes" reflect the singer/songwriter trend that emerged at the end of the decade. Positively '60s' other highlights include Canned Heat's "Going Up the Country," Traffic's "Feelin' Alright," John Lennon & the Plastic Ono Band's "Give Peace a Chance," and Mountain's "Mississippi Queen." Even with the 5th Dimension's "Age of Aquarius," this collection's representation of '60s soul is fairly weak, but otherwise the set delivers a decent selection of the decade's pop and rock sounds. ~ Heather Phares
