18) Jorge Ben-

This video is shit (slideshow), but the song is good.



19) The Sonics-
Here Are The Sonics!!! (1965)












I don't know if I think go-go is very sexy? I think this video kind of weirds me out, I'm not sure if there's any circumstance where it's okay to put a woman in a cage, after you've given her an intravenous drug, and insist upon delusional flailing. It sounds less like dancing, and more like the premise to an episode of Law & Order.




20) Ravi Shankar-
Portrait of a Genius (1968)












21) Led Zeppelin-
Led Zeppelin II (1969)












22) Leonard Cohen-
Songs of Leonard Cohen (1967)












I really want to date a girl named Marianne, so I can play this While she's gathering up her things to leave me. Ideally, it's a cassette so I can stop it every time she turns to give me that fuck-off-look, then rewind and hit play after she turns back around.

23) Francoise Hardy-
Tous les Garçons et les Filles (1962)











You're probably thinking: like, isn't this not the most critically acclaimed Hardy album from the sixties? What about the Gainsbourg albums? What about Anna?

I'm just a sucker for the yeh-yeh sound, I guess.




24) Silver Apples-
Silver Apples (1968)












This song is actually from their second album: Contact, which isn't as good, but you know, I really like this song...




25) Merle Haggard-
Mama Tried (1968)












No matter how many times you watch this video, I promise, I've watched it more than you. He has one of those faces, you know, that you stare at, and kind of grit your teeth, and sort of fake gag, or you just find yourself touching your own face, but either way you keep on staring. I'm going through withdrawals as I type this.
