CultureClint describes his website as "the home of the music, memories and magic of the most fun and exciting decade in history - The Swingin' Sixties." A gigantic and lovingly compiled source of memories. A huge source described as "your one stop reference guide through three decades of music, movies, television, pop culture and social history. Whether you are looking for reference material or simply entertainment, if it's from the 60s, 70s or 80s you will find it here." David Turner's vast compilation of everything to do with the popular culture of the period with a strong bias towards the UK. Marmalade
Skies Claims to be the mega-site on the 1960's - all the people, places, events, music, news, politics, fashions that make the '60s so unique, plus mailing list, boomer classifieds, '60s poll, boomer chat and more 60s and 70s. But bear in mind that it has got an American audience. This is more than an oldies music resource, as Pieter calls it. His loving compilation of music, images and culture of the 50s, 60s and 70s is a real treasure trove. Get your ticket back to a yesteryear of neon bubbler juke boxes, old time radios and turntables, with music that will "knock your socks off!" The Super Seventies ArchivesThis is an American site that covers music, lifestyles, culture, films, TV and politics. It is slick and professional with lots of good links. Totally 70's If you want a view of the 1970s from an American perspective, then try Totally 70's. However, this website has a slow entry point so be prepared for delays. Worth holding on, though. Baby
Boomer HeadQuarters This American site is a place to relive and revive memories of the Innocent Fifties and Turbulent Sixties. An era that belonged to the post war baby boom of 1946 through 1964. i used to believe is a collection of ideas that adults thought were true when they were children; some of them are funny, some of them are bizarre, but they're all true. there are currently around 8000 beliefs on the site. Oh, and I'm still convinced the thumb I sucked is smaller than the other one. American
Cultural History, 1960 - 1969 More from this excellent Kingwood College Library website. This time covering the 1970s. If only there were a British equivalent.

Visitors are asked to "join the Hippie Museum Yahoo group campfire. We're looking forward to chillin' with you. Peace out ya'll, Love." Museum of
Fads TV Cream's readership has been polled to find, as they tell it, the best remembered toys that turned up in the stockings of yesteryear, from the tiniest fifty pee rubber novelty to the many bulky Bakelite candidates for that hallowed "main present" status. Mainly the 70s and 80s. This site has information on fads from the 1920s to the 1990s. Click on any decade and you get a paragraph or two on the main fads, along with links to more extensive information about each item. Just to prove that nothing escapes the nostalgia brigade, The Pocket Calculator Show is here to collect and celebrate personal memories of all integrated circuit-based consumer products from the electronics revolution of the 1970s and 1980s. The time they call "the golden age of consumer electronics". This site is an online shop that specialises in watches from the 1970's, give or take a few years. Pete Roberts' Old & Vintage Radios Get your old Sixties and Seventies radios repaired by Pete who, as a teenager throughout the 1960s, grew up with both valve and transistor technology - and obviously loves it. As he says: "our older 60s and 70s equipment was made better, and works better than contemporary gear."
