Going through a huge mid 60's Folk Rock Phase after seeing "echo in the canyon" doc

Great songs, break out your capo and busk away!

Byrds (Bells of rhymney, Eight miles, It won't be wrong)
Mamas/Papas (Monday, California Dreamin, Straight shooter)
Beau Brummels (Laugh Laugh GREAT CHORDS)
Hollies (Bus stop, Yes I will, Sorry Suzanne)
Turtles ( happy together, Eleanor)
Buffalo Springfield (Out of my Mind, Clancy, anyhting)

Just saw Echoes of the Canyon a week or so ago--great memories!  I've lately been going back to some of my favorite 60's songs-- "Tired of Waiting" by the Kinks, "Don't Let Me Be Misunderstood" by the Animals, "Never My Love" by the Association, etc.   Laugh Laugh is a great idea, and yes great chords indeed.  "Light My Fire', Byrds' version of "My Back Pages" and Donovan's "Catch The Wind" are my favorite go-to warm-up songs.
