Il 1968 e i suoi primi cinquant’anni: una selezione non-ideologica per le nozze d’oro dell’anno più ideologico della storia, celebrate per mezzo dei suoi album (e singoli) più significativi. I Sixties sono anni d’oro per la musica, gli anni di Bob Dylan e i The Velvet Underground, di Nina Simone e Jimi Hendrix. Abbiamo scelto solo canzoni estratte da album usciti nel 1968, ed è venuta fuori una colonna sonora per l’anno della rivoluzione possibile.
Accompagnate il ritmo del mixtape alla lettura della nostra Cover Story sul 1968.
Il mixtape è realizzato da Simone Fiorucci (AKA Spineless Laugh)
Selezione a cura di: Simone Fiorucci, Veronica Ganassi, Fabio Mastroserio, Alessia Melchiorre, Giovanna Taverni
