From what I’ve seen, once you get to the late 70’s and early 80’s, the fashion got a bit more wild with rock specifically. There was also a lot of color, there always has been. Color is one of the things that have really emphasize music for me. I like to focus on more than the music perspective, I also like to learn about their life, how they got famous, the style they go by, maybe even how they died. One of the people I think about most is Keith Richards (The Rolling Stones) during this time period. His style is pretty laid back, but he is really talented on guitar.

Here’s some other bands I like from this time who are alike:

• Led Zeppelin
• The Beatles
• The Rolling Stones
• The Who

In the late 60’s and into the 70’s is what I normally refer to when “hippie” comes up. Not the literal definition of hippie, but the fashion side of it. Almost a psychedelic look to me.

Even though it’s in black and white, they are both wearing colorful shirts with lots of jewelry and scarfs. Men typically had longish hair during that time.

Bands like The Sylvers would usually go for a more color-coded theme type of thing. The ladies would typically wear dresses with belts and maybe hats. Men would wear “blouses” with huge collars, bell-bottom pants and visible belts. These bands and/or groups would be more coordinated.

I’m just going to jump right into it, we’re going back to the 60’s. Not too far, but far enough to a great time period for music itself.

In the early 1960’s it was normal to see musicians or bands wearing very nice and formal clothing during performances. Ladies would wear nice dresses, beautiful jewelry, and nice hair styles. The guys would typically wear suits with nice shoes and their hair was presentable. For awhile, The Beatles would go with a “mop-top”, a longish type of hair style for men specifically.
