Description

This week, the Vinyl Tap time machine lands in another important year in the growth of rock and roll.  It’s 1968. There was lots happening in the world… not quite a time machine but Boeing did launch the first 747 jumbo jet. TV history was made when Star Trek’s James Kirk shared an on-screen kiss with Lieutenant Uhura. The winter Olympics were held in France and broadcast for first time on colour TV and the Beatles released the White Album.
Other musical artists of note that year included Cream, The Zombies, Traffic, The Kinks, Bob Seger, Steppenwolf and the Rolling Stones. 
We’ll here them plus many others this week so jump on your magic carpet for a ride back to 1968 and be sure to tune in to The Tap!
