Rock n Roll was at its best during these times ie: songwriting was a serious art, drugs, sex and rocknroll was part of our culture. They were truly carefree times. You could hitch hike to a concert, get high, get laid and have a ride home. no charge, no strings... Memories..LOL

Just think about the bands that were around then, the level of "artist" and songwriting was on a scale not approached these days..

Choosing a "Best" would be real tough.. the songwriting was so diverse.
