Every Sunday from 6 to 8 p.m., Dick Nixon’s Tip Top Record Shop provides Columbia with two hours of music that Dick Nixon probably condemned. We regularly feature different genres that had followings in the 1960s and 70s: pop, psych, soul, funk, folk, country and trusty rock n’ roll. Sometimes our show will concentrate on a particular movement in music, like krautrock, Girl Group fever or “Every Band Gram Parsons Was Part Of.” Other times we just play the hits as we know them. This playlist features a diverse handful of my favorite artists and recordings from about 1966-1975.
