The Sixties Beat!: Omar Sharif
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2015/07/blog-post.html
Sunday, July 12, 2015. In my humble opinion, the epitome of the dashing leading man in the movies has to be Omar Sharif who died of a heart attack recently. Mr. Sharif was born in Egypt in 1932 and left us in 2015. You may remember him in many movies including Funny Girl and Lawrence of Arabia, but he was lead actor in one of my all time favorite movies ever.Dr. Zhivago. Only married briefly once, Mr Sharif became a life long bachelor having had a brief affair with Barbra Streisand. Posted by Kelly Gannon.

The Sixties Beat!: Paul Revere and the Raiders
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2010/12/paul-revere-and-raiders.html
Wednesday, December 1, 2010. Paul Revere and the Raiders. Paul Revere and the Raiders.ahhh, still one of the best bands around, and they're still performing! I remember seeing them in the sixties with lead singer Mark Lindsay. Above I met Paul Revere and have to say.the guy looks great for 73 years old, and this picture was taken just a week ago. Oh ya.just in case you're wondering, I'm the guy in the black coat, Paul is the other., lol. Posted by Kelly Gannon. June 26, 2013 at 10:49 PM. The Beat Goes On!

The Sixties Beat!: Englebert Humperdink
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2010/09/englebert-humperdink.html
Tuesday, September 14, 2010. I remember I had this record in the sixties.great record! The thing about Englebert Humperdink that some bands today don't realize is that he's sold more records than any of your five most popular bands of today. He's sold over 150 million records, 64 gold albums (and back then to receive a gold album you had to sell MANY more than you do now), and 24 platinum records.not many other groups can rival those numbers.

The Sixties Beat!: Doctor Zhivago
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2010/09/doctor-zhivago.html
Wednesday, September 1, 2010. One of my all time favorite 60's movies.better yet, one of my favorite movies period. Taken from the book written by Boris Pasterak, and directed by David Lean (he also directed Bridge over the River Kwai, and Lawrence of Arabia). A love triangle, but with some history included, the main cast members were Omar Sharif and Julie Christie. I had heard that some of the scenes were shot in Saskatchewan, Canada and Spain as well as Finland. Posted by Kelly Gannon. The Beat Goes On!

The Sixties Beat!: The Twist!
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2010/09/twist.html
Wednesday, September 15, 2010. A world wide dance craze that started in the early 60's. Most of us associate Chubby Checker with the version we all know, but it was first on the B-side of a Hank Ballard tune. Hank Ballard was to appear on American Bandstand, but his version was to gritty, so Dick Clark had Chubby Checker smooth it out a bit.thus became the hit we all recognize.But an early version of the dance goes as far back to Africa. It would be a "fun" way though to get rid of that "spare tire".

The Sixties Beat!: Villains of Batman and Robin
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2012/03/villains-of-batman-and-robin.html
Sunday, March 18, 2012. Villains of Batman and Robin. I'll start with one of Batman's least known villains.False Face. Though in the comic books, he was featured only one, but appeared in the 1966 Batman series. False Face was a master of disguise, voice and mannerisms. The character was played by Malachi Throne (now THAT'S a cool name! But he never got credit.I viewed a show the other day with him in it and in the credits, instead of his name a question mark?

The Sixties Beat!: Paul Lynde
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2010/08/paul-lynde.html
Thursday, August 26, 2010. Popular 60's character actor and comedian Paul Lynde was as colorful in his private life as he was on TV. Heavy drinking and his lifestyle in the "swinging sixies" helped cause a heart attack at an early age.never the less.he always brightened up the TV screen on any show he appeared on in the sixties.

The Sixties Beat!: Raiders Coach
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2012/03/raiders-coach.html
Thursday, March 8, 2012. It was so cool back in the sixties when different bands had their own "theme car".such as The Monkee Mobile. I bought this model car online of The Raiders Coach.of Paul Revere and the Raiders. I don't think gas milage was too much of an issue back then! Posted by Kelly Gannon.

The Sixties Beat!: Edward C. Platt
http://thesixtiesbeat.blogspot.com/2010/10/edward-c-platt.html
Thursday, October 7, 2010. Edward C. Platt. What would the sixties sitcom "Get Smart" be without "The Chief? Edward C. Platt played The Chief, but before this role, he was on broadway, and was a bass-baritone singer, at a professional level, thus his great low voice, even studying music at Julliard.
