Rock Out in Your Vintage Convertible
In 1964, the top of the line Chevy Chevelle debuted its high-end nameplate, the Chevy Malibu. This hot car was available in a two-door convertible with all the bells and whistles that a 1960’s convertible could hold. In the 1960s, this was one hot car to cruise down the streets. If you were cruising in a convertible, you had to listen to music on your favorite AM radio station. If you drove a 1967 convertible, you could choose an 8-track tape option. Now, if you get to drive one of these beauties, you have more music options, so when you are cruising down the street in your restored Malibu, you can listen to this ultimate 1960s playlist:
From 1964, these classic tunes will get heads turning and toes tapping. Your playlist should include these classics that define the beachside lifestyle that the Malibu defined:
“Dancing in the Streets” from Martha and the Vandellas
“Louie Louie” from The Kingsmen
“Walk, Don’t Run ‘64” by The Ventures
“The Little Old Lady from Pasadena” by Jan and Dean
“Oh Pretty Woman” by Roy Orbison
In 1965, there were even more beach tunes that would sound great coming from the speakers on your convertible Malibu. Add these to your playlist to keep the era going strong:
“California Girls” by the Beach Boys
