TOP 10 SIXTIES FLOOR-FILLERS
AS VOTED FOR BY PRO MOBILE READERS

If the Fifties was the decade that pop music as we know it was born, the Sixties was when it grew up and started thinking for itself. Revolution, experimentation and new ideas were the order of the day, and the rise of this counterculture, along with the civil rights movement, resulted in a music-buying public with more varied taste than ever before.

This variation was reflected in the results of our Pro Mobile Top Ten Sixties Floor-fillers vote! As we expected, you’ve chosen an eclectic mix of tracks drawn from a range of artists and genres. Read on to find out which tracks made the cut and discover the Top Ten Sixties Floor-fillers, as voted for by you, the readers of Pro Mobile...

Roy Orbison

Renowned for his distinctive voice, impressive vocal range and cinematic pop songs, Roy Orbison became one of the most-celebrated artists in music history.
