The sixties were a defining era for the world with Glasgow having a vibrant music scene with some huge names emerging from the city during that time. A 15-year-old Marie Lawrie from Dennistoun had chart success for the first time as the times were a changin' as the revival of British folk music got underway and Glasgow artists became inspired.
Jimi Hendrix arrived in Glasgow in 1967 to play Green's Playhouse with him also checking in at Glasgow's More's Hotel, The Rolling Stones cut the ribbon at McCormack's new shop on Bath Street, The Beatles rocked the Odeon on Renfield Street and Bob Dylan arrived in Glasgow for the first time in 1966.

4. The Beatstalkers
The Beatstalkers were formed in Glasgow in the early 1960s and were sometimes billed as 'the Scottish Beatles' because of the hoards of screaming girls that would attend their concerts. The band even had a huge concert in George Square in the summer of 1965 which became known as the nation's first-ever 'beat riot' as thousands of teenagers turned up for the gig. | Contriuted
