At Around and Around: SEE CBS 1966 to 1973
This is the period where under Clive Davis CBS established itself as one of the main players in rock music. It’s probably the longest article on the site because it has so much to cover: Dylan, Simon & Garfunkel, Leonard Cohen, The Byrds, establishing a UK label, then the ‘underground’ era and the Rock Machine samplers. Johnny Cash and C&W. Miles Davis, Weather Report and jazz. Barbra Streisand and Andy Williams were still mega sellers. Classical moved its Eugene Ormamdy and Leonard Bernstein roots to Terry Riley and Switched on Bach.
