Best Musical act of the '60's

For me it is a tie between The Beatles and Jimi Hendrix.

9. Hendrix & Led Zep

One of my great regrets in life is passing up the chance to see Hendrix live. I've been spending the last 33 years collecting all possible video & audio records of him. Most guitarists agree that he was in a class by himself, never will be another. Saw pretty much all the others, including Led Zep at the Fillmore - best show ever, acid bluesy stuff from Led Zep 1.

10. what about The Velvet Underground?

or Peter, Paul and Mary?

I am very fond of the Byrds.

You also forget to mention Dylan, who is as overrated as he is a profound influence on modern western music.
