BoomerByte - The Soundtrack of A Generation - The Ads They Are 'A Changin'

By the late 1960s it was more than clear that boomers were not going to repeat the sheltered, conservative lifestyles of their parents. Elvis, Rock&Roll and The Beatles saw to that!
Madison Avenue adeptly picked up on notions and nuances of change in their young customers. Advertisements adroitly packaged our needs to be young, fresh and alive all into highly marketable products that appealed to our libidos. This mash-up of tv ads takes us from the 50s through the 60s and reflects the changes in our maturing boomer society. Do you know what's going on, Mr. Jones?
