This is a volunteer, non-profit group dedicated to researching and archiving North Texas music history, especially the Dallas / Fort Worth area during the 60's - the bands, clubs, concerts, and the cultural experience of that era. Share your memories, photos and memorabilia with old and new friends, and help us chronicle those unique, exciting times!
This is an open, unmoderated community. New members, however, remain on moderated status until it's clear that your membership isn't linked to spam.

Please:
* Keep to relevant music-related topics.
* No political, racial, sexual or religious postings.
* Delete the former postings before replying.
* Update the Subject line if the topic changes.

Our photo collection - as represented in the Photos section of the group - is extensive, thanks to our members. However, this represents only a small fraction of the collection:
Our MASTER PHOTO GALLERY, which houses the entire archives, can be accessed through the "Related Link" at the bottom of this page.
We also have a linked site of 60's recordings in MP3 format: http://www.trinityrivermusic.net./

This photo collection, as well as all the archival & research activities, represents a joint collaboration with our Fort Worth friends at musicandartsagogo.
Please respect the fact that the majority of these photos are from private collections, and contact us if you wish to use them in any way. By submitting material to BigD60s you agree that all items submitted to it thereafter become publicly available to anyone on the internet. Consequently, you also agree that we cannot be held liable for any copying or re-usage of materials by others, including source credits. If you are concerned about re-use and do not want your items reproduced, please do not submit them to this site.

Thanks for joining, and welcome to Big D 60's!
