Liberty prospered in TheSixties, with acts such as TeenIdol Bobby Vee, {{Surf Rock}}ers Music/JanAndDean, {{Soul}} singer Gene [=McDaniels=], {{Pop}} band Gary Lewis and the Playboys, and [[UsefulNotes/TheBritishInvasion British Invasion]] group Billy J. Kramer and the Dakotas keeping it on the charts. The company also bought several smaller labels, including Blue Note, Imperial, Minit and World Pacific, among others. However, Liberty largely fell behind during the hippie era, despite popular "underground" signings such as proto-Americana group the Nitty Gritty Dirt Band and {{Blues Rock}}ers Canned Heat, whose releases included collaborations with both Music/JohnLeeHooker and The Chipmunks ([[NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer yes, really]]). Liberty's British and German subsidiaries were more closely attuned with the counterculture; they signed groups such as Music/TheBonzoDogBand, Brinsley Schwarz (featuring a young Music/NickLowe), The Groundhogs, Music/{{Hawkwind}}, The Idle Race (featuring a young [[Music/TheMove Jeff]] [[Music/ElectricLightOrchestra Lynne]]), Music/AmonDuulII and Music/{{Can}}, while licensing Music/CreedenceClearwaterRevival[[note]]as part of a deal with their US label, Fantasy Records[[/note]] and Music/CaptainBeefheart for European releases.

One of Liberty's earliest signings, chanteuse Julie London, had a Top 10 hit with "Cry Me A River". The label also got into the new RockAndRoll scene with performers such as hitmaker Music/EddieCochran. Despite these successes, the fledgling company was on the verge of bankruptcy by 1958. However, it came back from the brink thanks to songwriter Ross Bagdasarian, aka David Seville, whose smash novelty hit "Witch Doctor" used sped-up vocals. Bagdasarian soon spun off this gimmick into Franchise/AlvinAndTheChipmunks, a trio of singing cartoon rodents named after Liberty's top executives: Alvin (after label president Al Bennett), Simon (vice president Si Waronker), and Theodore (chief engineer Ted Keep). The Chipmunks became the stars of a multimedia franchise that still continues today.
