Great book about the spirit of 1967.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
Very interesting reading. It encapsulates the hopes, fears and most of all the music scene on both sides of Atlantic, a fascinating journey back to 1967. Plus an interesting list of albums and singles of that period. Recommended reading not only for Beatles fans but also for those interested in the so-called Summer of Love.
Baby Boomer's Review
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
If you grew up in the 50's, 60's, or 70's and rock music was a part of your life, this book is required reading. I thought I knew a lot about the early rock bands, but I was enlightened on how much I really didn't know. The pictures bring back wonderful memories of a great time.
