1. GOD, I miss those days!!

The music, the vibes, the people....

The philosophy......

[orangecrush]

3. I caught the last wave

1973 - 1975.

Turned 18 in '75.

Did all of it.

7. I'm the same age as you.

I think Kent State woke me up. I was already headed that way after RFK was killed (that crushed me), and Watergate was the last straw. I had hope then that the nation could be saved if we worked on it, but that hope has been badly dashed in the past 40 years. I don't know if it can be resurrected or not--it's not looking so great.

10. Started with Reagan

Along with everything else, there was a concerted effort to crush the "counter culture". (Which Meese had already been doing for Reagan in California.)

They succeeded by having two corporations buy every independent radio station in America, thus gaining total control of airplay, and creating the right wing a.m. hate jocks.

2. "we are but a moment's sunlight fading on the grass..."

4. I believe

That was from a Bible verse.


Beautiful song from the Youngbloods.

[bahboo]

5. good times...we were all young once....

and was that John Sebastian on stage as well?

6. Looks like it

This was at Big Sur.

The harmony made the hair on my arms stand up.

8. I guess Neil Young missed this gig.

Still, it's a hell of a band.

9. Neil was there

Just not on this tune, I think?
