1967 Music Memories
“In a soldier’s stance, I aimed my hand at the mongrel dogs who teach. Fearing not that I’d become my enemy, in the instant that I preach. Sisters fled by confusion boats, mutiny from stern to bow. Ah, but I was so much older then, I’m younger than that now.”
~Bob Dylan
1967 was a coast-to-coast (and worldwide) amalgam of cultural change, political questioning, personal liberation and psychedelic exploration. From Haight-Ashbury to New York and beyond, the year’s touchstones included the Monterey Pop Festival and the Summer of Love (which explains the last song in the medley).
This one could have gone on a lot longer (and I mean a lot longer) but I never want to overdo it. Sadly that means the Bee Gees, Jefferson Airplane, Tommy James, and so many more favorites from that year didn’t make the cut.
