I can remember my mother in the summer of 67 at the kitchen counter with sun shining through the window on her bleach blonde hair and her transistor radio on the counter next to her playing the songs of 67 . The Association , the Turtles, The Beatles etc. She seemed so happy then.

I was 17 in 1967. Loved the music, lost older friends to the war. The Viet Nan War was heartbreaking. The body bags of our men on the news. Hated the War and respected our Vets. Many men who came home, turned to drugs to cope, some could not cope at all. The draft was feared. Our generation had a better way than the rigid establishment who reviled us. Love, communication, understanding.

While on a cruise I met a lovely lady and her husband - around their latte 70’s or early 80’s. We would often attend the same afternoon event and sit together. Once when her husband left for a few minutes, she shared that she would drive from Seattle to San Francisco every Friday after work and drive back on Sunday! She said it was the time of her life in the 1960’s! She never missed a weekend and sometimes would not get any sleep- she would arrive in Seattle and go straight to work on Monday! San Francisco was the place to be!!! The Vietnam Memorial in Washington is solemnly deeply moving. All Honor, Gratitude and Respect to all Veterans.

As a Canadian '67 was a defining moment for an 18 year old. The Nam war was a blessing. By 70 as as a would be 'hippie' inan age when feminis declared peace in the war between the sexes, bras were burned and birth control pills were everywhere, the CND was at par with the US $ and Europe not yet recovered from WWII was dirt cheap. I got to visit France, Spain twice, Morocco (extraordinary adventures everywhere in near pre-tourist Europe) and lasty old England. Cost $850 for 6 months of truly remarkable adventure (Can pay for a moron was $80 per week). Few Americans males - so no competition, but no shortage of Yankee Gal college grads, lots & lots of Aussis and many interesting Brits. In 75 years of life I can truly honestly say God was more than good to me for all of that time. It still makes me smile and the special loves experienced along the way leave me happily-sad for having lived it. Not afraid of dying any time. Fate allowed me the very best even if a poor man then and now.

I was just 10 years old in 1967. I was living for a year in Okinawa while my Dad was a Country Music musician and was on tour with his band playing for the troops in the Vietnam War. He was a veteran of WWII on the Beaches of Normandy. I, being an American, always believed the "summer of love" was 1969..Candlestick Park, Height Ashbury in San Fransisco, WOOD STOCK! It was a blast to grow up then. I remember these three years as constant TV of the war, and being spoiled rotten by the lonely American Soldiers who missed their family, especially their little sisters back home when they saw my sister and I. They saw a little girl with blond hair, and big blue eyes, who spoke English. The Hippy movement was earlier in London, then hit America in full color in 1969. I loved the music of the time, and my Dad and Mom didn't ...just like most parents of the time! This brings a lot of memories.

@lorigoshert6667 23 дня назад

Thanks for this. I've seen a lot of documentaries about this era, but none that have presented the British perspective (aside from a few band-specific docs). I'd never heard of Radio Caroline, for example, and it was interesting to hear the different ways the older generation responded to youth culture. The audio seems to be messed up around the time Janis Joplin is singing, though.

It was a great time to be a young person, all about the music, transistor radios, record players, going to the near by 5 & 10 to buy the latest 45. I was born 10/50 so I was 17 that summer. I didn’t pay that much attention to the Viet Nam war. My Dad died in ‘57 and I didn’t really watch the news. I was working nights and out with friends walking when not working. I did due to my neighbor who gave me the address of the of the paper that had Marine’s names and I did write to them about 60 letters and they wrote back.

I was only 12 in '67 and living in a small farm-based town got only a glimpse (aka what was allowed) of Hippies, the Counter Culture etc. By the time I was in high school all that had been commercialized and diluted, made "safe" but still with a whiff of forbidden fruit! The nearest mall (an hour's drive away) had The InStore where you could buy black light posters and all manners of Hippie stuff, all commercialized and heady stuff for a small town kid! I pretty much missed really experiencing the Summer of Love and all it represented by a good 5 years or so.... and it's just as well.. 🤣 And in the words of George Harrison, "All things must pass..." even the Summer of Love...

I'm the same age. At least I had a much older sister who brought home all the cool music for me to grow up to. Steppenwolf, Airplane, Hendrix, Cream, Love, Zappa, Traffic, Mayall, Blues Project...I was way into that stuff at age 7 so the late 60s has always felt like a familiar time to me.

@Farsider3955 Месяц назад

🤔….and the year after the “Summer of Love” Robert Kennedy and Martin Luther King Jr. were assassinated. Woodstock (‘69) brought some renewed hope for the Hippie generation, but the “free” concert at Altamont later that year ushered in the darkness that follows naivety. Then 1970, the U.S. Military shoots down students, killing 4 and injuring almost a dozen others at Kent State University. Back to this vid though….this “Free Documentary” was pretty good….not great, but not horrible either. Didn’t flow well….seemed unorganized. Interviews with the ‘flower children’ in S.F. mixed in would have added much needed richness - and a glimpse into the actual mindset of the youth of that era. Of lot of great music artists were mention, but for 1967 how could they have left out Procol Harum?

Bonnie in minute 34 of this 43-minute video you talk about the Ed Sullivan Show and the doors with pissed me off so bad about that Is Jim wasn't allowed to say the word higher and so he went and said it and Mr Sullivan said you'll never come back and of course Jim said that's okay we've already done it! And if I'm not mistaken by the following year Sly in the family stones came on singing the song WANNA TAKE YOU HIGHER and suddenly the word higher to Mr Sullivan was not a problem ... Ironic isn't it 🤔🥴😆

A time when America was America that cared for the citizens.When you can trust someone and you had a person as a friend not a cell phone or I-pad.

Its difficult to judge things from the outside and hard to see! When your in the middle,of change.Were all on the same planet taking our next breath,for a time.There are more similarities than differences by far! Surprised I be!
