it's people like this...hippies...that fucked up this country so bad. this generation was a bunch of lazy free riding potheads that claimed to be all about "peace and love" but really were disguising their racial bigotry beneath the mask of "free love." It's time all the people who worship hippies and the government-supported lifestyle wake up and smell my shit. The world doesn't live in a goddamned hippie compound and neither should you!
I've always loved your music Scott. You need to start eating only raw veggies and fruits for a few weeks to return your body to it's natural balance. Buy a good juicer and use organic produce to make your drinks. I don't need a doctor to tell me that you've got a lot of inflamation going on inside your body, so get cracking and turn things around. Love you brother!
Just remember Kawasaki's W1 released in 1967 with its 624cc air-cooled 360 degree crankshaft parallel twin. At the time, the W1 was the largest displacement motorcycle on the market. EPIC!
AS I pack up my things to depart for Ecuador, I remember these days in the City on the Bay. And, as I listen to this song I wonder, CW...Where are you now????
Sim, nós as pessoas a crescer na década de 60 tentou mudar as coisas como protesto à guerra do Vietnã e Segregação e de onde ele nos levar? Algumas das mesmas pessoas que protestaram contra a guerra estão agora em Washington que promovem a guerra em todo o mundo.Os EUA têm sido o agressor em todas as guerras desde a Guerra da Coréia em 1952 e se você não sabe ainda tem milhares de tropas na Fronteira Norte da coreia

@gotch09 Nah, man. Getting old is a trip, man! I still play guitar and sing and I'm 61. I can still pick some good notes and carry a tune. I dig getting older! You will, too, man. Don't worry.....it's cool! I learned it all in the 60s. Teach your children well!
The San Francisco of the 60s and 70s no longer exists. The know- it- all Baby Boomers have really screwed up this country. Now we are reaping what they sowed!
The record came to be emblematic of a time and place. Scott was and is a wonderful singer and we can hear here the voice is strong and powerful, the impression at the time of the original release being her had a slight and delicate voice.
Still a very powerfull song! Very applicable too to the current times ("Occupy Wall Street"), worldwide. When I was in San Francisco 2 years ago, I couln't find a juke box with this song anywhere. So I asked a street saxophone player. He didn't know the song, but as I started to sing it for him, he quickly picked up the tune and played this wonderfull song for us, right there, on the streets of San Francisco! Greet from the Netherlands!
A love song that pretty much summed up what the 60s was all about...dreamy and beautiful, his vocals are still excellent, thanks for posting...a real treat.
don't over romantize smelly bodies, bad hygine and great music, there was a lot more hate than love going on
