Magic Bus London Carnaby St 1975

In the 1960s, Carnaby Street was made popular by followers of the Mod style. Many independent fashion boutiques, and designers such as Mary Quant and 'Lord John' were located in and around Carnaby Street as well as various underground music bars such as the 'Roaring Twenties'. With bands such as The Beatles, Small Faces, and Rolling Stones appearing in the area to work, shop, and socialize, it became one of London's coolest destination associated with the Swinging Sixties.
The Asia Overland 'hippie' trail was the great journey for young, independent travellers during the 1960s and 1970s. This is The Magic Bus

It's not Carnaby Street, it's Portobello Road. Also, I think the garden is Derry & Tom's not Harrods.

Great footage anyway.
