Sunny Goodge Street - Tom Northcott Vancouver 1967

Anyone who grew up on Canada's west coast in the mid-sixties will remember this pop-psych nugget from Vancouver boy Tom Northcott . . . it topped the charts during the summer of '67.

My favourite song.... just love it, and will never tire of hearing it. Thanks for the post. I am so happy I was around and listening to this music when it came out. This one, for me, captures the summer of '67 more than any other.

Thanks for the memories. I remember 1967 very well, especially North of 4th Kits where I grew up and remember the "aromas" well. A few pictures are not accurate; some of the buildings downtown weren't built yet. But that's OK. This video does an excellent job of resurrecting the FEELING of 1967 and that's all the counts.

Brings back memories, 4th. Avenue, Be-ins Stanley Park, Vancouver became Bay Area North. I had long hair then, now have grandchildren and collect my pensions. We were young once in the summer of 67.

Thanks for the song,excellent audio.

Thanks for the great song and pictures of beautiful grand old Vancouver. Not that it matters but the picture at 2:14 is from the late 80s or later by the way. I know someone that lives in one of the buildings shown and it wasn't built until 1986. This same area was shown earlier in the video with many less buildings; that picture is definitely from the 60s. By the way, does anyone know why the people at the PNE were protesting something in the one picture?
