All of this amazing stuff going down, and Elvis was doing his classic hymns album...I guess one could say he was ahead of the curve and already going back to his "roots music", or maybe anticipating "Jesus Music"...but, no, I don't think so...
Anyway, Satch, your list of LP releases is truly eye-opening, and thanks for posting it!

Well, for me it would be ideal with my 19 77 body (that would have been when I was 20)...but yeah, a 2007 summer of love would be positively groovy...

What's happening, brother

In a local paper, a few months back, there was an interview with Bob Weir, where he talked about how the fun in games of the Summer of Love lasted about five minutes on Haight before the crime rate spiked, and then the police, and how everything sort of burned out there much faster than a lot of people realize. Interesting interview.
Anyway, I think some pictures are in order.

I'm still amazed at how so many people of my generation had all these wonderful times and travels while Vietnam saturated society at all levels. In 1967 I was cracking the books to stay in school in order to delay my inevitable military duty until the worst of Nam was past  . (I am proud to have served and think the draft should be brought back, in some form, today)
The tension between a nasty war and conscience expanding ideas made for a time ripe with frission (life and death, baby!). I love the music and ideas that came out of the summer of love era - they shape me today. I just wish I was more involved then instead of working construction, sweating exams and doing my duty.
Like Satchmo, If the summer of love had happened a few years later I would have been more tuned in. Actually, a 2007 summer of love with my current brain and my 1967 body would be a blast. |
1. 1967 was all about Clambake, BABY!
2. I have to apologize, for some reason I always thought you were in your 20's....and here I find out that you are THE ANCIENT ONE. 
P.S. Just to clarify....in 1967 I would have been 4.

You want amazing/surreal....Satchmo will give you amazing/surreal. Guess which record was up against Sgt. Peppers for Best Engineered Album of 1967 at the Grammys?
He was nominated 14 times for a Grammy, but he didn't win his very first Grammy for Best Sacred Performance until 1968 for that record. He would win two (the third would be for a live version of the song How Great Thou Art) more while above ground....not counting the Lifetime Achievement Award aka let's try to get all this egg off our faces award in 1971.
Anyhoo, Elvis' year in the 60's was 1968, BABY!
I said this before and I will continue to say this....the worst thing that happened to Elvis was Andreas Cornelius van Kuijk aka Tom Parker.

OK, I know one of the classics you speak of must be "A Day In The Life". What is the other? As for your general opinion of the album, I simply don't agree. I would go as far as to say it isn't their very best, and I actually agree with you that Magical Mystery Tour constitutes a stronger collection of songs (in spite of the fact that it isn't really an album, but an EP padded with hit singles).
Excellent point.
I actually own the mono version, and I very much prefer it. But it doesn't help that the mono version was my "imprint" (in other words, the one I listened to originally) back in '67. The differences in the two mixes are significant enough that the two are pretty much entirely different listening experiences. There are many who consider the mono mix to be the "definitive Pepper", based on the fact that it's the mix the Beatles themselves were most involved in.

1. I am not going to bring down your thread with Vietnam.....and I have already posted about it on here.
2. Lucy in the Sky of Diamonds. Now if you included Strawberry Fields Forever and Penny Lane, which were recorded during the Pepper's sessions....it would have been 4 Classics/ Masterpieces from that Session.
I would love to be able to one day hear Carnival of Light, which along with the above two and Only a Northern Song were recorded during those sessions but not included. It's the only one of the four that hasn't been released, not even in bootleg form. It's basically a crazier pre-Revolution #9 which was about 10 to 15 minutes long.
3. I prefer the mono version by a great deal. They really are different recordings. One of these days, each of their recordings will get a proper reissue as the band wanted them to sound. If I listen to The Beatles, I pull out the British lps. I can't tolerate the CDs. Who knows, maybe with EMI going belly up that might happen.

in the spirit of 1967, can I sleep on your couch?
I'll chant and play my finger cymbals if you'll let me.

If you had left out the chanting and whatnots, I might have considered it.
