Hippies springing up in most american cities. It is all related. The psychedelics, the war, the protesting. Im planning on having a good time as long as i can. Smoke pot with your kids and you will understand why your kids are happy. People should be uninhibited in their sexual expression. You cannot ignore the change in morality. They are fascists, they dont like hippies, and they dont like the things you do. We do have to maintain law, order, and decency on the streets. What we are thinking about is a peaceful planet, we are not thinking about anything else. They are trying to do what no one else has ever done before, find a new way for humanity. America in the early 60s was a good time in prosperity but it was also a stagnant time in terms of spiritual growth. Things were at a standstill. America in the early 60s, it was a really good time of prosperity, but it was always kind of a stagnant time, in terms of spiritual growth. Things were kind of at a standstill. The Baseline Culture was materialism, and also the feeling that the culture, itself, didnt honor the human spirit and didnt honor creativity. The early 1950s, the nation recognized in its midst, a social movement, called degeneration. A novel, titled on the road, became a bestseller. When carol walkeds book came around, it was a revolution, defining a new generation of what being beat means. And defined it as a spiritual revolution. If we are living in an age of conformity, and everybody is trying to work with the corporation, you are losing a sense of self. I was traveling west one time, at the junction of the state line of colorado, and saw in the clouds, huge, and above the theory of golden desert and even fall, the image of god, with four fingers pointed straight at me. Come on, boy, go down across the ground. Go mone for man, go mone, go ground. Go alone, go roll your bones, alone. Jack kerouac became a godfather for the counterculture. The village has a life and language all its own. If you dig it, you are hip, if you dont man, you are square. Coffee houses, the Neighborhood Bars of bohemia, where the strongest potion is coffee, and the Coffeehouse Poets is the specialty of the house. Find a place where the ice can rest. Beatniks, they had these Coffee Houses where they would go in and play chess, and read poetry, and those same Coffee Houses became kind of a Proving Ground for folk singers. All young kids were running out to buy guitars and banjos. Standing down in new york town. Folk music, it gives me a lot more in the Popular Music of our own time. My outlook is that topical songs should be some, because we dont do anything it will come to an end. This has got to be an alternative to whatever ways in life are offered to them. Democrat, republican. And i would like to offer some kind of alternative, somehow. He had a big part of politics. You cant get left politics out of Woody Guthrie or pete seeger. So, the Greenwich Village movement was there to celebrate peoples culture. If you like the music, you are really signing onto the ways of the world too. And eventually one guy emerges this big special. A bullet from the back of a bush. During that time, in the 60s, as that cultural revolution was slowly bubbling, and kids were starting to question authority, question what was happening in their country, they are looking for answers. Bob dylan thought that boldness was poetry. He brought that energy and mixed it with folk culture, and it is more of lyrical intensity than anyone has put a song before. And the knee grows name, it is for the politicians gain as he rises to fame. Up until the time of bob dylan, there were the songwriters, and there were the singers. Dylan started writing his own music. He says, i am going to comment on the world, i am going to comment on the nature of this human experience. Bob dylan was in this sort of whitehot moment of saying more on the popular song than anyone ever had before. Only upon in their game after the revolution of bob dylan, the music moves west. Go where you want to go, do what you want to do. Moral canyon becomes the epicenter of the rock revolution. The music scene was not happening in new york anymore. It was now l. A. Everybody moved to Laurel Canyon. Actors, musicians, artists, so it was kind of a whole community. Very open. If you are driving over Laurel Canyon and you saw some the hitchhiking, you just would automatically pull over, hey, brother, getting, where are you going . Laurel canyon was an incredibly interesting place to live in those days. I lived on Lookout Mountain with joni mitchell. Crosby was close, stephen was close. Now it was all of these artists who were singing the truth, and their truth was this idyllic, sort of sense of freedom. There was a Thriving Community of kids that would discovering their new lives, and they couldnt wait to play the new songs they had written. There was a lot of new freedom, there was a lot of drugs, a lot of beautiful women, a lot of good rock n roll being made. It was a fabulous time. Do whatever you want to do. I was stuck.

They reflect the sun, sensuality let me take you down to the river bed. These are students at a high school in los angeles. They reflect the sun, sensuality, and affluence, which dominate life in southern california. The latest fad is the sunset strip. During the past year, it has become a playground for southern californias mobile, restless teenagers. It is the place to go. People would meet down at clubs on the sunset strip, and they would go to the trip, or they would go to the gogo. It was really happening. We would change from a culture of grownups that sort of looked down on kids, to kids leading. It is the creation of the teenager. And the revolution begins. Youngsters. The notion of teenagers who the Los Angeles County Sheriffs Office has begun foot patrol on the sunset strip, to cope with the growing influx of youngsters. The notion of teenagers, who had a culture of their own, who werent listening to their parents music, it kind of opens up this giant space for rebellions, large and small. At least 10 of the students have used, and are using marijuana. Also, probably a very significant thing is acceptance is gaining steadily on the usages, really. Increasing very rapidly. We were all smoking gods herb. Whereas, in San Francisco, it seems like they were experiencing more with mind expansion. You know . They took classes of writing at stanford, university, and writes the great novel, one flew over the cuckoos nest. And this makes him a celebrity. While it is standard, i was given the opportunity to go to the stanford hospital, and take part in the lsd experiments. Reporter tc had volunteered to do tests for lsd and governmentsponsored tests. Lsd was isolated by hoffman from a company in switzerland. Are you happy . Yes. You have tears in your eyes. Oh is that a beautiful experience would you say . I would say, yes. Some people say it is when kesey discovers lsd, that the counterculture in california is board, because more and more people want to try to experience what kesey experienced, and he becomes a promoter of it. Kesey created a drug commune at law hondo, an hour from San Francisco. Rate artists love smashing traditions, and it is best, kesey was doing that. Everybody would have this communal lsd trip together. Tom wolf would write the electric koolaid about it. People were constantly slipping drugs in my food, i would get up and say what is happening . The bunch of us were too big to fit in a station wagon, so he bought this converted school bus. Kesey, he was going to put the bus in , bright colors. And go unsettling america, blowing peoples minds. The whole idea of blowing peoples minds was that you have to present something to them, and it is so different there is a crack comes open, in which something new can come in. And the reaction to all of these people was wonderful, because what it was, in 1964 there was no other thing like this happening. It is part of a kind of cultural revolution going on making the squares paid notice to this underground of america. When we got to new york city, which is the home of beats, where carol locke lived, and picked him up, because we were in his presence, we were just acting as goofy as we could, doing all kinds of acts and stuff like that. And Carol Locke Sat on the couch, drinking a big tall budweiser, he was obviously not an enthusiastic guy. Those beats had done their thing. I really felt like the torch had been passed from those guys to the psychedelic generation. Kesey in many ways was miss janik and he started feeling that acid would allow you to see a larger truth. And he was saying lets get as many people to try lsds he can. We started running halls. We called the thing the acid test. The band, of course, was known as the warlocks. As time went on they changed their name to the grateful dead. In and out of the garden he goes. Country gone in the wind and the rain, wherever he goes, the people all complain. Lsd was not an illegal drug. When kesey held these acid tests, as they were known, he had two bouts, one was punch and one was punch with lsd. The acid tests were like a party. The scene was a lot of light shows, and music, and people dancing. And when the dead were playing, it was a way to feel that acid in waves. And i looked down, and i saw kids in front of me, moving to the music. They looked up at me, and i said, yeah. The drug culture really took hold, and that is the artists, the grateful dead, jefferson airplane, were able to embrace it and put it in their music. The counterculture in california is born, because more and more people want to try to experience what kesey experienced, and he kind of became the grand koopa of San Francisco in the 1960s.

Cbs news, without any flowers and its here, is in San Francisco, because the city has gained the reputation of being the Hippie Capitol of the world. I got accepted in San Francisco state, and i found an apartment at clayton street, right in the center of what would become the haightashbury. It started just over a year ago, it spreads the gospel of a dreamy, new utopia, raised on brotherhood, love, and lsd. To all of the people out there that are confused and waiting for some kind of spiritual meaning in life, that is why all of these people are done here, thats why theres so much interest to because it offers some kind of hope. We moved up and lived right down the street from the psychedelic shop. You were growing their hair long, they were playing music on the street. It was just an incredible environment at the beginning. That is when it was just like one big giant family. Before you knew it it was a a congregating place for artists, and The Dividing Line seems to be the psychedelic experience. You couldnt understand the posters, you couldnt understand the fashions. You couldnt understand anything if you hadnt gotten high. He scratches food and money, those who arrive to panhandle park. Sharing is their manifesto. Everything is shared, everything free. The diggers were one of the first groups that were into social consciousness about what was needed to take care of this huge group of people that were coming into the haightashbury. Their free shop looks more like a playground at first sight. Here, they make clothes for other hippies who come in take what they want, without paying anything for it. Everything in the store was free. Tools, clothing, televisions, and so, we were inviting people to imagine the way of life that would please them, and then to make it real by doing it. What we are thinking about is a peaceful planet, we are not thinking about anything else, we are not thinking about any kind of power, or struggles were revolution or war or any of that. That is not what we want. Nobody wants to get hurt, nobody wants to hurt anybody. We would all like to be able to live an uncluttered life, a simple life, a good life, you know . And think about moving the whole human race ahead a step or a few steps. We wanted to learn more about the real meaning of life. Why are we here . Certainly, not to kill each other, but here to celebrate life, to make music, and do art and love each other. These people are hippies. They represent a new form of social rebellion. It is hard to figure out what positive things they are in favor of. The reason we can no longer identify with the kinds of activities that the older generation are engaged in is because those activities are, for us, meaningless. They led to a monstrous war in vietnam, for example. We did want change from war, from rigid ideas of what the sexes ought to be doing. A change, from black people ought to be here, and white people ought to be here, no. Why cant we make that try and work . The haightashbury community has created a counsel for the Summer Of Love in San Francisco. The council is calling for creative love happenings for every weekend throughout the summer. We ask all who come here to come here in love, and we ask all who live here to greet all men with love. They, at their best, trying for a kind of group sainthood, and saints running in groups are likely to be ludicrous. They depend on hallucination for their philosophy. This is not a new idea, and it has never worked. There was sort of a divide of generations, a lot of mistrust, young people didnt trust old people, old people didnt understand young people. What is so offensive about longhair . It looks sloppy. It doesnt it doesnt differentiate the boys from the girls enough. We didnt call ourselves hippies. The hippies are a fabrication. They were an attempt to diminish young adults and infantilized us, and it certainly serves to exclude the people that were deeply thoughtful about the world, that were ready to dedicate their lives to making change, and question the paradigm of materialism. Look around, nothing works. The only thing the kid is presented with us to grow up looking. You can join the army, go to work, get a gig working as an engineer, drive to work in your own car, your own big metal box, and it just, it looks absurd. People in their metal boxes like this going all over, from job to job, frustrated and up tight. What joy is there in life . Life should be life is and should be ecstasy. The counterculture had the arrogance to tell everybody else what they are doing is wrong, and nobody likes that. It is estimated that anywhere from 10200,000 youngsters may pour into Haight Ashbury the summer. Many people are apprehensive. They fear that black power, or other political activist groups may use Haight Street as a setting for rights. Haightashbury cannot handle 8000, there isnt any room. The tension between the government and the people began to be evident. Nobody should let their Young Children coming to San Francisco unsupervised, to become a part of a group, such as that. They are fascists, as far as im concerned. They dont like hippies, they dont know what things we do, and they try to harass us and bother us. In some way, their revolutions are worth between generations. The hippies rallying cry is Never Trust Anyone over 30. The war of Youth Culture over establishment is in full swing on every front. About four policeman and a plane came in and said everybody get out, everybody get out, the store is closed, they wouldnt give a reason, or identify and what premise they are doing this, when we asked, they started pushing people around physically out of the store. The mayor, its very insidious what he is up to. He wants to stop human growth. Be leaders say all is well, they say flower power. They say it will be a Summer Of Love, great pilgrimage. Hopefully they will be right. It is necessary to bring in national guard, i will bring in national guard. I will use whatever force is necessary.

How do you answer the questions of parents, who are concerned about the use of lsd and marijuana for their children . These are young people who are hungry for older people, for their parents to listen to them. These youngsters want to share with their parents the grandeur and the glory that they are encountering, and perhaps, eventually, when you are spiritually ready, you will turn on with your children, if you think that is the right thing to do. Monterey park. It was the absolute ultimate love in. The window, just looking out at the rain. The best festival that i have played, pretty much ever, is Monterey Park festival. Monterey hit like lightning. Popular music was changing, and become something different, and it was a whole new generation of people that wanted to march with it. They said, get on board. We are leaving town. I want you to love you, i want to love you, but so long oh, yeah you realize this is janis joplin before she was known, before she ever done her first album, before she had ever done her first single. I of the rain. Sun came along, hung its it is just music at its freshest. It is music that is just being born. And the audiences like eye of the rain once in a while, people tell me what, honey, what love is like, its like a ball and a chain. Bust anybody. Everything was love, and peace, and music, and the policeman who was in charge brought flowers out to his men, and he said, dont bust anybody. Monterey was that hippie dream come true. Culture was changing. The Hippie Movement, it was swaying the mainstream. This is where the youngsters come to buy their clothes, and not just the youngsters, it is the young adults, and the men who were 40, 50, and even 60 years old. In the states, it is spreading like prohibition. As more and more citizens get zonked out of their minds, the drug enters the bloodstream of american life. Like it or not, we are living in the stoned age. At its best, the counterculture came in with hard punches to the Mainstream Culture. People have already changed their minds about contraception, abortion, premarital sex. The 1960s were absolutely a sexual revolution, because of the pill women could take charge of their own bodies, they could be sexual, they didnt have to get pregnant. Everything sort of coalesced says the perfect storm of societal forces coming together. Here, if you love somebody, and people here love everybody, if you want to make love to somebody then you should. There is no reason why you shouldnt. Freelove was all well and good, there was a lot of accidental sex. But we didnt look at it as hedonism. People were just so open to each other, and life was beautiful, you know . And people werent judgmental. The mainstream young people, were telling their parents, youve been prohibiting my sexual freedom and the puritan work ethic is bunk. It was clear the rules were changing, and the rules really were that there were no rules. Only for a limited time at ihop. rsv can be a dangerous virus. [sneeze]. For those 60 and older.

Here is the progenitor, really, of the Counterculture Disowning his own babies and try to make sense of a decade of 60s that he didnt feel married to. Families kind of a dionysia movement. Which i did not intend. This was pure in my heart. So all sorts of people have been writing various articles about the hippies, usually about the hippies as if they were animals, something to look at. Weve got 1000 and literally thousands of people to come up and watch people, it makes haightashbury a terribly unpleasant place to be. News got out about the haightashbury. It became overrun. We are now entering what is known as the largest Hippie Colony in the world. The fountainhead of the hippie subculture. The nickname is hash berries, and marijuana, of course, lsd is being used. Literally, people made the trip to San Francisco to be a part of something, but by the time they got there, that trip was over. This is the latest stage in the evolution of the Hippie Movement. The hippies are trying to get away. So, they go out to a cabin in the countryside and start a commune. Here, they can get away from the tourists and the reporters of San Francisco. Communes started, and this is really what the Hippie Movement was all about. The idea of sharing everything, clothes and food and everything. People could just help themselves. We lived communally, because it was the cheapest way to live. A lot of people began to clarify and simplify their lives. What will follow this dispersal of the Hippie Movement to the countryside is hard to forget. They may be, as they say, coming here to build the foundations of a new society in this nation, or they may be coming, like the woolly mammoth, to find their own extinction. Down where the sun never shines, Down In The Woods Worthy would find twine. I was waiting for the New York Times in the catskills, and there were just a couple of us going up there. As we went north of the city, we began to run into traffic jams. I asked a cop, what is going on . He said, i dont know, there were thousands of people here, they were all going to some farm, and it was, of course, woodstock. I think woodstock was an opportunity for people to realize they werent alone. A lot of people when they are in their hometown, or within their family felt isolated realized they werent. The townspeople, quite frankly, were terrified at the prospect of the hippie arrival. I was apprehensive. This little hamlet has a population of under 100 people. When i started hearing the figures were 200,000, 300 finally 500,000, we had a sea of people. The word got out. Everybody and their brother came from all over the country. First, the sudden rain, then, the thirst and hunger from the shortage of water and food, just for the opportunity to spend a few days in the country, getting stoned on their drugs and grooving on the music. We got together and have a little powwow about what are we going to do to feed these people . You went into new york, 1500 pounds of darts, 130,000 paper plate, 130,000 dixie cups, and i believe we served 200,000 people. By now, there are tens of thousands of people who feel themselves to be an irresistible river of change. And you get something incandescent. Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, singing freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom. Freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, freedom, we had had lovins on the weekend in l. A. , where everybody gets dressed up and go to the park and brings an instrument, but to see Hundreds Of Thousands of people, like a meeting of all of the tribes, from all over the country, we didnt know there was so many of us that felt the same. We must be in heaven, man a rock music festival, Drew Thousands of young people to a dairy farm in white lake, new york, over a weekend, came to an end today. There was marijuana, as well as music, at the rockville festival, but also no rioting. What did not happen at that barry farm is possibly more significant than what did happen. These longhaired, mostly white kids in their blue jeans and sandals were no wideeyed anarchists looking for trouble. They remained polite. Residents and resorts freely emptied their cupboards for the kids. Merchants were stunned by their politeness. While such a spectacle may never happen again, it has recorded the growing proportions of this useful culture in the mind of america.

Well, its going to be San Francisco. Woodstock was followed by altamont only a few months later. And there couldnt have been two more different concerts. The jefferson airplane, jefferson airplane. We had had the hells angels be security at a number of free in the park concerts that we had done. And they were fine. Ne. They were funny. They were doing what they were supposed to do. So we suggested using hells angels. What happened was a lot of speed and alcohol. Thats a deadly combination for bikers. Marty said the fword to one of the hells angels while we were on stage. The hells angel knocks him down. That was just the beginning. Id like to mention that the hells angels just smashed marty balin in the facesmashed and knocked him out for a bit. Id like to thank you for that. Youre talking to me im gonna talk to you. Im not talking to you, man, im talking to the people that hit my lead singer in the head. Youre talking to my people. Now, let me tell you whats happening. You are what is happening. No one pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small and the ones that mother gives you dont do anything at all oh, thats what the story is here . Oh, bummer. Really man, its scary. Who is doing all the beating . Hells angels. Hells angels are doing beating on musicians . Marty got beat up. Go ask alice, i think shell know when logic when we left, it was dark, and the Rolling Stones were on. And we were on a helicopter. Paul kantner looked out and said wow, it looks like somebody is getting killed out there. Ing and he was right, they were. In california, five members of a socalled religious cult, including Charles Manson, the guru, or high priest have been indicted in the murder of sharon tate and six others. All the elements are present for one of the most sensational murder trials in american history. Seven people brutally murdered in the glare of hollywood publicity. The involvement of a mystical hippie clan which despised the straight affluent society. Young girls reportedly under the spell of a bearded svengali. Who allegedly masterminded the seven murders. Good morning. The suns shining this morning. It is. Hining this morning. Charles manson cleverly masqueraded behind the common image of being a hippie, goes up to Haight Ashbury district, surrounds himself with a young bunch of followers. Their lifestyle was sex, orgies and lsd trips. Eventually he gets them to commit mass murder for him. With blood, the killer had scrawled on a Refrigerator Door the words death to pigs. You see, prior to these murders, no one associated hippies with violence and murder. People would pick up a hitchhiking hippie. There was no big deal. But after the manson murders, you saw a hippie with long hair hitchhiking, and the image of manson would enter the drivers mind and they would drive right by. By the time of Charles Manson and watching altamont and seeing what happened there, it symbolizes the drained idealism of the spiritual quest of the beats and early hippies. Today is magic is gone. Aimless and disorganized, the hippies have fallen prey to their own free spirit. Free love, free drugs and too much free publicity have gradually corrupted them. Something happened to Haight Ashbury since last year. We hear its not the same place. No, it isnt. The loveins brought more and more people. And people who are really just bums, trying to get into a good thing, free food and free everything. They all just came in and a lot of really rotten people. So now you really have a bad thing. It used to be you could set your stuff down beside the road. Nobody would touch it. And now you got so you couldnt even put your things inside of a building. Somebody would come along and take everything you had. One day i woke up very hungry, very dirty and tired and disgusted. So i decided, you know, to get a job, settle down and get serious. Joes job is making jewelry. He has been taking a sixmonth course to learn how. It was hard in the beginning, getting up at 8 00 every morning, doing all those changes. Joe bought the suit, unkmptable though it looked. Will he be equally uncomfortable in his new life . Mfortable in his there have been Generation Gaps before but todays is probably the widest yet. Can the joes of america. Bridge the gap and conform without Society Making concessions in return . Id say there is a Common Element in the counterculture of people trying to invent a new world. But people mature. Their Point Of View gets more nuanced. The costs start to come due. Children come into the world. That idea of sex, drugs and rock n roll, its a youth dream then youth dies. Yet our Mainstream Culture took what it needed from the hippies. The Actual Movement of the 60s was the Movement Toward something more authentic. In the sixties, we thought of other people as part of our own family. We were into caring for society as a whole. This is what the revolution is all about. Mercy is better than justice. The carrot is better than the stick. And the most important lesson is be kind. Be kind. To me every day was a high watermark. We played music all day long. We worked. We did not have jobs. It was the most carefree period of my life. Dylan has this great line in an early song. He says i wish, i wish, i wish in vain that we could sit simply in that room again simpa Thousand Dollarsain at the drop of a hat id give it all gladly if our lives could be like that. Theres the beatles you guys are nothing but a bunch of british elvis presleys. Its not true, its not true when the beatles arrive
