1969 - did not go quiet as decades before had disappeared into the lost memories of history buffs. “Woodstock“, “Hippy“, “The Summer Of Love“, “Haight and Asbury” will remain with thoughts of daisies slid into the business end of the rifle barrel, “Make Love Not War”! Love-beads swinging wildly about the necks of bell bottom clad, long haired kids crying out for Peace and Equality, a message still too often unheard. Voices now muffled by years unheard. Pictures like memories lost or hidden away. But the music goes on never to be silenced. WOODSTOCK forever to remain the voice of a generation.

Yes there was a lot of sex, probably way to many drugs, but it is the peace and the love that has carried me through to this my 60th summer. It is the Peace and Love that will be my legacy. Through the pain that is too often reality it is the peace and love in the beat that goes on . . .
