Hippie Music Anyone?

Since we're talkin' Hippy Music, here, let it be said The Moody Blues brought me through some far out trips . . .
 

"IN-A-GADDA-DA-VIDA"!!! Arrrrrgh . . . Uncle Sam decided I could best serve our efforts as a photographer in Vietnam. As my head got spun around and I started mouthing off . . . they decided to stick me in a darkroom for hours on end. I still went on assignments. But, when not busy bringing the war to the esteemed pages of your local rag, it was back in the dark. One of the guys brought me a cassette recorder with only one tape . . . Yep, Iron Butterfly. GAWD, do I know "inagaddadavida"?!?!?!!!
 
My "Band" (me and one other guy) have been working on "Shine on you crazy diamond" by Pink Floyd lately. Just he on acoustic guitar and me on electric. It's starting to come together well.

Hey, there's another great hippie song - "Come Together" by The Beatles!

A great song for the sad, sad demise of Syd Barrett. In high school, my buddy Ed and I formed a duo we called Me 'n' Ed which was a take on a local pizza joint Me 'n' Ed's. We had fun writing parodies of recent popular hits and even emceed a couple of hootenannies. Remember hootenannies?!?!?!?!?
