It is often said "If you can remember the Sixties,then you weren't really there". Ironically no-one remembers who actually first said this. My memories of this decade are a little hazy now, this being due to me reaching my 60s rather than the effects of any mind altering substances, but the one thing I do remember is the music.
I have listened to music from this decade for all of my life and the artists still play live even though some are well into their seventies. That brings me around to the purpose of this post: I am about to embark on a journey to bring back memories of that heady period. Tomorrow I fly to San Francisco and on Saturday will be seeing Crosby,Stills, Nash &Young live in concert.
My trip, over the course of the next seven days, will be a mixture of music nostalgia, modern technology (I'm staying in the heart of Silicon Valley) and good old-fashioned tourism. You will be able to follow my progress here, but as this is a solo trip I apologise now for any grammatical errors in my postings. Sylvia usually checks this before I post but this time she will be reading it at the same time as everyone else.
Next post when I arrive.
