Danny Goldberg's new book is a subjective background of 1967, the entire year he graduated from high school. It really is, he writes in the benefits, "an effort at trying to keep in mind the culture that mesmerized me, to go to the places and conversations I had not been cool enough to get been an integral part of." Additionally it is a refreshing and new evaluation of the time; by looking at not only the political triggers, but also the spiritual, musical, and psychedelic moves, Goldberg offers a unique perspective on how and just why the legacy of 1967 lives on today. 1967 was the entire year of the release of the Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Group, and of debut albums from the Entry doors, the Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, and Janis Joplin, among many others. As well as the thriving music arena, 1967 was also the entire year of the Summer of Love, the entire year that an incredible number of now-illegal LSD tabs flooded America. Muhammad Ali was convicted of preventing the draft; Martin Luther King, Jr., publicly compared the warfare in Vietnam. Stokely Carmichael championed Black colored Power. Israel earned the Six-Day Conflict, and Che Guevara was murdered. It had been the entire year that thousands of protesters vainly attemptedto levitate the Pentagon. It had been the year the word "hippie" peaked and perished, and the Yippies were delivered.
