Good stuff, folks. NOW we're cookin'. As far as I was concerned, the 60's did not end until 1975, as I said above. Believe me, it was all 60's culture in Toronto till then. Then the price of oil shot through the rood, the economy tanked, Yorkville and the coffeehouse scene died, the music industry decided to shove disco down everybody's throat, and the fabled 60's were over. (sigh)

I guess we should definitely include the films "Woodstock", "Altamont", and "Monterrey Pop Festival", as well as maybe David Bowie's first concert movie (Ziggy Stardust?). Although Bowie's glamrock was something new at the time, it was still an extension of the 60's consciousness in many ways.

I am really rather thankful that I have never sat through "Love Story". :-)

"She Devils On Wheels"???? GAD! How did I miss that?
