FEBRUARY 1969

EXPERIENCE the HISTORICAL HEIGHT of POP and ROCK and PSYCHEDELIC CULTURE!

1969 was a very heavy year; on February 21 00individual turned 18, and in the same month as a mid-term student he graduated high school – two major lifetime accomplishments beginning a truly historic year.

Upon graduation, 00individual went to West L.A. college on the past site of M.G.M’s Backlot 3.
He only lasted one session when he was able to snag a job in a real art department – this is what he was going to college for – to get a job in an art department – and eventually become Master of Space and Time – after conquering the Art World!

While the job didn’t happen until late Spring there was a definite vibe of freedom in the air and by early Summer 00individual was out on his own renting a beach pad with two friends.

To be 18 in ’69 was a wondrous thing, while every day offered thrills, 1969, the last year of an incredible decade, held excitement and anticipation of the unknown ’70s, for 00individual, and as the year progressed, for the world. (7 legitimate commas in one sentence!)

Happenings:

Unfortunately, it was way ahead of its time with quick editing, computer assisted development, and with very risque skits and bits – it was too much too soon – Laugh-In on acid.

No February 1969 Movies to speak of,

00INDIVIDUAL AND FRIENDS WERE HAULED IN AND QUESTIONED FOR
ATTEMPTED MURDER:

Strangely the only movie of note released in February was “The Night of the Following Day” with Marlon Brando, Richard Boone, Rita Moreno and up and coming young British actress Pamela Franklin. Pamela Franklin lived a few streets away from 00individual back in the late ’60s. There were several well-known name actors and a couple L.A. Dodger baseball team members who lived in the neighborhood also.

One weekend 00individual and a car full of fools rode around the neighborhood in a convertible raisin’ Hell like boys will do.

The following Monday they were all individually called into the Vice Principal’s office to be questioned by Sgt. Nip of the Venice Police Department on suspicion of attempted murder as there were shots fired into Pamela Franklin’s house the day they were out joy-riding and someone in the neighborhood was able to identify the fools in the convertible as possible suspects.

00individual and friends were cleared of all suspicions and insinuating accusations.

“Bohemian Rhapsody” Brings Attention To The Cult Of Classic Rock

“Classic Rock Collage” Copyright 2019 00individual  TLL

The Cult Of Classic Rock

For those who had any doubt that Queen would become one of the top representatives of Classic Rock need only to hear the first tack from their first album, “Keep Yourself Alive” – WHEW!

With all of the current attention, acclaim, awards, and nearly $200 million box office over the Freddie Mercury / Queen film “Bohemian Rhapsody” it has now become the gateway drug to the appreciation of Queen’s entire catalog – and that in turn has created interest in other Classic Rock bands and Classic Rock in general.

This growing discovery and rediscovery however is not new, just revealed by this movie.

For many years now, nearly all internet videos of an Oldies, Pop, Rock, or Soul song from the ’60s and ’70s are accompanied by kids, teenagers, and young adults’ comments of the love for these songs to the point of truly yearning to have been living then, when it was happening.

They also realized that the music reflected life, a time when there was joy in the music, which meant that there just had to be joy in life, and there was.

(“In The Future The 1960s And The 1970s Will Be Seen As A Mythic Paradise.” – 00individual)

This gives 00individual great satisfaction to see each generation at some point to not only appreciate its greatness, but to rock out to Classic Rock.

It was a blessed era when Classic Rock didn’t need time to pass in order to earn that rank, no, it was a phenomenon that was felt immediately – those reverberations from the electric guitars struck a Rock DNA chord that was too good to be true, but it was true.

These bands and songs were born Classic, and is the reason why the Cult Of Classic Rock is on the rise; through the realization of what is truly great.

Once you’ve explored all genres of music there’s only one that empowers and lifts the spirit –
Classic Rock.

.

Classic Rock is timeless; and while encompassing the entire ’60s and ’70s decades, for historic reasons 1965 through 1975 were the core years of Classic Rock.
And of those ten years of Surf Rock, the British Invasion, Psychedelic Rock, birth of Hard Rock and Progressive Rock, height of Folk Rock, Southern Rock, Shock Rock, Arena Rock, the emergence of Glam and Electronica, and the beginnings of New Wave and Punk there were three years that were statistically outstanding on many levels; the era of “Album Rock” contributed greatly to record companies’ growing catalogs and the high-volume of releases by insanely talented and prolific individuals and bands during this classic three year era – those three are:

1969

TOP 30 TV SHOWS OF 1968!

The year 1968 stuck with traditional tried and true series except for the quick outrageous show that was enjoyed by everyone, including Nixon, the number one “Rowan & Martin’s Laugh-In”.
With Laugh-In, it was basically a psychedelic version of Mad magazine skits and bits, but it was the talent and characters on the show that viewers gravitated to; Goldie Hawn, Arte Johnson, Ruth Buzzi, Henry Gibson, Joanne Worley, Gary Owens, Judy Carne, and Dick Martin..
Unlike the very popular but controversial The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour, Laugh-In stuck with sometimes corny, but mostly witty fare that delivered a fun time for stoners and their parents alike.

1968 was a stone groove, but as 1969 signaled the end of the Swingin’ ’60s it also served to provide fuel for the Psychedelic ’70s.

1969 was the beginning of the Big Three: 1969, 1970, 1971 – the trifecta of prolific musical creativity, by the world’s best bands, singers, and musicians, accounting for the highest amount of Classic Rock records released per year.

The Cult of Album Listening was in its glory.

00individual’s first post of each month in 2019 will highlight each month of 1969, celebrating yet another magickal 50th year anniversary, and the historic end of the 1960s decade.

And for those who want to experience the 50th anniversaries of the two year build up to the truly cosmic events of 1969:

Celebrate the 50th Anniversary of 1969 – featuring JANUARY

“1969 – 2019: 50 Year Anniversary” copyright 2018 00individual  TLL

JANUARY 1969

EXPERIENCE the HISTORICAL HEIGHT of POP and ROCK and PSYCHEDELIC CULTURE!

1969 was a heavy year; while the tensions and horrors of the War, Manson Family Murders, Altamont, My Lai, and the Stonewall Riots darkened the overall vibe, there were still strong relentless positive forces at work.  Among the positives were; civil rights and anti-war demonstrations and protests, the preview of what the next decade would provide shown in the overwhelming emergence of musical talent, bands, composers, musicians, and singers, and the three day peace and love concert that made history and defined 1969: Woodstock.

1969 marked the beginning of the last year of the most historic decade in history, and there was anticipation in the air celebrating all of the triumphs, turmoil, and experiences of the past nine years while moving into the new decade.

While the end of any decade held the history of the ten years before, and are forever referenced individually, such as; the ’20s, ’30s, ’40s, and the ’50s – there is an exception with the ’60s and ’70s – as they are the only decades joined naturally in conversation. There is a very unique reason for that; no two decades had the natural blend that they did – and while each was distinctly different, there was enough commonality to be forever linked.

Fifty years ago on January 1, 1969, 00individual was seven weeks away from turning eighteen and also graduating high school as a mid-term student. For those who chose to go on to colleges and universities the classroom and homework continued, but for those who chose to experience institutions of higher learning in the real world found themselves with the responsibilities of a full time job, and payments due for rent, utilities, car insurance, groceries – all for the opportunity to live an independent life.

00individual was one of the latter, and thanks to a high school classroom doodle he was able to land an art department job and rent a beach pad that he split with two good buddies.

And when your life and job are so much fun that you forget you’re even working, well, does it really ever get any better than that?

That was 1969 – a time when the thrill of living was felt everyday.

And while this could describe any young soul getting out in the world, there was a big difference – ‘cuz out there we wuz stoned – immaculate.

So, as we explore this last year of the 1960 decade, from a half-century ago, let’s celebrate a time when Rock music was a force that empowered and informed, when Pop music put a smile on one’s face and uplifted spirits, when songs were destined to resonate through the decades as timeless classics, and when Sex, Drugs, and Rock ‘n’ Roll Ruled!

1960′s Historic & Classic Rock Albums . . . . . . . . . . The Beatles (White Album) November 22, 1968 50th Anniversary!

THE BEATLES – The White Album
50th Anniversary!

1968: the Most Historic Year in Modern American History was coming to an end; as was the undisputed most influential band ever, The Beatles.

All of the tales told of the Beatles demise were obvious; four talented musicians who stopped touring in ‘66, the death of Manager Brian Epstein in ’67 made them personally involved in legal and financial conflicts, they had artistic differences, and all four worked on solo album projects. And then there was Yoko. The band oath of no wives or girlfriends while recording was broken by John with Yoko’s involvement (again, seriously was that necessary?) 00individual believes this was just a ploy used by John to advance the breakup process, McCartney took the bait and by ‘70 they realized the band would not regroup.

There were so many tracks on this double album that the grooves were so narrow that it took three returned copies to Crane’s Records in Inglewood and a brand new needle before 00individual had two vinyl records that didn’t skip.

Looking at the titles brings 00individual back to the ending days – the end of the 12th grade, and heading into the end of the 1960’s decade, 1969. Trippy.

The Rock
!965 – The Beatles – “I’m Down” – the B-side to the single “Help” – it took the Beatles until 1968 to finally return and kick some “I’m Down” ass and blow the roof off with some Hard Rock.

There are the expected amount of ballads, love songs, and ditties, but it was the Rock of the opening track, “Back in the U.S.S.R.” that clearly sent the message that these Lads still had some Rock that needed to be cut loose. “While My Guitar Gently Weeps”, “Happiness Is a Warm Gun”, “Birthday”, “Yer Blues”, “Everybody’s Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey”, “Helter Skelter”, “Revolution 1”, “Savoy Truffle” – this was some much-needed Rock to add to their Pop catalog.

The Album Cover
While the extremely understated choice for the cover was an obvious diametrically opposed reaction to the overwhelming detail and color of their Sgt. Pepper’s album cover – and once the Stones went lenticular with Their Satanic Majesties Request,  what was the World’s Greatest Pop Band to do? Apparently nothing. And it will always be seen as a lost opportunity. A blank white album cover with an embossed “The Beatles” and numbered may have sounded revolutionary chic back then but it wasn’t – it was a disappointment and a lazy uninspired attempt at making a non-statement. Boo!

The Cult of Album Rock
Even with the FM radio stations, only the most favored tracks were played, 00individual remembers all of these songs as strongly as the “hits” – evidence of many repeated listenings – stack those LPs (no more than two, although three if necessary) then flip ’em. The Cult of Album Rock through listening to albums repeatedly by oneself, or in a group, a party, or just hangin’ out was like the air, and the 1968 White Album was a terrific decade-ending precursor to The Beatles’ true Farewell Album – 1969’s Abbey Road.
