I would add Janis Joplin.




I did mention Big Brother & The Holding Company in thread #7.

Their second album, Cheap Thrills, is an all-time classic, both the music and Robert Crumb's art work.

Quintessential hippie music:

Excellent choice. Should be in top ten for whatever singles came from the genre.

There is one song that to me is The Hippie Song - I can't think of his name, but the song is Are you going to San Francisco - I think.



The last song of the set list in the original post, you mean?

San Fransisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)

Written by John Phillips (The Mamas and the Papas).




Edwird -> RE: Hippie music (6/9/2016 3:38:09 AM)


I think someone earlier mentioned Joni.

Songs to Aging Children Come







TheBanshee -> RE: Hippie music (6/9/2016 6:38:26 PM)

In addition to what others have mentioned, I would also add the Cowsills, the soundtrack to Godspell, And Judy Collins




TheBanshee -> RE: Hippie music (6/9/2016 6:39:49 PM)

Oh gosh how could I not mention Peter, Paul and Mary




WhoreMods -> RE: Hippie music (6/10/2016 6:51:48 AM)

Well, if we're having folk singers, how about Bob Dylan and Joan Baez? You could maybe make a case for Sandy Denny, Pearls Before Swine, Pentangle, some Fairport Convention, Gryphon, John Martyn and Steeleye Span as well. (Not Richard and Linda Thompson, though: the best stuff is way too nasty to be at all hippyish.)
And the Incredible String Band, of course. There was a bunch of hippies and then some...




WhoreMods -> RE: Hippie music (6/10/2016 2:28:50 PM)

Didn't put in clips for anybody I've named (apart from Scott McKenzie) so:
ISB - Painting Box
David McWilliams - The Days Of Pearly Spencer
Keith West - Excerpt From A Teenage Opera
Gryphon - The Unquiet Grave
Mellow Candle - Boulders On My Grave
John Martyn - I'd Rather Be The Devil
Steeleye Span - Alison Gross
Fuschia - Me And My Kite

And that's quite enough hippies for one post.
I'm off to look for some Snivelling Shits videos on youtube to recover...
[:D]

Maybe because you missed #5 in the original post?

This was the event at which Martin Luther King (which the whole shebang was about) gave his famous "I Have a Dream!" speech.

I was hoping one or two people would notice.

It was 'The March on Washington' historical event.

Fairport Convention: What We Did on Our Holidays

The only time having both Iain Matthews and Sandy Denny in house, on that one album.

Some things are/were even more important than Hippies.

Sandy Denny - Who Knows Where The Time Goes?
Van Der Graaf Generator - Refugees




Edwird -> RE: Hippie music (6/13/2016 7:47:12 AM)


Talk about saving best for last ...

Alongside Light My Fire, what kicked it off;

Don't You Want Somebody to Love

Yes, it's mimed, but Grace is so all there, any event. It was standard and mandated for the show, even in event of musicians 10 times better than that.

Grace being the only sane one in the group, while we're at it.







Edwird -> RE: Hippie music (6/13/2016 8:03:09 AM)

It gets so tiresome trying to get thoughts through to English teachers, I use fewer words in r/l. Hence prosody of above.

Nevertheless;

As You Said







Edwird -> RE: Hippie music (6/13/2016 8:33:20 AM)


And, not to leave this one off;

Pressed Rat and Warthog

Edwird -> RE: Hippie music (6/13/2016 8:43:39 AM)


Kids teach us so much.

However else would we have come across rasta-hippos?





Edwird -> RE: Hippie music (6/13/2016 8:47:09 AM)


Sometimes, I wish I could have some brats of my own ...

I can hear all the parents, now ...

NO! Stopp!





Edwird -> RE: Hippie music (6/13/2016 8:49:08 AM)


I feel cheated, CHEATED!, I tell you!
