In reply to the discussion: 50 yrs ago today; "Are You Experienced" is released [View all]Mr.Bill
(24,282 posts)37. It was the beginning of a very wonderful summer.
I was 14 and it was the summer before I started high school. I lived 50 miles from San Francisco. I spent a few weekends that summer in the Haight Ashbury. It was a six week block party. As Paul Kanter of the Jefferson Airplane said, "For about six weeks, everything was just perfect".
I smoked my first joint that summer. I often wonder how different my life would have been had I not experienced the Summer of Love.
