Inside The LC: The Strange but Mostly True Story of Laurel Canyon and the Birth of the Hippie Generation

It wasn't actually the birth. It was the infiltration and destruction.

“No one could recall ever seeing or hearing about Gram being involved in a protest of any sort.”

Author Ben Fong Torres, who interviewed scores of people close to Gram Parsons while researching Hickory Wind

Timing is a curious thing. When I first started this series in May of 2008, the fact that Jim Morrison’s father had served as the commander of the ships involved in the Gulf of Tonkin ‘incident’ had gone virtually unreported for some four-and-a-half decades. Readers were shocked – shocked, I tell you! – when I began this series by trotting out that revelation. Some even accused me of making it up, or of somehow twisting the facts.

But as fate would have it, as December of 2008 rolled around, the mainstream media was suddenly awash with reports of the unusual Morrison family connection. On December 8, for example, the Los Angeles Times carried a report on Admiral George Stephen Morrison, described therein as “a retired Navy rear admiral and the father of the late rock icon Jim Morrison.” According to the Times report, “Morrison had a long career that included serving as operations officer aboard the aircraft carrier Midway and commanding the fleet during the 1964 Gulf of Tonkin incident, which led to an escalation of American involvement in Vietnam.” (emphasis added)

THEY SAID YOU COULD PINPOINT EXACTLY WHEN THE LAUREL CANYON CULTURE HIT ITS ZENITH/BEGAN TO PARLEY DOWN TO THE MASSES

AT JANE FONDA'S 4TH OF JULY PARTY ON MALIBU BEACH 1965

IT WAS FOR HER DAD, HENRY FONDA'S BIRTHDAY. THE BYRDS PLAYED

TONS OF STUDIO HEADS WERE ON HAND AND THE CLASH OF GENERATIONS OF THE GUESTS OF THE FONDAS WAS EVIDENT, ESPECIALLY THE FRIENDS OF PETER FONDA, WHO WERE AMONG THE L.C. ELITE, FRATERNIZIG W/THE UPPER CRUST OF OLD HOLLYWOOD

WHAT THE MOVIEMAKERS QUICKLY REALIZED WAS THAT 48 PERCENT OF THE MOVIEGOING POPULACE/SOUNDTRACK BUYERS WERE UNDER THE AGE OF 30. A SEISMIC SHIFT WAS UNDERWAY AS THE BOOMERS CAME OF AGE. THE GRADUATE AND BONNIE AND CLYDE SOON FOLLOWED.

SOME EXCELLENT RESEARCH BY THE AUTHORS ON NAILING IT DOWN

Just plugged this thread in another GLP thread. Glad to see it is still active. Bumping for genuine historic value.

Lost interest, eh?

"Don't know where you're goin'

'cause I don't know where you been"

JUST IN TIME FOR THE LATEST UPDATE,SOMEONE POST A LINK TO IT

GEORGE LUCAS WAS A CAMERAMAN AT ALTAMONT IN GIMME SHELTER!?!

LAUREL CANYON REDUX, HERE WE COME! GET READY TO BUST THE MEME WIDE OPEN SOON!

"...Crosby, Stills and I were at my house in Hawaii for the past 10 days, rehearsing a new record Graham Nash says from his New York hotel. Tentatively titled, Laurel Canyon. It will be the first CSN effort composed entirely of cover versions. The concept came from their label, Columbia..."

"...they want that vocal sound, which is obviously reminiscent of the 60's, explains Nash, "on songs that we wish that we had written. So far, its going very well..."

FOUND IT, RE: "LAUREL CANYON" BY CSN, CURRENT ISSUE ON THE NEWSTAND!

OKAY THIS WAS INTERESTING

TONIGHT'S GUEST ON COAST WITH IAN WAS THIS AUTHOR

[link to www.legacyofsecrecy.com]

GRANTED THIS BELONGS ON SOME OTHER EXCELLENT THREAD HERE ABOUT JFK/OSWALD ET AL

BUT THERE WAS ONE EXCELLENT BRIEF DISCUSSION THAT TIED IT IN WITH SOUTHERN CALI AND THE SAME TIME PERIOD AS ABOVE.

JAMES EARL RAY WAS AFFILIATED WITH THE CARLOS MARCELLO MOB, RUNNING HEROIN FROM MONTREAL, CANADA BACK AND FORTH TO MEMPHIS AND NEW ORLEANS PRIOR TO THE MLK ASSASSINATION.

THIS IS THE SAME FRENCH CONNECTION CARTEL OF THE FILM ETC. JAMES WAS IN QUEBEC THEN FOR "MONTREAL EXPO '67."

APPARENTLY THO, JUST ~BEFORE~ HE GOT UP TO HIS EYEBALLS IN THE TRAFFICKING NETWORK, HE WAS IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA FOR SOME PROGRAMMING TO TOP OFF HIS SKILLS. PRESUMABLY THE ABILITY TO PASS AS A NOMINAL FRENCH CANADIAN.

SO HE TOOK A HYPNOSIS "CLASS"

AND THIS AUTHOR HAS SOMEHOW TRACKED DOWN THAT SIRHAN SIRHAN WAS ALSO A STUDENT OF SAID SCHOOL FOR HYPNOSIS IN THE AREA

GOOD GOD

HAVE WE REACHED THE NEXUS OF THE UNIFIED FIELD THEORY YET?

IS THERE *ANYONE* WHO DID NOT CROSS PATHS WITH L.A. BACK THEN?

APPARENTLY RAY'S HEROIN CONNECTIONS WITH THE MOB AND THIS HYPNOSIS W/SIRHAN IS THE MISSING LINK TO TIE IT BACK IN WITH RFK/JFK PER THE AUTHOR.

THEN YOU LOOK AT MANSON/KOREA/LSD EXPERIMENTATION W/VETS AND ACTIVE DUTY .MIL THEN, AS WELL AS THEIR ADULT CHILDREN AND YOU JUST GET HEARTSICK AT WHAT WENT ON THEN.

PUNNETT SAID THE BOOK IS EXCELLENT. COULD NOT PUT IT DOWN.

SOMEONE GET AHOLD OF THIS AND CHECK THE INDEX FOR THE NAME OF THE 'HYPNOSIS SCHOOL' THEY BOTH ATTENDED CIRCA 66/67.

WHO RAN IT. WHO OWNED IT.

This just gets better all the time. Thanks LADIES OF THE CANYON.

great stuff!! check out owsley's background!!!


LOL!!

ah WTH.

4 a great read.

7-11

Military brats inadvertently learning nuclear processes, whispered throughout their 1950s homes, would eventually be drawn to where atomic bomb films were bing made at Hollywood's Top Secret Studios at Lookout Mountain in Laurel Canyon. From there they would eventually start to blab about their shared secrets and provide cold war intelligence for those seeking their collective demise. Mystery solved, nothing to see here, move along.

Reality is an onion.

Some are satisfied with the outermost layer.
