Gee, and I thought it was just about taking psychotropic drugs.

Not much changing.

One of my favorite Donovan songs. "Way down... below the ocean... where I wanna be, she may be"

“Before I had studied Chan (Zen) for thirty years, I saw mountains as mountains, and rivers as rivers. When I arrived at a more intimate knowledge, I came to the point where I saw that mountains are not mountains, and rivers are not rivers. But now that I have got its very substance I am at rest. For it's just that I see mountains once again as mountains, and rivers once again as rivers.”

—Qingyuan Weixin as translated by D.T. Suzuki

Hurdy Gurdy Man is pretty great too.

But, Wears Her Love Like Heaven is just fantastic.

Rivers come from Mountains. Nothing like out-wash alluvial fans.

Never can hear that song quite the same way again after watching Goodfellas.

Wow dude, like I don’t think you even ‘experienced’ the Sixties man.
You don’t seem to ‘get’ sex OR drugs! And that’s really far out man.

Donovan, the guy with the brocade coat
Used to sing to you about Atlantis
You loved it, you were so involved then
That's back in the days when you used to smoke a banana
You would scrape the stuff off the middle
You would bake it
You would smoke it
You even thought you was getting ripped from it
No problem
Ah Atlantis, they could really get down there...

In the other corner, we have a group called The Byrds. They had Mr. Tamborine, written by Bob Dylan, The 23rd Psalm; or To Everything there is a Season.

I'm not aware of the Byrds doing a song based on Psalm 23. If they did, please refresh my memory. (Memory is the second thing to fail with old age. I can't remember what the first is.)

Turn! Turn! Turn!(To everything there is a season) is based on Ecclesiastes 3. Pete Seeger, communist folk singer, put these words of the Bible to music, and the Byrds covered it and had a huge hit with it.
