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

“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

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.

Abraham Lincoln wrote his Gettysburg Address without ever hearing either of these songs.

Maybe he was drunk.

The only version of “Mountain” that Southerners (at least this one) would/will listen to.

33mins, 42 seconds Live- The Allman Brothers- from Eat a Peach. Sweet duo guitar, sweet slide and.... melody.

The Crash Test Dummies of the 90s struck me as heirs to that creative vein about 15 years ago.

The song from that era going through my head the last couple of years is “Time” by the Chambers Brothers.

People forget that 1967 didn't just bring us Sergeant Pepper

Some of my favorites from that year:
