Here's one for us all especially in these times Very special to me as I have known some of the people in the room that day. Paul Williams, editor of Crawdaddy Magazine, Dr. Timothy Leary, and more. Gives me chills to watch this from the year 1969 when I was just 16 years old. Paul Williams wrote the intro for our book "Hippies From A to Z."
