London greatest city on the planet - before "everything". Grew up in Soho, Chelsea, King's Road. Hampstead, Oxford Street, Carnaby Street, George Best, Stamford Bridge, Wembley, Wimbledon. And what really brought it all together was the MUSIC. Manfred Mann, The Stones, Marianne Faithful, The Small Faces, Steve Marriot, The Kinks, Denmark Street and the guitar shops. Could ramble on. But that was the Time Of Our Lives. Hyde Park, Green Park, the Palace, Piccadilly Circus, Lillywhites, the pubs and the pub crawls in Covent Garden, Leicester Sq, Chinatown. Sun seemed to shine everyday. Where is my time machine. Tears in my eyes.

There was a lot of really good music and the 60s, even more so in the 70s, and in the 80s 90s and early 2000s we're killing it with rock music. Evan country music was good once we got from the late 90s onto about 2012.

Pretty Flamingo is a pop classic and it ended up being the 12th best seller of 1966 in the UK. Why can't we have songs like this 2019? Who needs those numpties from the X Factor?

Thanks to Clinton/Lewinsky and the endless political debates that gave rise to Fox, CNN, MSCBS, we all believe the other 'guy' is our enemy. Be celebrate a 'degenerate' like Bruce/Caitlin Jenner and feel outrage that a 'thieving criminal' was shot after robbing a store owned by an 'immigrant' in Ferguson. Housewife 'franchise', homo's marrrying, rights for homeless, aka hobo's or bums, etc etc etc etc. America has lost 'critical thought' it was destroyed in 'classrooms' being lead by the lower 1/3 intelligent of every college graduating class. We expect the police to wear camera's, something I approve, but don't put camera systems in our class rooms so parents can evaluate the 'people' who are indoctrinated their children.

I agree, I was only 2 in 1966, but remember the late 60's and 70's; people seemed more respectful then, less aggressiveness in society and not full of all the shit we have now with ethnic minorities and do-gooders when there was true free speech in Britain and the BBC was not biased!

I'm not a Brit patriot nor historian of fashion, but clearly, during the sixties and seventies, there was a revolution in expression. Don't think it's ever repeated itself so significantly after then.. Mary Quant was a genius and we'll not see expressions illustrated by this fine and elegant lady ever again. Her designs were, art. What's this got to do with this music? Look, and think.
