An entertaining and nostalgic look at the English Underground from 1961 to 1971, and the attempts made, amidst the haze of the hippie dream, to establish an alternative culture.
Jonothan Green offers a time trip from lat-fifties CND, beatniks and bop to the threshold of our own decade's designer revolutionaries and style warriors. . . . . Green has collected 101 quintessential sixties groovers and lovingly teased out their memories, all of them refreshingly self-critical and remarkably sharpened by hindsight. . .
