Publisher's Synopsis
1967... the Summer of Love. Hippies, Love-Ins, Flower Power, and Peace Signs. But it wasn't all Incense and Peppermints or Strawberry Fields Forever. Strife and conflict reigned side by side, both at home (the Civil Rights Movement) and abroad (the Vietnam War). Yet in the midst of it all, resonating from a Top 40 radio station in Los Angeles, came a voice... a voice of assurance, humor, and at times just the kind of satire and social commentary needed to pilot the strait of America during a dynamic and tumultuous period in our history.
From Ariel Archer (author of related works such as Theresa & Julia and From Owl-hambra to San Bird-nardino) comes The Rockin' Raven's Best of '67, a collection of airchecks from Julia Bancroft's morning show during that infamous summer. It's the Rockin' Raven at her best... all the savvy, all the sass, and a whole lotta groovy! Tune in, turn on, and share the magic in this piece of pop culture and "rock-u-mentary" nostalgia... brought to you from KBRD's studios in beautiful downtown Bird-bank.
