1966 Was the Coolest Year
Last night I started reading (I can't just scan most things) the very entertaining volume Hal Lifson's 1966! A Personal View of The Coolest Year in Pop Culture History by (obviously) Hal Lifson. I have to agree with Hal that this was a very key year. While Hal was turned six that year, I turned nine. He was living near Los Angeles and I was in Pheonix. He was watching Hobo Kelly in the afternoon and I was laughing with Wallace and Ladmo. But our shared sense of Pop Culture is still surprisingly strong (though unlike Hal, I got Star Trek). And you have to admire (don't you?) someone that can get Adam West and Nancy Sinatra to write forwards for their own personal ramblings. I may have to add this one to my library.
