What led to the DEMISE of Laurel Canyon’s Freewheeling Society of Sex and Rock n Roll? Imagine living in a dreamy place where you look out your window to see Jim Morrison riding his bike past the Eucalyptus trees as you hear Joni Mitchell’s guitar echoing through the hills while ducks swim in the pond in your backyard? David Crosby and Frank Zappa breeze by you at the local country store before you stop by your neighbor’s house to enjoy a game of Ping Pong and a swim because it’s always a fun time with The Monkees. It may sound like a dream but it’s actually just another day in Laurel Canyon, 1967.

But then change creeps in when disturbing events take place and the laid back feeling dissolves into fear and hopelessness. So what happened to Laurel Canyon’s famously thriving community?

This is a ton of work! Your support is greatly appreciated!!
