生活在60年代中期的舊金山是非常獨(dú)特的體驗(yàn)
But no explanation, no mix of words or musical memories

can touch that sense of knowing that you were there and alive in that corner of time in the world. Whatever it meant

You can strike sparks anywhere

There was a fantastic universal sense that whatever we were doing was right, that we were winning
