I grew up near an Air Force town in middle, Georgia Robins, AFB. My dad and many of my friends parents worked there. Some had to move to California in the late 50's because of their job to be near large defense contractors in California.
They came back telling stories about California that were almost unbelievable to us back in Perry, Ga. Then after a 3 year stint in the army returning home in 1967 I was amazed at the music coming from California and England. Both seemed to dominate the rock music scene in the 60's and 70's. Nothing else like it in the county.
For those of you who lived in California it would be interesting to me to hear some of your stories from those times. California was so far ahead the rest of the US in almost everything. They were almost like a different mythical country.
We know it is not the same, now, but I don't wish to open up that debate I only want to know from some members who remember CA back then..
