Your daily dose of Hippie culture |
Hippie artifact of the dayCalifornia
"California" from Blue by Joni Mitchell, 1971 on youtube. Joni is a painter. (I am a painter, I live in a box of paints) She happened to also have a natural talent for music. We listened to this album over and over. Great dulcimer draws you in, and then you hear some intelligent, witty, thoughtful and personal storytelling. Moving, and fun. It's only in the last few years that I learned I'll even kiss the Sunset pig referred to a cop on the Sunset Strip. I always figured it was a cultural or literary reference that was over my head. And I met a redneck on a Grecian isle refers to Carey, from another great song on this album. |
Genuine Hippie Sez:Free College Big Dem McAuliffe on free college: "There is no way the Democratic Party should support paying for children of wealthy parents to go to school." You are afraid some of the 1% will choose free college at a state school rather than go to the Ivies with their friends? Stupid, stoned, or disingenuous? |
