    Arthur Brown was a pioneer. Alice Cooper learned from him, and KISS perfected the formula and became a multimillion dollar hit.

    Fantastic to watch. It mirrors the attitudes, passion and rebellion, we experienced at the beginning of the 'Acid House/Rave' era in 88-89, which was labelled 'The Second Summer of Love'. The Hippy influence was in our clothing, music and how underground nightclubs and outdoor raves were decorated. The original Hippies, like shown in this video, helped shape our lives and the world. "All you need is love". 😉
