Peace, Love, and Crime

Rebellion, revolution, and rock and roll defined the '60s. As music moved from country to folk protest songs, rock became the voice of the "turn on, tune in, drop out," generation. Peace, love, and harmony were the goals. Meditation, mysticism, and psychedelic drugs were the way to enlightenment. Peace, love, and crime were often the result, sometimes humorous, sometimes deadly. And the music played on. As Harold says in The Big Chill, "There is no other music, not in my house."
