Haight Ashbury 1966

A collection of every available piece of concert footage, news reports, 8/16mm film and other documentary clips of the Haight Ashbury during the year of its ascent, 1966. Many who lived through the era pinpoint this period as the "real" Summer of Love, before the rest of the world found out what was happening (although because of that, there's not nearly as much footage for this year than for '67).
