50 years ago this was the start of an amazing few weeks. Beginning with the released on July 14th, 1969 of the movie 'Easy Rider'.

The soundtrack album would go on to spend 33 weeks in the top 10 of the LP chart in the UK during 1970. Songs and tracks by Steppenwolf, The Band, Jimi Hendrix, The Electric Prunes, Bob Dylan, Roger McGuinn and this all time favourite of mine by The Byrds 'Wasn't Born To Follow'. Here's that sequence from the movie: 

Turn up the phasers to 11, on that middle section. Track's only 2 minutes of magic, but you can always play it twice. I usually do !
