The time in the commune the late 60s early 70s | |||
In 1969 I moved into a Hippy commune "Peace at will" about 15 miles from the city of from Plymouth were I spent my time painting Surrealistic works from my own fantasy and LSD Trips. One of the most enjoyable moments was the Weekly visit to the "Van Dyke" club were a lot of Top groups such as Deep Purple, Family and the Edger Broughten Band, started their way in the Music business. I can remember sitting in the backroom behind the stage, it was a Wednesday evening and Deep Purple war the act for this evening, I helped them to get the stuff on to the stage. Afterwards we sat in the sat in the room and smoked a couple of joints together. |
||||
We had an old Camper in which we drove all over the country visiting open air concerts such as the Isle of white in 69 and 70, Bath, Glastonbury and many more. |
||||
I was still working with different artists and working on the restoration from private houses. | ||||
In the early 70s the commune split up and we all went our own different way's. | ||||
Through all of these years, the music was and still is in it's many styles and directions a welcome companion . | ||||
My taste in music has not changed I listen to Classic as well as Old or New, Pop or Rock and even Techno or Trance. | ||||
