My City By The Bay

During the Summer of Love era in San Francisco there were many fantastic bands performing all over the city to include, Jefferson Airplane, The Mamas and the Papas, Janis Joplin and Scott McKenzie just to name a few.  There were also many songs recorded about San Francisco.  One of my favorites is If You’re Going To San Francisco by Scott McKenzie.  I found this YouTube video which captures him singing this song along with many local bands in the audience like Janis and Mama Cass etc…  Now mind you I was only a baby not really - I was about 11 during the Summer of Love when this video was taken.  I have to admit that had I been a little older during that era I’m sure I would have been one of the hippies around during that time.  Enjoy!
