I ran into this series a couple of days ago and it is a fascinating and well written series. It is both interesting from a modern history perspective, and from the point of view of how our society is manipulated and controlled. Just to set it up. For those not already in the know Laurel Canyon, in LA, has long been a home to movie stars, writers, and other famous figures. In the 60's it became THE address for many Rock Stars, as well as Charles Manson. It has been the scene of death, debauchery, drug use, and creativity.
For a number of years now I have been hearing, and reading, about how our pop music and surrounding culture has been a tool of control and transformation of the society. I'll leave it to you the curious to decide for yourself. The series is an interesting read just for the historical events and rock and roll history and trivia as well as the inner workings. It works just as an interesting read, but carries deeper implications as to things we have always assumed to be true that are not. It is also quite spooky, in more than one way, when you start sifting through it and evaluating for yourself what the information implies. One word of caution, the series is addictive and I found myself reading through most of it in two evenings.

"Theres something happening here
What it is aint exactly clear"
"Join me now, if you have the time, as we take a stroll down memory lane to a time nearly four-and-a-half decades ago a time when America last had uniformed ground troops fighting a sustained and bloody battle to impose, uhmm, democracy on a sovereign nation.
It is the first week of August, 1964, and U.S. warships under the command of U.S. Navy Admiral George Stephen Morrison have allegedly come under attack while patrolling Vietnams Tonkin Gulf. This event, subsequently dubbed the Tonkin Gulf Incident, will result in the immediate passing by the U.S. Congress of the obviously pre-drafted Tonkin Gulf Resolution, which will, in turn, quickly lead to Americas deep immersion into the bloody Vietnam quagmire. Before it is over, well over fifty thousand American bodies along with literally millions of Southeast Asian bodies will litter the battlefields of Vietnam, Laos and Cambodia. ..."
