I had already read the Keith Moon "Magic Bus" story, but I was missing the other two parts. The London club scene in the late 60's was equivalent to the jazz clubs in Harlem during the be-bop era of the late 40's. I really think what took 50 years for jazz to come full circle, rock music did it in just over 20 years.
