The 60s people remember now and the 60s in the 60s are two very
different times! Comedy, spoken word and jazz albums were big sellers,
many "legendary" rock groups from the time were unknown to most, and
the social attitudes and mores were actually very different except for
a hard core in-group. The Vietnam war had widespread support, no one
would have advocated legal abortion, and dope smokers were subhuman
vermin to Middle Amerika, which was most everyone then. It was
actually in the 70s the big sea change hit and the ideas that were
underground and clandestine became widespread and overt everywhere
except the very buckle of the Bible belt.

Nancy Reagan and her Just Say no were a big rollback, but the country
was still more liberal after Reagan than in the LBJ era.
