A few weeks ago I told you about the fabulous gifts I received for my 18th b'day right? (: Well, one of them was a book called 'Pop Sixties' which is filled with Magnum photos, the world's preeminent photography agency. I instantly loved it, almost all my heroes are in it (Janis Joplin, Bob Dylan, Aretha Franklin, etc.) and it really shows the sixties ambiance. God, I wished I was there to experience that time. But it's a given fact I wasn't, so all we can do now is looking at these pictures and imagining how amazing it was.
