SUMMONER'S TALES...
"In the '60's pop music was much more influential than it is now; it seemed to be more important to society as a whole. If you asked a man on the street in '69 or '68, 'What's the number one song this week?, most of them would know it. Ask a man on the street now, nobody cares. I don't."
