About this listen
On this groovy edition of Road Gang Radio, host Jimmy Mac welcomes music historian and author Scott Shea for a far-out conversation about the iconic Summer of Love, the game-changing Monterey Pop Festival, and the cultural explosion that shaped a generation. Drawing from his book All the Leaves Are Brown: How the Mamas & the Papas Came Together and Broke Apart, Scott revisits Papa John Phillips’ ambitious vision for Monterey, the unforgettable performances, behind-the-scenes drama, and the festival’s lasting musical legacy.
The conversation also pays tribute to two recently lost legends—Sly Stone and Brian Wilson—two California-born musical visionaries whose groundbreaking contributions continue to ripple through the soundscape of American music. With stories, reflections, and deep insights, Scott guides us through the high notes and heartbreaks of a golden era that still echoes today.
Tune in for a dose of nostalgia, history, and the sounds that defined a generation. Peace, love, and rock & roll.
