For his eighteenth birthday, Dusty Baker's parents gave him a great
present: Two tickets to the Monterey Pop Festival of June 1967, a
three-day event featuring more than thirty bands, and use of the
family station wagon for the weekend so young Dusty could drive
down from Sacramento to the Monterey Bay Area. He was another young
person, trying to take it all in, sleeping on the beach with his
buddy, having the time of his life soaking up the vibe and every
different musical style represented there. Baker's lifelong love of
music was set in motion, his wide-ranging, eclectic tastes,
everything from country to hip-hop. He also caught the Jimi Hendrix
Experience, who put on such a show that to this day Baker calls
Hendrix the most exciting performer he's ever seen. He went on to
years of friendship with musicians from B.B. King and John Lee
Hooker to Elvin Bishop. This account grabs a reader from page one
and never lets up.
