Laurel Canyon: The Inside Story of Rock-and-Roll's Legendary Neighborhood by Michael Walker

4.0

AKA the Evolution of the Canyon.
Basically a gossipy read about the musicians (and a few celebrities) who moved in and out of the Laurel Canyon area in the late 60s to early 80s, and how it transformed over the years into something different while still being the same. The whose who of the era, Joni Mitchell, Jim Morrison, Crosby, Stills, and Nash, John Mayall, the Mamas and the Papas, Carole King, the Eagles, Frank Zappa..., was here before they grew up and moved on. Enjoyable short read.
