R.I.P. Scott McKenzie

I was sad to learn that Scott McKenzie passed away two days ago. The voice behind the Summer of Love anthem "San Francisco (Be Sure To Wear Some Flowers In Your Hair)" which was written by John Phillips of The Mamas And The Papas got to be 73 years old and will forever be remembered for this song that was written specifically to promote the Monterey Pop Festival. McKenzie did, however, have a follow-up hit with another Phillips-penned song, the beautiful "Like An Old Time Movie". Here they both are, and may the golden-voiced man forever rest in peace.
