CONTENTS PROLOGUE: 'Well, he had long hair, hadn't he?' CHAPTER ONE: 'Christ the Saviour wore long hair/And many more good men I do declare' CHAPTER TWO: 'Certainly the "quiff" or lock of hair which some lads wear on their forehead, is a sure sign of silliness' CHAPTER THREE: '"Queer" was the insult of choice' CHAPTER FOUR: 'Man, that's what I want to do!' CHAPTER FIVE: 'Hair today, gone tomorrow' CHAPTER SIX: 'Who are you lookin' at, pal!?' CHAPTER SEVEN: In person - direct from the nuthouse!!! CHAPTER EIGHT: 'If you look at early pictures of us, we had nothing' CHAPTER NINE: Would you let your sister go with a Rolling Stone? CHAPTER TEN: 'The man-in-the-street couldn't imagine any of the Pretty Things even being married - except to each other' CHAPTER ELEVEN: 'Peter's pride' CHAPTER TWELVE: 'The Chicago stockyards smell good and clean by comparison' CHAPTER THIRTEEN: 'In his day, we would all have been sent to concentration camps' CHAPTER FOURTEEN: 'Long hair isn't "with-it" anymore' CHAPTER FIFTEEN: 'Because you have reached exalted heights in your profession, it does not mean that you can behave in this manner' CHAPTER SIXTEEN: 'He looks more like a bleeding lavatory brush' CHAPTER SEVENTEEN: 'It was the end of the innocence, the end of the fun' CHAPTER EIGHTEEN: 'Cop kill a creep! Pow! Pow! Pow!' CHAPTER NINETEEN: 'Will any girl spare you a second glance when you're twenty-five, unemployed - and bald?' CHAPTER TWENTY: 'The same bastards are in control. The same people are running everything.' CHAPTER TWENTY-ONE: 'Suffering from mental illness is nothing to be ashamed of, dear.' EPILOGUE: 'My hair is a statement and always will be, even when I no longer have any.' INDEX
Synopsis
The social revolution of the Swinging Sixties led to a renaissance of unchecked hair growth, and long hair, especially on men, was worn as a political or countercultural symbol of protest and as an expression of masculinity. No-one who was affected by one of a turbulent decade's loudest controversies - or anyone who ever wondered what all the fuss was about - will fail to be interested in this personal account of when the 'us and them' divide between youth and elders was most profound.
