The Tambourine Man is a literary historical novel about a young man who comes to Haight-Ashbury in 1966 with the intent of "passing through", and he stays to watch a band called Tambourine Dream make its way to the Monterey Pop Festival.
"The band is fiction. Almost nothing else is."
-Keith deSales Davis
Nine months in Haight-Ashbury, from living rooms and bars to the stage at Monterey.
