David Geffen, Himself:
If you're going to San Francisco, be sure to wear flowers in your hair - it was like that, you know. You walked through the streets of San Francisco and there were people, you know, smoking pot and having little daisies in their hair and hanging out and the Fillmore was packed and, you know, it was a change. People were against the war and against segregation and there was a lot of political feeling in the world and a lot of it was centered in the change that was happening in San Francisco and that's the caldron in which Tower Records was born.
