‘Should’ve Been There’

Barrie Wentzell’s long awaited book, ‘Should’ve Been There’, is being published by Rufus Publications.

So jump on board & take a ‘magical, musical & visual journey through 1965-1975 with me, through my stories & photographs of artists & musicians that created the age of ‘Love & Peace & Harmony’.

Come along with us & enjoy this journey through the past & hope it may fill you with a warm glow of nostalgia & delight. If you were there then hopefully it will bring back some happy memories & reflections of those days. If you weren’t there, then I hope this book will offer you a sense of the good feeling of the fun, freedom & creativity we shared back then.

The days of Love, Peace & harmony may seem to be long gone & alien in this present age we are living in, but let’s not give up or in to the ‘Blue Meanies.’ Let’s carry on with good cheer & as Neil Young reminds us, ‘Keep On Rocking In The Free World’.
