"Dance is active meditation.
When we dance, we go beyond thought, beyond mind and beyond our individuality to become one in the divine ecstasy of the union with the cosmic spirit.
This is the essence of the trance dance experience."
— Goa Gil
The important difference, of course, is that Fay actually wrote his songs.
Case of the point, “Don't Let My Marigolds Die”

It's somehow in the same vein as the great Marianne Faithfull reimagining songs from her debut records in her later years, now with a full understanding of what was behind all the words.

BTW, it turns out that starting from the 2010s, he released several brand-new studio albums. On the last one, released exactly 50 years after his self-titled debut, was this marvel of a reimagining of his decades-old songs.

RIP Bill Fay
I’m ashamed to admit I hadn’t thought about him in a long time.
And, as it always is, the reason to remember inevitably presents itself, one way or another.
On this particular photo he reminds me late poet, songwriter and friend Vassia Borodin, which makes me actually cry.

Aquarius: Dreamers, Tree-Huggers and Radical Ratbags (2024)
A revelatory chronicle of the 1973 Aquarius Festival in Nimbin, which changed Australia forever.
Aquarius is an enthralling documentary directed by Wendy Champagne, chronicling the transformative Nimbin Aquarius Festival of 1973. This festival left an indelible mark on participants and established Nimbin as a global countercultural hub.
Around 10,000 individuals, including students, artists, and activists, converged on Nimbin for a 10-day festival. They lived, created, and explored new social paradigms together, despite resistance from locals and interference from law enforcement. The festival ignited enduring activism that continues to influence First Nations rights, women's issues, and environmental movements in Australia.
Champagne’s documentary is crafted from 95% archival footage, much newly unearthed. She collaborated with groups including Bush Video Archive, Aquarius Filmmakers Collective, Anthony Lupi Archive, and the University of NSW Architecture Students Project, to assemble a compelling narrative. Interviews with festival participants and organisers provide vivid, first-hand accounts.
Aquarius is a poignant celebration of collective action. It’s a must-see for anyone interested in transformative grassroots movements and the vibrant history of counterculture.
Notice for the “Death of Hippie” which was a mock funeral that was meant to signal the end of the Summer of Love. Organized by the Diggers to convince the media to stop covering the Haight. Attendees burned underground newspapers and hippie clothing. They carried a coffin down Haight Street and the crowd stopped for a “kneel-in” at the corner of Haight and Ashbury.
It was 57 years ago on October 6th, 1967.
