Los Angeles in 1974 exerted more influence over popular culture than any other city in America. The "New Wave" that revitalized Hollywood, the smooth Southern California sound that ruled the album charts and radio airwaves, the torrent of groundbreaking comedies that brought new sophistication and provocation to television's prime time – all these emerged from Los Angeles. It was an "extraordinarily creative period," remembered Michael Ovitz, a Los Angeles native who became the entertainment industry's most powerful agent during the 1980s. For Los Angeles, those twelve glittering months represented magic hour.

Chris Hillman's musical life from Byrds to Burritos and more

(Lori Stoll via AP)LOS ANGELES – Tom Petty once described him as one of rock music's most well-kept secrets, and Chris Hillman is fine with that. It was never about getting into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, either, although Hillman, McGuinn and their fellow Byrds are there, too.

After moving on to another bluegrass ensemble he returned to Los Angeles, where he'd pick up the bass guitar this time and join the Byrds. He recently took part in a “car concert” at the Ventura County Fairgrounds but says that just wasn't the same.

Why millennials may shrug at the stock market's troubles

As a personal finance reporter at CNBC, when the stock market drops, as it has from the coronavirus outbreak, I write stories reminding our readers to remain focused on their long-term goals and to resist panic. Fewer than a third of millennials, often considered those born between 1981 and 1996, are saving in a 401(k) retirement plan, according to Charles Schwab's 2019 Modern Wealth Survey. "I don't even know why or how a stock market crash would affect me waking up, going to work and living my life," she said. Millennials earn 20% less than baby boomers did at a similar age, according to a recent report, "The Emerging Millennial Wealth Gap," from nonprofit, nonpartisan think tank New America. All of this means fewer young people are able to put their money into the stock market.

Peter Yarrow on the Promise of Folk Music - Then and Now

When Bob Dylan went electric, the place went crazy with a feeling of betrayal, Yarrow says. [Folk music] was an act of faith, and act of acknowledgement of a certain kind of belief system.
