2-part MGM+ docuseries about the famous LA mountain neighborhood where Joni Mitchell, Frank Zappa, the Byrds, Love, Crosby/Stills/Nash/Young, the Monkees, the Turtles and many more found cheap housing and creative community in the mid-late 60s. With Mama Cass's generosity and openness as a central ingredient, Lauren Canyon - above the smog, but also only a few minutes' drive from the clubs on Sunset Strip - produced an amazing amount of psychedelic folk and rock music.
