1968 - Part 6
<p>My wife and I moved out to the Olympic Peninsula in 2002. Not long after we arrived we met Flora May and Bob Bradley. That next summer Bob introduced me to the Olympic Mountains. We didn't talk a lot when we were walking, but grand conversations would often happen when we had reached a place where we were looking back from where we came or from a viewpoint where a bigger world spread out before us. Mount Rainier to the South. Mount Baker to the North. The City of Seattle in between. </p><p>It is something to be sharing the story of all that happened in 1968 all these years later. To do it as The Brothers Four prepare to go sing in Thailand 55 years after I went for the first time with the group to sing in Japan.</p><p>Quite a view from here. </p><p>Here's <a href="https://markpearsonmusic.com/blog/part-of-a-bigger-story">a link to the Blogpost Part of a Bigger Story</a></p><p>Here's a <a href="https://markpearsonmusic.com/video/try-to-remember-0">link to the Song with Story, Try to Remember</a></p>

1968 - Part 5
<p>By the end of the Summer of 1968 my dreams of becoming a doctor had been replaced by thoughts of pursuing a music career or continuing to do social work in New York City. After talking with my dad I decided to return to the University of Washington for my senior year. I had no idea at the time that I before the year was out I would be dropping out of college to become a member of The Brothers Four. (I entered UW as a member of Class of 1969. I would return years later and get my degree as a member of the Class of 2019. On my YouTube channel you can watch the <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2bE1RL37J64&list=PLN2P7tdMONIingqYCXo_HLLQ2lOh40DFk">Graduation Ceremony</a> I created. This Podcast ends at the Homecoming Concert in 1968 with me standing next to Simon and Garfunkel's manager, Mort Lewis. He was also the manager for The Brothers Four. Little did I know that a few month later I would in his office with the two of us laughing about how we first "met." </p><p>Here's a <a href="https://markpearsonmusic.com/blog/faith-hope-love-and-family">link to the Blogpost Faith, Hope, Love and Famil</a>y</p><p>Here is a link to the latest Song with Story, a Brothers Four recording from 1969 of "<a href="https://markpearsonmusic.com/video/the-strangest-dream">Last Night I Had the Strangest Dream."</a></p>

1968 - Part 4
<p>The Summer of 1968 opened up new worlds to me and for me. My three college friends and I represented the University of Washington in a national talent show. We got to the semi-finals where we competed against the Carpenters who were representing Long Beach State in their first exposure to a national audience. For the first time in my life I could begin to imagine music as a possible career path. </p><p>Doing social work on the Lower East Side in New York gave me access to a world that I could only imagine. </p><p>At the same time the country was barreling toward a future untested, uncertain, unknown. It appears today we are living with the backlash of all the changes that were being birthed in the heat of that tumultuous summer. </p><p>For me the heat meant warmth and possibility. </p><p>Here is a link to <a href="https://markpearsonmusic.com/blog/when-all-we-can-do-is-beourselves">the latest Blog Post</a>.</p><p>Here's a link to <a href="https://markpearsonmusic.com/video/a-graduation">the latest Song with Story. This one is mostly Story</a>. </p>
