Ryan Walsh has excavated 1968 Boston to uncover the origins of Van Morrison's Astral Weeks. A prominent role in the account goes to the Mel Lyman "family" and its compound, which although it had little to do with Morrison, was a centerpiece of the city's alternative and radical milieu. Walsh does a fine job of placing the reader into the social, political and artistic world of the time.
