The 1967 Sunset Strip exploded with rock culture as giant hand-painted billboards became temporary monuments to music's coming of age--visual celebrations beginning with The Doors that captured the revolutionary spirit of an era.

The Sunset Strip, circa 1967. Buffalo Springfield called it right: There's something happening here...what it is ain't exactly clear. What was happening then is now absolutely clear. Rock 'n' roll and the kids who lived it were coming of age--right there on The Strip. And, as if to define the era, a few independent minds in the music industry posted giant, temporary monuments that said it all. Billboards. Bigger than life. Hand-painted homages to rock. The Doors led the way. It seemed that billboards would chronicle rock forever.

In Rock 'n' Roll Billboards of the Sunset Strip, author/photographer Robert Landau showcases these signs of the time, a time when rock was the most important music ever recorded, when youth, politics, and art merged to turn counterculture into mainstream culture.
