Laurel Canyon, Military Families, Cliff Richard
Dave McGowan’s research into Laurel Canyon highlights the military intelligence backgrounds of 1960s rock icons, such as Jim Morrison’s father being an Admiral. In the UK, singer Cliff Richard is scrutinized for his ties to mobsters and his father's employment at Thorn EMI, a company involved in defense weapons systems. These patterns suggest that many prominent musicians are "military brats" placed in the industry.
