"If you're going to San Francisco/be sure to wear some flowers in your hair. "
With that one couplet, John Phillips defined an era and a city, but it was singer Scott McKenzie's voice that immortalized the song and became a one hit wonder whose sole hit remains a staple on the playlists of nearly every oldies station. McKenzie has died at the age of 73, joining the long list of celebrities who have passed this year. Will the city of San Francisco lower their flags as a gesture of respect and mourn his passing? I think they should.
