West La College

Can anyone recommend a college is West LA?

I’m moving out next fall – looking at good schools to get my BA in Psychology. Anyone have any suggestions, recommendations, good experiences??? thanks
Hah yes – Los Angeles. I also meant “in West LA”. At this rate I won’t be getting into any schools

UCLA is the best and most famous in that area. I’m assuming you mean West Los Angeles and not West Louisiana.

Loyola Marymount is also there. Not sure if Pepperdine qualifies as “West LA”.

Road House $3.95 One of those movies that helped usher out the era of action films that had plots that made any sense (and also helped reverse the direction of Patrick Swayze’s career arc), Road House concerns a handsome, existential bouncer in a rinky-dink honky-tonk who owns both a degree in philosophy and a Mercedes. And that’s perhaps the most believable aspect of the whole movie. Swayze stars as Dalton, “the …

Buster Keaton Collection (The Cameraman / Spite Marriage / Free & Easy) $24.98 The Buster Keaton Collection presents three of the first films (one, The Cameraman, a near masterpiece) Keaton made for MGM beginning in 1928, an arrangement that gradually ushered the great comic actor and director into the sound era but ultimately deprived him of creative control. The Cameraman, considered by many to be Keaton’s last important silent work, is an unusual story about a tintype por…

Canned Heat concert at Newark State College on 05 Dec 70 $6.98 Canned Heat embraced the dawn of the West Coast counterculture in 1966 and hitched a ride on the rock ‘n’ roller coaster for over four decades. Although only drummer Fito de la Parra remains from the late 1960s lineup (and he was not the original drummer), the band is one of the few acts to have played both Monterey Pop Festival and Woodstock, as well as the 20th anniversary Woodstock concert held in Bethel, NY in 1989. The group had made a name for itself in the rock press in the ’60s when they frequented many legendary venues such the Fillmore West in San Francisco, and the Whiskey A Go Go in Los Angeles. This historic recording is from a show the band did at Newark State College, in Union, NJ, in December, 1970. Canned Heat was just getting back on their feet and starting to overcome the massive shock they experienced when founding member, singer and harmonica player, Al Wilson died suddenly. Wilson died on September 3, 1970, just fifteen days before the passing of Jimi Hendrix and thirty days prior to the untimely death of Janis Joplin. He was replaced by Joel Scott Hill, another singer, guitarist and harmonica player, who had been friends with the band. The tour essentially featured a completely rebuilt Canned Heat. Hite and de la Parra had reenlisted Vestine, who had been replaced just prior to the ‘69 Woodstock show with Harvey Mandel, who, in May 1970, left with Heat bassist Larry Taylor to join John Mayall’s Bluesbreakers, thus allowing for Vestine’s return. Also on board were bassist Antonio De la Barrada, who had played in bands with de la Parra when both were still in their native country of Mexico, and of course, Joel Scott Hill, the recent replacement for Al Wilson. Wilson (with vocalist Bob Hite) had formed the group in 1966 out of their dual mutual love for old American blues recordings. The two had started a record collecting club, with, among others, Henry Vestine, also an aspiring musician. Out of that hobby club emerged the first version of t

Ken Kesey’s Bus Fine Art Print from San Francisco State College on 31 Oct 66: 11×14 C-Print Signed $400 A few have ridden, more have seen and every real and in-spirit hippie alive remembers Ken Kesey’s magic bus, that ‘39 International Harvester heap of hand-painted psychedelia. Outfitted for trips both on-the-road and of-the-mind, Kesey and his Merry Pranksters set out cross-country in 1964 for points FURTHUR, introducing culture shock to the young and willing. Piloted by Beat voice Neal Cassaday, this symbol of an era gained fame in the lyrics of The Grateful Dead’s “The Other One”; “The bus came by and I got on.” The original bus lies rotting in an Oregon dale, although there are plans afoot but not yet in effect to resurrect it, and the second was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1997. Kesey died in 2001, God rest his Merry [Prankster] soul. FURTHUR brought Kesey and his Merry Pranksters to town for an “Acid Test.” Ken Kesey had an interesting idea about outer space: it’s all in your head. An early volunteer turned poster boy for LSD experimentation, Kesey came up with a plan to introduce the willing to the joys of tripping, the Acid Test, and held the first party near his home in La Honda. Early Tests were night-time wilderness events with Day-Glo painted trees, loud music, the Merry Pranksters and random ingestion of unidentified substances. The party moved to public venues and finally to dance concert halls like the Fillmore West where enlightenment, experimentation and the emergency room were close friends. Kesey’s magic bus carried enough raw materials and revelers to make an Acid Test worthwhile and was a familiar psychedelic sight at these gateway events.
