The time seems so pregnant with promise. This is the exact moment, historically speaking, when pop culture went from B&W and shades of gray to vivid color … it's easy to see how this film would have brought tens of thousands of young people into London seeking to find these forward-thinking cultural movers and shakers to become part of 'the happening' themselves."[5] References1. ^1 2 3 {{cite book|last=Winn|first=John C.|year=2009|title=That Magic Feeling: The Beatles' Recorded Legacy, Volume Two, 1966–1970|publisher=Three Rivers Press|location=New York, NY|isbn=978-0-307-45239-9|p=83}} {{UK underground}}2. ^{{cite book|first=Tim|last=Riley|authorlink=Tim Riley (music critic)|year=2011|title=Lennon: The Man, the Myth, the Music – The Definitive Life|publisher=Random House|location=London|isbn=978-0-7535-4020-6|ref=harv|p=339}} 3. ^1 2 {{cite book|first=Julian|last=Palacios|title=Syd Barrett & Pink Floyd: Dark Globe|url=https://books.google.com.au/books?id=wN-fDAAAQBAJ&pg=PT280&lpg=PT280&dq=%22It's+So+Far+Out+It's+Straight+Down%22&source=bl&ots=vjZD8ZPOFy&sig=fK1EDfJb4JQwuJICwvRz0mr6BRg&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwj3teivxtrbAhXCUZQKHdsrAdI4FBDoAQguMAI#v=onepage&q=%22It's%20So%20Far%20Out%20It's%20Straight%20Down%22&f=false |publisher=Plexus|location=Medford, NJ|year=2015|isbn=978-0-859658829|p=}} 4. ^{{cite web|last=Halpin|first=Michael|date=10 June 2017|title=The Beatles, London's Counter-culture & Sgt.
