It was 1972, time of the cult-occultcommune
explosion. By day, the Source Family served organic cuisine to
John Lennon, Julie Christie, Frank Zappa
and others at the famed Source restaurant. By
night, in a mansion in the Hollywood Hills, they
explored the cosmos through the channeled wisdom
of their charismatic leader, Father Yod. Father was an
outlandish figure who had 14 "spiritual wives," drove a
Rolls-Royce, and fronted the rock band Ya Ho Wa 13, now
considered by collectors to be one of the most singular psychedelic
bands of all time.
