Before there were Hippies, there were Beats or Beatniks. The connection is obvious. Steely Dan took their name from William Burroughs..so did the Soft Machine in which was a musician named Elton Dean...Reg Dwight became Elton John combining the names of two players in Bluesology, John Baldry and Elton Dean. Bob Dylan was inspired by the work of Allen Ginsberg.... and the beat goes on. You might be interested in a documentary film called The Beat Hotel. See link below.
