His father's family started a wholesale grocery business on Commercial Street in Boston which inspired his early understanding of peoples, culture and businesses. He was raised in Newton and had a privileged education among its large elite Jewish-Christian community. He became a 'Born-again' Christian at the tender age of eight under the compelling influence of an itinerant 'completed' Jewish evangelist. He found in Christ the hope of everything he could have ever have dreamed for, peace with God and hope for an eternal future of glory with Him.

Quotes by Philip Alajajian (?)

“Despite the promises of utopian hedonism, many youth and middle-aged adults quickly enticed by these did not escape from their addictions easily, if at all. And, to the shock of their fans, the lives of Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, Jim Morrison and numerous other acid trippin' rock musicians also ended quickly like the closing blues beats from one of their most popular songs. Even Max Yasgur himself died just 19 months after the Woodstock Festival of a heart attack at the age of 53.”
