Within those years Ramses became a favourite of the Dutch theater, Established Shaffy Chantant and became a national hero, but those years brought him some miserable time too with drank and drugs. The years that Amsterdam is changing rapidly, the upswing of Flower Power, Free sex, drugs and a changing morale after those brave years in the fifties.
