Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:

1966!. Around the time of their San Francisco visit they were moving from the rock and roll they'd started with to the west-coast rock, complete with the drugs and "uniform" that went with it!. For reference, "Revolver" was released that summer, and "Sgt!. Pepper" the next spring!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Their manager had them change their look so that they can look more professional in the beginning, and then change it to be more to that time era!. I hope that answers your questionWww@QuestionHome@Com

When they really started exploring with drugs and exploring other religions (not saying one had anything to do with another)!. It was a period where lots of bands were doing it!.!.!. The "Hippy" era and then when the it is said "When Rock and Roll just became Rock" lots of bands like the beatles and the stones went ditched the dashikis and hashish and got back to their rootsWww@QuestionHome@Com
