Table Of ContentContents: Introduction The Dream of Rock History How I Create a Festival Interview with Michael Lang Youth Hippies, Yippies, and Freaks Music Three Days of Great Rock Witnesses The Performers' Words Interviews with: Carlos Santana, Joe Cocker, Grace Slick, Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez, Bob Weir, Roger Daltrey, and Graham Nash
SynopsisExclusive interviews and photos tell the story of three days in Bethel, New York, that changed the history of rock music in Woodstock: The 1969 Rock and Roll Revolution., Woodstock: The 1969 Rock and Roll Revolution celebrates the fascinating story of how the music event came to be and the people that made it part of history. How can you explain the Woodstock Festival, 50 years after the event, to those who were not fortunate enough to take part? The concert that changed the history of rock music and an entire generation cannot be reduced to the photos. Half a million young people come to Bethel, New York, from every corner of the world to experience three days of music together. This event, now legendary, resounds with the psychedelic notes of Santana and the sublime guitar of Pete Townshend of The Who, the rich voices of Joan Baez and Janis Joplin , and the many other artists who appeared one after another on the stage. Yet, it was perhaps the guitar of Jimi Hendrix as he played his version of the American national anthem, "The Star-Spangled Banner," as Woodstock screamed its impetuous, revolutionary protest against the war in Vietnam , that became the symbol of an epochal dissent. In Woodstock , journalist and music critic Ernesto Assante presents those unforgettable days through exclusive interviews and photos he has recorded throughout his entire career. Michael Lang, Carlos Santana, Joe Cocker, Grace Slick, Arlo Guthrie, Joan Baez, Bob Weir, Roger Daltrey, Graham Nash, will all take us to Bethel to re-live and give thanks to the extraordinary figures that made Woodstock a legend that still echoes today .
