Not since three days in August 1969 has there been a concert of such magnitude that it defined a generation. Against the backdrop of a nation in conflict over sexual politics, civil rights, and the Vietnam war, 500,000 people converged on a small dairy farm in upstate New York to witness the concert of the century — ‘Woodstock’. What they experienced sparked a cultural revolution that changed the country forever.
‘Woodstock’ won the 1970 Oscar for Best Documentary. Featured music headliners include: Joe Cocker, Santana, Jimmy Hendrix; Crosby, Stills, Nash and Young; Janice Joplin, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Grateful Dead, The Who, Richie Haven, Jefferson Airplane, The Band, Joan Baez; and Blood, Sweat and Tears among other amazing bands of the era.
