WOODSTOCK CHRONICLES: 3 Days of Peace and Music - Hardcover

WOODSTOCK CHRONICLES listet alle Bands und Interpreten auf, mit Nennung der gespielten Stück und kurzer Bandgeschichte im Kontext mit Woodstock, darunter Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, Richie Havens, Creedence Clearwater, The Who, Joe Cocker etc. etc. WOODSTOCK CHRONICLES does exactly what the title says. It chronicles the events, the bans and the incidents that made up that momentous August weekend in the summer of 69. But it does much more than just look at the sixty-something hours during which the Woodstock Festival played out, the three days of peace and love. It traces the history of the bands that performed, how they came to be there, and what effect Woodstock had on their careers. 500'000 people turned up - such a large crowd had never, ever, attended a concert or music event.
