A month before (around July 20, 1969) I saw Jimi Hendrix appear on the Tonight Show as Flip Wilson sat in for Johnny. Don't really recall what he played but he brought the house down. This was a precursor of his Woodstock appearance. In retrospect, the sound system for the bands was pretty weak in light of today' technology. But there was lots of heart and passion. The performances I recall from the movie documentary and LPs were CS&N, Joe Cocker, Santana, and Ten Years After.

For your enjoyment, a clip from 40 years ago today. Joe Cocker sings "What would you do if I sang out of tune" to listen to while you watch. <object classid="clsid:d27cdb6e-ae6d-11cf-96b8-444553540000" width="425" height="344" codebase="http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0"><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true" /><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always" /><param name="src" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/GWpjLzKV1ZI&hl=en&fs=1&" /><param name="allowfullscreen" value="true" /><embed type="application/x-shockwave-flash" width="425" height="344" src="http://www.youtube.com/v/GWpjLzKV1ZI&hl=en&fs=1&" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always"></embed></object> Joe Hauckes on "This weekend is the anniversary!" http://babyboomersus.net/topic/this-weekend-is-the-anniversary#post-11 Fri, 14 Aug 2009 17:13:24 +0000 Joe Hauckes 11@http://babyboomersus.net/ This weekend (8/15 to 8/18) is the 40th Anniersary of Woodstock!
