Woodstock Back To the Garden 50th Anniversary Collection 3CD

28 juni 2019

This summer will be the 50th anniversary of Woodstock, the defining event of a generation and one of the
most iconic moments in popular music history.
Rhino will release two collections on June 28. WOODSTOCK – BACK TO THE GARDEN – 50th ANNIVERSARY EXPERIENCE
features 162 tracks across 10 CDs and is the first Woodstock collection to feature live recordings of every performer at the
festival. WOODSTOCK 50 – BACK TO THE GARDEN: THE ANNIVERSARY COLLECTION includes 42 tracks and will be available
as a both 3-CD and 5-LP sets.
Between August 15-18, 1969, more than 400,000 people converged on Max Yasgur’s 600-acre dairy farm in upstate New York
for Woodstock. Thirty-two acts performed including some of the most popular and influential musicians of the era such as
Joan Baez, The Band, Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin,
Jefferson Airplane, Santana, Sly and the Family Stone, and The Who.
But the Woodstock audio isn’t solely about music: it’s also about the people who were there. Fortunately, the microphones
were left on throughout the festival, capturing everything from stagehands discussing lunch and audience members shouting
requests for baseball scores, to Max Yasgur’s uplifting address to the audience gathered on his farm.
You can also hear the cavalcade of stage announcements made by stage manager John Morris and lighting director Chip
Monck, who were drafted as emcees for the festival because no one hired one. On all of these new anniversary collections,
you can hear them between songs making announcements about everything from lost keys to warnings about “flat blue acid.”
