Summary

Giftable 50th anniversary commemorative with never-before-seen images and original interviews. Hear from performers and attendees in their own voices! Featuring Janis Joplin, Jimi Hendrix, and The Grateful Dead, as well as unsung audience members and folks behind the scenes. This compendium remembers all the people who made the three days of peace and music an impossible success.

The world today feels far removed from the one in which Woodstock was possible, where half a million strangers congregated peacefully for three days. 


Longtime music writer Daniel Bukszpan offers insights on how the festival is still making an impact on pop culture, while candid interviews, set lists, and beautiful photographs relive the beautiful chaos and once-in-a-lifetime performances at Yasgur's farm.

With images by renowned photographers, including Amalie R. Rothschild and Elliott Landy, including the cover photo of Janis Joplin.

Author Biography

Daniel Bukszpan is freelance writer and the author of The Encyclopedia of Heavy Metal and The Encyclopedia of New Wave. He lives in Brooklyn, NY.
