Discovering music: The Woodstock Festival
If you ignore the legend of Woodstock, you will have missed a lot.
In 1969, a group of young people in their twenties organised a music festival in Bethel, New York in a field rented from Max Yasgur.
They expected 200,000 attendees, but bands like the Grateful Dead, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin and Joe Cocker, among others, doubled that number to an estimated 500,000.
The first day was sold out and traffic was chaotic.
However, the drugs flowed and peace reigned, despite the massive attendance.
That festival, which went down in history, marked a before and after, becoming the most emblematic and peaceful festival in music.
Woodstock was much more than a concert: it was a social and generational phenomenon that transcended as the festival par excellence.
