In August of 1969, a dairy farm in the state of New York hosted a pivotal moment in the history of pop music. Taking place only two years after the “Summer of Love” and one year after the tumultuous events of 1968, the Woodstock Music and Art Fair put an exclamation point on the transformational decade of the 1960s. Joni Mitchell did not attend Woodstock, but her song of the same name captures an opposition inherent to the turbulent and divisive era. “We are stardust . . . caught in the devil’s bargain,” Mitchell sings, “and we’ve got to get ourselves back to the garden.” In order to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Woodstock, Berklee College of Music hosted a week-long celebration that included conversations with luminaries from the era. Participants included Woodstock co-founder, Michael Lang; emcee, stage and lighting designer, Chip Monck; audio engineer, Bill Hanley; photographers Henry Diltz and Elliott Landy; public relations officer, Rona Elliot; and Gerardo Velez, drummer for Jimi Hendrix. Woodstock Then and Now commemorates the discussion between these Woodstock luminaries, making available the transcripts of this historic event.

The Woodstock Music & Art Fair was held in the United States in 1969 and attracted an audience of more than 400,000. Scheduled for August 15-17 on a dairy farm in the Catskill Mountains of southern New York State, northwest of New York City, it ran over to Monday, August 18. Billed as ";An Aquarian Exposition: 3 Days of Peace & Music";, it was held at Max Yasgur's 600-acre dairy farm near the hamlet of White Lake in the town of Bethel. Located in Sullivan County, Bethel is 43 miles (70 km) southwest of the town of Woodstock in adjoining Ulster County. During the rain-swept weekend, 32 acts performed outdoors including such headliners as Grateful Dead; The Who; Joe Cocker; The Band; Crosby, Stills, Nash & Young; and Jimi Hendrix. It is widely regarded as a pivotal moment in popular music history, as well as the definitive nexus for the larger counterculture generation, and has spawned numerous rock festivals ever since. Anniversary celebrations large and small are taking place throughout the country and around the world - along with new films, music, books and socially responsible products - confirming what we all feel: the spirit of Woodstock is alive and flourishing.
