Isle of Wight,Monterrey,Woodstock... dont make gigs like that anymore


Yeah man thats a good way to sum up that era in music.Yup i know all about Monterey. I must admit one good thing about growing up hanging out with older guys aswell as hearing my old man and my uncles tunes.I had a good schooling in music:thumbsup:


Ahh man to catch an all too rare glimppse of Brian Jones on that Hendrix video man...:sad4::5sigh::icon_salut:

Bob Dylan performing at Isle of Wight... DO YOU GUYS KNOW HOW FUCKIN HARD AND RARE IT IS TO FIND BOD DYLAN ON YOUTUBE?? Its covers and covers but never Dylan! This was best i could find from his Isle of Wight gig in '69. Dylan was worshipped over here after his early gigs with The Band but see when he went away then came back without The Band and with his "new sound2,he got dogs abuse from UK crowds. I can understand when he went electric,i didnt dig that phase either.
