  5. This morning I nipped over to The #Oxfordshire Museum in #Woodstock and was treated to a sneak preview of the Open Art Competition #Exhibition (starts tomorrow) in which my #painting "Best of British" is is being shown. It's already been "highly commended" by the judges! 😀

  9. Sure, we might’ve put a few extra miles on the station pickup truck back in ‘69, but it was great fun covering the Woodstock Music and Art Fair in Bethel, New York.

    Our sound engineer was last seen naked, screaming and running into the crowd after taking some of the brown acid (It seemed kinda weak to me.) but everything else went fine.

  10. "If I Were a Carpenter" is a folk song written by #TimHardin in the 1960s, and re-recorded with commercial success by various artists including #BobbyDarin, #TheFourTops and #JohnnyCash. Hardin's own recording of the piece appeared on his 1967 album #TimHardin2. It was one of two songs from that release (the other being "Misty Roses") performed by Hardin at #Woodstock in 1969. The song, believed by some to be about male romantic insecurity.

  13. WOW! This is spectacular. I am a monster Hendrix fan and always wished for more audio/video of the #JimiHendrix set at #Woodstock. This is his WHOLE set without interruption as far as I can tell. 1 hr 29 min of Hendrix playing. It sounds great (mono) and the video (filmed onstage) includes some great shots Hendrix. The article at the link tells how the bootleg came to be.

    All we’ve had are what was in the official documentary Woodstock movie and maybe a few other clips. mastodon.themetaldog.net/@TheM

  17. 🎸🌻 ONE MILLON DREAMS UNDER ONE SKY — WOODSTOCK BEGINS

    August 12

    On this day in 1969, nearly 500,000 young people descended on Max Yasgur's dairy farm in Bethel, New York, for three days that would redefine a generation. What began as a ticketed festival of 50,000 swelled into a peaceful, rain-soaked miracle of music and love — Jimi Hendrix closing with a muddy "The Star-Spangled Banner," Janis Joplin wailing under the stars, and a generation proving that harmony was possible. The Woodstock Music & Art Fair became the defining symbol of the counterculture, a moment when peace, music, and youth collided in a field of mud and dreams.

  18. Michael Shrieve’s Drum Solo at Woodstock 1969 🌸🥁🪻

    Bit of drumming action today with a famous drum solo from the Woodstock 1969 music festival. Drummer and percussionist Michael Shrieve was only 20 back on August 16th 1969 when he performed.

    He played a set with American rock band Sanata and his drum solo on Soul Sacrifice has gone down in legend (as some awesome shizz). Get ready to bop.

    Shrieve’s Epic Soul Sacrifice Drum Solo

    Above is the build up, with the drum solo starting at the 2:50 mark. Have a listen! Hell of a good groove.

    There are a bunch of notable things here. Starting with just how young Michael Shrieve was, although he’d joined Santana when he was 19 after spending his teenage years playing on-and-off for all sorts of R&B groups. Even at 20, his playing quality is world class.

    Keep in mind, he did this in front of 500,000 people and you get an idea of how nerve-wracking the whole thing should have been for someone so young (we did one gig back in our drumming days in mid-2006, in a room of about 100 people, and that was more than enough).

    Here’s the drum solo bit isolated.

    It’s also notable he’s using traditional grip (the left hand stick angled horizontally across his hand), which few contemporary rock drummers did by the late ’60s.

    This was from the band’s debut album, which hadn’t launched yet. In fact, it launched just six days after the band’s performance at Woodstock. Their performance at the gig helped make the album a big success.

    Shrieve’s solo is there in the album recording, but when you see top class drummers playing live that’s when you realise just how good they are. And it really brought in attention to Shrieve, even if he didn’t go on to become a household name (although he was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1999).

    But his performance has gone down in legend as one of the all time great drum solos. But he actually prefers his live effort from Tanglewood of Massachusetts in 1970.

    We’ve done an extensive history of drum solos previously to document how the drumming world has changed over the years. Shrieve’s style merged the ’60s rock drumming revolution with elements of jazz and soul.

    Woodstock ’69 had a massive amount of world class drumming talent at the festival. Including The Who’s resident genius Keith Moon, Levon Helm of The Band, and Jimi Hendrix’s mighty Mitch Mitchell.

    To be up against that lot, yet leave the festival as the main talking point, is very impressive indeed.

    Shrieve is now 77 and still works in drumming. In July 2026 he also had his book Invisible Rhythms published (A Guide to Staying Curious and Creative for the Long Game). As the synopsis says:

    “[This] is a guide for anyone who feels ‘wired different’—the musicians, entrepreneurs, artists, and creators who hear frequencies others miss. It’s about recognizing the signal before you can explain it. Protecting your curiosity when success tries to turn it into a cage.”

    We can groove to that. Far out, man.

  19. Happy Birthday, Woodstock! Grab a free cupcake to celebrate the popular water shuttle's second birthday on July 31, at 11:45 a.m. It’s a double celebration because the City announced that Woodstock will continue sailing across the estuary through at least June 2028!

  20. I didn't really have much going on on this Saturday morning so I randomly decided to put on my VHS copy of Woodstock: The Director's Cut on my little CRT TV. It is much too long, so I am probably not going to watch the whole thing in one sitting, but it is one way to pass the time on a gloomy day
