"When this book first pubbed in 2009, PW's review called it a
'coffee-table tribute' offering 'a balanced, moving, and
chronological pictorial of each of the 31 acts' who performed over
the course of the festival. Also of interest to avid Woodstock
fans, PW noted, are firsthand accounts from attendees, crew, farm
workers, and musicians including David Crosby, who said, 'It looked
like an encampment of a Macedonian army on a Greek hill, crossed
with the biggest batch of gypsies you've ever seen.' --Publishers
Weekly PRAISE FOR WOODSTOCK:
"A terrifically handsome photo book." --New York Daily News
"Provides candid offstage shots of performers accompanied by
snippets of their observations...Interesting tidbits and reminders
abound." --Booklist
