[pic=121_1249547290.jpg] Van 15 tot 17 augustus 1969 begaven meer dan 500.000 jongeren uit de ganse wereld zich naar Woodstock in de staat New York. Deze bijeenkomst vond plaats op één van de meest mythische festivals ooit en viert de hippiecultuur. Om deze verjaardag te vieren presenteert RHINO met trots WOODSTOCK 40, een set met 6 CD’s. Voor de allerleerste keer het concert integraal op CD met 77 songs waarvan 38 nooit eerder uitgegeven ! Nu verkrijgbaar in volledig remasterde versie inclusief een boekje van 80 pagina’s.Meer info en track list lees je hier : LOS ANGELES – Much has been written about the significance of the Woodstock Music & Art Fair as a cultural event. Ironically, what has been least examined up to now is the very thing that brought nearly half a million together in 1969: the music itself. As the historic festival marks its 40-year anniversary, Rhino presents WOODSTOCK 40 a 77-song, six-CD collection that features the most comprehensive collection ever available of artists that performed at the original festival, sequenced in chronological order of performance, featuring 38 previously unreleased recordings, including the Grateful Dead, The Who, Tim Hardin, Jefferson Airplane, Country Joe & The Fish, and others. WOODSTOCK 40 will be available August 18 at all retail outlets, including www.rhino.com, for a suggested list price of $79.98.To assemble the most comprehensive document of the myth-steeped weekend, the boxed set’s co-producer Andy Zax pored over every inch of multitrack tape in search of the strongest parts of each of the 33 sets. “The way we approached all of the material was as if it was a cinéma verité documentary—the raw record of the event,” Zax says. In addition to the music, the set offers considerable amount of ancillary material sprinkled throughout the discs—stage announcements, lysergic babble, the sounds of rain, a cameo appearance by Abbie Hoffman, and the graciousness of Max Yasgur’s address to the crowd, heard for the first time in its entirety. Another significant byproduct of WOODSTOCK 40 is that, by virtue of its size and rigorously chronological sequence, it gets closer to a sense of the performances as they occurred in real time than any previous compilation. For the first time, the complete and accurate set lists will be available in the boxed set’s booklet. Some Woodstock aficionados will be taken aback by the actual order of the performances; it differs from both various written accounts and from Michael Wadleigh’s film Woodstock, which takes certain liberties with chronology in order to maintain its narrative flow. In addition to the boxed set, Rhino will also reissue the long out-of-print MUSIC FROM THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK AND MORE: WOODSTOCK and WOODSTOCK TWO on June 2, simultaneously with Warner Home Video’s reissue of the documentary film Woodstock. Originally released in 1970 as a triple-LP, MUSIC FROM THE ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK AND MORE: WOODSTOCK topped Billboard’s Pop album chart for four weeks, and was a Top 20 R&B album as well. Following the chart-topping, multiplatinum success of the original soundtrack, 1971’s WOODSTOCK TWO served up even more peace and music. Originally released as a double-LP, it expands the listening experience with 16 additional performances. Each set was remastered from the original analog soundboard tapes from the historic 1969 concert, and the release features rare photos and new liner notes. Both double-CD sets will be available June 2 for a suggested list price of $24.98 each.[b]WOODSTOCK 40 Track Listing[/b]DISC 11. “Handsome Johnny” — Richie Havens2. “Freedom (Motherless Child)” — Richie Havens3. “Choppity Choppity”— John Morris4. “Look Out” — Sweetwater5. “Two Worlds”—Sweetwater *6. “Jennifer” — Bert Sommer *7. “And When It’s Over”— Bert Sommer *8. “Smile” — Bert Sommer *9. “There Goes Marilyn!”— John Morris10. “Hang On To A Dream” — Tim Hardin *11. “Simple Song Of Freedom” — Tim Hardin *12. “Flat Blue Acid”— John Morris13. “Raga Puriya-Dhanashri/Gat In Sawarital” — Ravi Shankar *14. “Momma Momma” — Melanie * 15. “Beautiful People” — Melanie16. “Birthday Of The Sun” — Melanie17. “Coming Into Los Angeles” — Arlo Guthrie ***18. “Wheel Of Fortune” — Arlo Guthrie *19. “Every Hand In The Land” — Arlo Guthrie *20. “All You Funny People”— John MorrisDISC 21. “Joe Hill”— Joan Baez2. “Sweet Sir Galahad”— Joan Baez3. “Hickory Wind” — Joan Baez * 4. “Drug Store Truck Drivin’ Man” — Joan Baez w/Jeffrey Shurtleff5. “Bring Scully His Asthma Pills”— John Morris6. “Insulin” & Quill Intro— John Morris7. “They Live The Life” — Quill *8. “That’s How I Eat”— Quill *9. “I Understand Your Wife Is Having A Baby”— Chip Monck10. “Donovan’s Reef” — Country Joe McDonald *11. “The ‘Fish’ Cheer”/”I-Feel-Like-I'm-Fixin’-To-Die Rag” — Country Joe McDonald12. “Persuasion” — Santana13. “Soul Sacrifice” — Santana14. “How Have You Been”— John B.
