Can not wait to get this in the mail. The love of literature and it resembles a huge box. Rating: 5 / 5

I look at Woodstock on my old VHS tape I recorded years ago. This is not the best quality, but I love it. There is a beauty on the way to Woodstock, a feeling which can not be recreated. It is sad to think people buy the DVD will be hearing “fixed” the music of Woodstock. It will take away from the sensation of how it was. Please leave it. It stands on its own as a masterpiece. Some things should not be changed. Rating: 2 / 5

I expected a music DVD, not a history of Woodstock. This was advertised as having Creedence Clearwater Revival, they were not on this movie. Rating: 1 / 5

The first thing to note is one of the greatest ironies of the 60s: that Sha Na Na — the favorite whipping boys of 70′s bashers/60 ‘s nostalgic (for all intents and purpouse a single ), you know, one of the villians Eddie Vedder intended to invoke in his sentinous Rant “Against The 70′s” — actually appeared in the festival o ‘peace, love n flowers (and just to push the middle finger to all chauavinists are baby boomers, has a pretty decent performance Damm) “The second thing is something that commiepinko pro-feminist dude just gotta ask if this would be the height of comittment the cons-culture to peace, love, social justice, yaddayaddayadda — So where are the women? Answer — by Joan Baez and Janis Joplin, the only woman here have shown, quite revealing in a section of the B-side of this 2-DVD side, AS “The Body Beautiful.” As a feminist writer, said shortly after Altamont: “Women at Woodstock, we have a service industry.” That being said, there actually had a few performances at the height of all the “Woodstock Nation” hype. First there was the return of a Joan Baez song on labor union organizer Joe Hill (whose work activism class most probably went over the heads of 90% of the upper middle class citizens WN), the Who’s “See Me, Feel Me” and cover of “Summertime Blues,” Arlo Guthrie’s “Coming Into Los Angeles” (which now, after looked MIAMI VICE, I do understand what “key” meant in context — yup, this is a drug – probably pot — smuggeler), Country Joe The Fish & “Feel Like I’m Fixin ‘to Die Rag, “a song that has gained new realavence George Dubya Shrub so-called” war against terrorism “(subistiute” Afghanistan “for” Vietnam “and you’ll see what I mean). In Beyond that, however, all history proves it — may indeed we must return to the garden, but (as Rapestock 99 so clearly demonstrated) Woodstock did not cut. Rating: 3 / 5
