Jimi Hendrix - Star Spangled Banner ( Woodstock 1969)

This was legendary event in American history. Woodstock Music & Arts Fair took place upon Max Yasgur’s 600-acre farm in the town of Bethel, NY in August 1969. Over 186,000 tickets has been sold, though eventually it became a free event as hordes of music fans rendered the fences and ticket barriers virtually useless by the end of the first day.
Hendrix clocked in at about 9 a.m. on Monday morning, playing for over two hours to the less than 30,000 fans who still remained on site. It was in the now-famous set where the guitarist performed his most famous solo with an instrumental take on “The Star-Spangled Banner”, channeling the atmosphere of beauty and love amid anger and aggression that defined the culturally tumultuous era.
