Welcome to our 3rd and final dedicated to Monterey Pop. This one provides soundboard recordings from the afternoon and evening sessions from June 18, 1967, 55 years ago this very day. The afternoon featured Ravi Shankar, who of course, taught George Harrison how to play sitar and was a spiritual influence on the Beatles' guitarist.  The early highlights of the evening session was US debut of The Who,  who followed a set by the Buffalo Springfield. For The Who, who had been recommended for the festival by advisory board member Paul McCartney, it was the moment in which they captured the attention of fans and critics in the states. For the Springfield, it was the usual chaos, as Neil Young missed the show due to bickering with Stephen Stills, forcing the band to have David Crosby sit in. Of course, that was only the start of the fireworks that transpired on that night. Though on their home turf, The Grateful Dead had the unenviable position of having to play right after The Who's US debut and right before the man who would become a rock god at Monterey.  Jimi was also at the festival on the recommendation of  McCartney, who had seen Hendrix play in London. On this night, the whole world got to see what McCartney already knew. The image of Hendrix pouring lighter fluid on his guitar and burning it, is one of the most memorable in rock history. And his playing was unlike anything anyone had ever seen or heard. It was quite unfair that The Mamas and The Papas, who had been leading lights in organizing Monterey Pop, had to follow Jimi on stage. No one could have.

Here's our 2nd of 3 posts dedicated to the Monterey Pop festival. This one features soundboard recordings from the afternoon and evening sessions session from Saturday, June 17,  1967, 55 years ago this very day. This afternoon session featured a host of San Francisco bands, such as Steve Miller, Country Joe & The Fish, and Quicksilver Messenger Service. But it was Janis Joplin who stole the show with her breathtaking performance that day. For the evening session, The Byrds and The Jefferson Airplane were the 2 biggest acts on the bill, but it was Otis Redding, singing to the "love crowd" in his first major appearance in front of a predominately white audience, who turned in a perfromance for the ages. Tragically, Otis died just 6 month's later, at the age of 26.

It was the first major rock festival that attracted national attention (the Magic Mountain festival took place a week earlier to far less fanfare - go here for more on that), hosting over 200,000 people over 3 days, with 90,000 fans in attendance at its peak on Sunday night. It was the place where Jimi Hendrix and The Who made their U.S. debuts. It marked the first major public appearances by Janis Joplin and Otis Redding. It embodied the counter culture spirit of San Francisco, with almost all the acts performing for free. It was the first multi-racial and multi-genre musical event. And it will ever be synonymous with the Summer of Love. It was officially, The Monterey International Pop Music Festival, better know simply as Monterey Pop. As part of this month's tribute to 1967, we're going to help you re-live that event over the next 3 days, capturing each of the festival's unique sessions. All of these are soundboard recordings! We start with this post of the Friday Evening session, featuring Simon & Garfunkel and The Animals, from June 16, 1967, 55 years ago today. 

A couple of quick notes: This is an expnaded version of the show, with more songs thna the one I posted for the 50th anniversary. It also includes a bonus disc of interviews and commercials. The tracks are number from 1 to 151 across the 12 CDs that make up this set, so today wil end at track #21 and tomorrow will pick up at track #22, whie post #2 will end at track #65 with the next day picking up at track #86.  Enjoy the tunz.

Monterey Pop - 1967-06-18 - Sunday Sessions, Monterey CA (SBD)

Welcome to our 3rd and final dedicated to Monterey Pop. This one covers the afternoon and evening sessions from June 18, 1967, a half century ago this very day. The afternoon featured Ravi Shankar, who of course,  taught George Harrison how to play sitar and was a spiritual influence on the Beatles' guitarist.  The early highlights of the evening session was US debut of The Who,  who followed a set by the Buffalo Springfield. For The Who, who had been recommended for the festival by advisory board member Paul McCartney, it was the moment in which they captured the attention of fans and critics in the states. For the Springfield, it was the usual chaos, as Neil Young missed the show due to bickering with Stephen Stills, forcing the band to have David Crosby sit in.
