Nineteen Sixty Nine, OK?

Four festivals. Four icons. Four incredible performances.

Imagine it's 1969 and you got to experience at least one of these in person. 

Imagine if you got to experience all four *

Mindblowing.

1) Love City (Live @ The Woodstock Festival, Bethel, New York, 16th August 1969): Sly & The Family Stone

2) Sunshine Of Your Love (Live @ Montreux Jazz Festival, Montreaux, Switzerland, 22nd June 1969) (Cover of Cream): Ella Fitzgerald

3) Tutti Frutti (Live @ The Toronto Peace Festival, Toronto, Canada, 13th September 1969): Little Richard

4) Four Women (Live @ Harlem Cultural Festival, New York, 17th August 1969): Nina Simone

 

 

 

* It's roughly a two hour drive from Bethel to Harlem, so getting from Sly & The Family Stone's set at Woodstock to catch Nina Simone the following day was doable in theory...provided you weren't so stoned that you slept through your alarm clock and were fit to drive in the first place!
