Presenting our acclaimed anniversary special from five years ago

Five years ago today, on the 50th anniversary of the legendary Woodstock festival, KBOO aired a specially produced, four-hour program celebrating the signature countercultural event. Today, we are airing it again to observe the festival's 55th anniversary. It features rare recordings of performances, and performers, not represented on the original soundtrack or the famous documentary.
 

Also, you will hear KBOO exclusive interviews.with performers, including Jorma, Kaukonen of Jefferson Airplane, Country Joe McDonald, Stu Cook of Creedence Clearwater Revival, and Portland's own Roger North  and Dan Cole, of second-day opening act Quill. (You'll hear a fantastic Roger North drum solo from their set, too!)  Additionally, there are exclusive interviews with local folks who attended the festival, sharing their own firsthand reminiscences.

 

Thanks to the hosts of. Movin' On and Roots of Rock 'n' Roll for making their air time available to broadcast the complete special. We hope you enjoy the show, once again, or for the first time.
