Publisher's Synopsis
2019 marks the golden anniversary of the mass musical gatherings that saw the hippie generation at their 1969 zenith. Two events stand out, staged within days of each other that magical August: in the United States, there was Woodstock, and in the UK the Isle of Wight Festival of Music. Bob Dylan was headline act at the Isle of Wight, in front of close to 200,000 adoring fans. Here, Bill Bradshaw celebrates the events of that summer 50 years on.
