WOODSTOCK FAQ: ALL THAT'S LEFT TO KNOW ABOUT THE FABELED GARDENA celebration of the legendary music festival-and artists-thatsparked a cultural movement.Thomas Edward Harkins's Woodstock FAQ: All That's Left to Know About the FabledGarden cuts through the lofty rhetoric and mythology surrounding the legendaryfestival. Rather than waxing philosophical about whether or not the WoodstockMusic & Art Fair was the defining moment of the 1960s, as so many have donebefore, Harkins places the focus on the music, solo artists, and bands whoperformed.Thirty-two acts took to the stage in Bethel, New York, that weekend, and thebook gives the performers and the music their due consideration. Who were they?Where did they come from? What songs did they play? What happened to themafterward? How did the festival impact their careers? Those are the questionsexplored in these pages. Further, the book attempts to restore the chronological arcof the festival, from concept to concert to its aftermath and enduring legacy.Drawing on his experiences as a media scholar, Harkins ponders how thealbum releases and Michael Wadleigh's Academy Award-winning 1970 film,Woodstock, helped shape the narrative of the festival and, in the bargain, distortpeople's memories of the actual event.
