Woodstock 3 days of peace & music
(
Visual
)
10 editions published between 1987 and 2009 in English and held by 867 libraries worldwide For three days in the summer of 1969, a rock concert was held on an upstate New York farm, and 400,000 people attended -- far more than were anticipated, far more than paid, far more than could be fed or sheltered or cared for after injuries or drug overdoses. It rained, there was mud, all traffic in and out was gridlocked, and the music continued, night and day. "Woodstock Nation" existed for three days and was absorbed into American myth. As depicted in this film, in roughly chronological order, the elusive memory of that nation is cemented into a pungent social documentary. Few documentaries have captured a time and place more completely--in the full flower of its moment, youth, and hope--than this one. It is also one of the finest musical documentaries ever made--if not the best--utilizing adventurous camera work, daring editing, frame mirroring, freeze frames, blackouts, and multi-angle perspectives widening the 1.33:1 image to 2.20:1 to capture flamboyant, riveting, career-defining performances, within an amazing chronicle of how the musicians interact onstage as audience members react to the musicians' performances.

Cherokee mist : the lost writings
by Jimi Hendrix
(
Book
)
17 editions published between 1993 and 1995 in English and held by 409 libraries worldwide ""Hey Joe"..."Purple Haze"..."Foxy Lady"..."The Wind Cries Mary"...Jimi Hendrix's music is so distinctive, so remarkable, so soul-stirring that now, twenty years after his death, he still sells three to four million albums a year. Right-handed in life but left-handed on guitar, Jimi remains to this day a mystery, with his entire recorded work completed in a mere five years, ending with his tragic death in 1970. Many have tried to answer the questions: Who was the real Jimi? Who was the man behind the Cherokee-Irish-African-American enigma? Like no Hendrix book before it, Cherokee Mist: The Lost Writings offers many clues to understanding the real man behind the public figure." "While everyone remembers him as one of the gods of guitar, Jimi was also a prolific and remarkable writer. This collection of his unpublished writings - poetry, songs, a movie outline, and notes - along with previously unpublished photographs and drawings, offers new insights into the legendary guitarist and his music. With much of the book printed in facsimile to reproduce exactly Jimi's original handwriting, including the complete lyrics to the legendary, never-released album Black Gold, Cherokee Mist: The Lost Writings is a remarkable trove that fully shows the creative mind of a great artist. In producing this labor of love, Hendrix archivist Bill Nitopi, a consultant to the Hard Rock Cafes and contributor to Guitar World magazine, has created the one Jimi Hendrix book that every fan must own."--BOOK JACKET.
