Product Description

Album Description

Digitally remastered two CD set, released to coincide with the 40th Anniversary of this historic concert. Originally released in 1970 as a triple LP, Music From The Original Soundtrack and More: Woodstock topped Billboard's pop album chart for four weeks, and was a Top 20 R&B album as well. As potent a musical capsule as ever existed, it captures the three-day, 1969 concert event that united close to half a million members of what came to be known as the "Woodstock Generation." Rhino's deluxe, 40th anniversary two CD reissue of this sprawling and era-defining sonic document - featuring CSN&Y, The Who, Santana, Jimi Hendrix, and many others - is remastered from the original analog soundboard tapes. It's the ideal way to take a trip back to Yasgur's farm and performances that shaped music and popular culture for years to come.

5.0 out of 5 stars I Remember, Aug 8 2010
This review is from: Woodstock: Music From The Original Soundtrack and More (Audio CD)
This is one of those classic albums that I always wanted, but for one reason or another never got around to acquiring. I am from that era, and fully understand that this event was one for the ages. As I listened to it now I realize that some listeners would think that some of the spoken words from the stage sound rather weak, but that only makes the album real. Those words from the stage make this genuine and sincere for those of us from that time. It is the way it was! The Music istself is priceless and I absolutely loved it, as I was taken back to that very special time of life. I was very pleased that the sound quality was so good.
I played this album so much in the first week that I know I must purchase the follow up album (Woodstock 2) to this one. Play it loud and enjoy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Just As You Remember It In 1970!, Jun 20 2009
By M. McKay - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Woodstock: Music From The Original Soundtrack and More (Audio CD)
When I saw that the Woodstock soundtrack was going to be remastered and reissued along with the new DVD set I was hoping that the previous edits of certain songs would be done away with finally. I mean this is CD technology we're talking about here, not the limited space of a vinyl record (don't get me wrong, I LOVE VINYL). I got my set just this last week and cued up Santana's "Soul Sacrifice." The edits remained. BUT, as I listened to the 2-CD set in it's entirety, sounding clear and better than ever I might add, my initial disappointment with the edits soon disappeared. The "Soundtrack and More" 3 LP/2 Cassette/2 CD set is an experience all it's own and as I listened, I got so caught up in the music that no "edit" ruined it for me one bit. I hear a box set is due out in August and maybe that set will be REMIXED and remastered so as to include the songs in their unedited form. But as for the ORIGINAL Woodstock Soundtrack, the same one you purchased in the summer of 1970, this is the best it's ever sounded. Thank you Rhino for leaving it the way it was.

EPILOGUE - A six-CD box set IS due out on August 18th! And yes, the tracks are remixed and remastered from the original 8-track master tapes so they will appear in their unedited form. BUT, one problem. The 11 minute version of "I'm Going Home" by Ten Years After will not be on the box set (for reasons unstated Ten Years After didn't clear the track for inclusion). So if you still have your 4-CD 25th Anniversary box set, KEEP IT! However, we will all be treated to Canned Heat's full length "Woodstock Boogie," all 30 minutes of it! And lots and lots of previously unreleased performances from the festival's lesser known acts like Bert Sommer, Quill, and Incredible String Band.

5.0 out of 5 stars 2009 remaster still has 1 non-Woodstock track, Jun 9 2010

This review is from: Woodstock: Music From The Original Soundtrack and More (Audio CD)
"Sea Of Madness" is performed by Crosby, Stills, Nash, And Young as indicated in the liner notes. However, this performance is not from the Woodstock Festival, but from Fillmore East, one month later. This scam was pulled on the original album release as well. The original correct recording can be heard on the 6-CD box set, Woodstock: 40 Years on: Back to Yasgur's Farm (6CD, Limited Edition).

5.0 out of 5 stars Quite fascinating and fun to listen to, Mar 3 2010
By C. Givens - Published on Amazon.com

This review is from: Woodstock: Music From The Original Soundtrack and More (Audio CD)
I have been fascinated with the 60s and 70s since I was a little kid (22 years old now) and I remember listening to this album as a middle schooler and loving the Hendrix and everything else. Listening to it now still stirs up the same fascination and love of the music of the era. Some of the songs might not have top-notch sound quality, but I think that adds to the recordings and makes them feel much more raw and thrown together, much like the festival itself. The CSN (and sometimes Y) songs on this album are great to listen to, especially if you are very familiar with the originals. Also, all of the dialog and singing about protesting, peace, and stopping the war really lets you know what and when you are listening to. I am sure some people will scoff at me for not being old enough to really know about how this all happened and the significance of it; they are probably right, but I feel like I can still appreciate (to an extent) the gravity of the situation and the beauty of the music. If you like this kind of music and want to have a taste of one of the pivotal moments in popular music history, get this CD. Worth every penny.
