Woodstock - Part I
We have all probably heard about the festival, Woodstock. I decided to try something a little different. I wanted to give a perspective from the audience then from the stage. This episode, Part I, gives a brief history of the event, but also gives a first-hand account of Woodstock from Lisa Brazzell. Lisa attended the festival and has an excellent memory. Caution: No offense to Lisa, but this episode does reference drugs and has some mild profanity.  Part II will feature Fido de la Parra, percussionist for Canned Heat. Canned Heat was a headliner for Woodstock.
