Monterey
Friday, February 20th, 2009In crowd-gazing terms the Monterey Pop Festival just pips Jazz on a Summer’s day to the post. West coast prep meets burgeoning far-out-ness and it’s just the right mix. By Woodstock it was a little too hairy and by the Isle of Wight you’re in complete tie-dye, freak-out territory.
I’ll sit with Michelle Phillips and watch Peter Tork and Ravi Shankar any day. Pennebaker’s film, Monterey Pop, is one of my favorites.



























Sorry for the bad quality. Screengrabs from YouTube - go watch!
