7. Somebody To Love?

Woodstock would have been one of the greatest experiences and memories of your whole life if you were lucky enough to attend it, but it was just as big a moment for the bands and singers who performed there. Many of them had never performed for a crowd even half this size before, and nor would they ever again, so they had to find time to sit back and drink it in. That's exactly what Jefferson Airplane are doing here. That's lead vocalist Grace Slick sat in the middle, dressed in white.

A total of 33 acts performed over the course of the three days, and we'll look at them in detail a little later on in our list. That may seem like a very low number compared to modern standards, but modern festivals tend to have multiple stages, often divided by genre and interest. Woodstock had only two, and one of these was mostly reserved for non-musical performers.
