I guess this is for the wimpy fans of all this stuff...can you believe six discs and not a single riff by Ten Years After...they were even better than hendrix...but hey, we have bert sommer and melanie!

I purchased this as a Christmas gift for my daughter. She's heard raving reviews about it. The seller I purchased from sent it out very quickly and it was packaged very securely. I'm sure my daughter will be very happy with it.

  Woodstock 40 years on? Not quite.

Woodstock 40 years on is an OK box set, but do not get rid of your 4 CD set just yet. You must keep both sets. There are songs on the 4 disc set that were elimanated on the 6 disc set,(why?).They also cut out Ten Years After, one of the highlites of the show. Why would you extend Sha Na Na, and cut Ten Years After? Also, too many announcements.Sound quality is great, and overall it is a good box set. But with the elimination os Sha Na Na, half of the announcements, and extention, (not elimination) of Ten Years After, the box set could have been great. Santana, Grateful Dead, Mountain, Janis Joplin, and Johnny Winter were worth the cost of the CD. Maybe in ten years, they will release a box set of the complete show and not eliminate ANYTHING!

Woodstock has always fascinated me as a pinnacle of positive feelings in the 60's, only to see everything slide out of control very soon after. I owned the albums of the concert when they came out, then the original CD sets, even some bootlegs of performances not on the official releases. This new package is the most comprehensive yet. Obviously the sound quality isn't going to rival a studio album, but immersing yourself in the whole package is a winsome experience; you can almost imagine being there then, even if you weren't ( I was only 10, and wasn't there either ). I won't go into details about individual artist's performances, form your own opinions on them. Richie Havens set is one of my favorites.

Included is an excellent booklet with interesting details about the festival, the artists, the whole area and time. I bought Michael Langs book about Woodstock and used it in conjunction with these CDs, and they seem to go together well.

I can't say there were any real shortcomings; maybe the price is a little steep, but otherwise I was thrilled to see this come out. ENJOY!
