Album Notes Simply put, this whopping ten-CD collection contains all five deluxe volumes in Sony Legacy's WOODSTOCK EXPERIENCE set. The artists--Sly & the Family Stone, Johnny Winter, Jefferson Airplane, Santana, and Janis Joplin--are each represented by a double-disc collection: the first album in each set is a classic studio album from the same period as the Woodstock Festival--in Sly's case, it was STAND!, in Santana's it was their debut set (which wasn't out yet), in Joplin's, I GOT DEM OL' KOZMIC BLUES AGAIN, MAMA!, in the Airplane's it was VOLUNTEERS (also not out yet), and Johnny Winter's representing his debut as well as a preview of his forthcoming SECOND WINTER LP. Each of these classic albums is the standard remastered edition but packaged in an LP sleeve. The second disc in most cases--the Airplane, whose set was much longer than anyone else represented here is the exception--is the complete, unexpurgated Woodstock performance wonderfully remastered and mixed by Eddie Kramer. For classic rock fans this is the mother lode; however, given the price tag, most folks will more than likely pick and choose the volumes by their favorite artists and let the box slide for now.
