If you haven't heard about the legendary Woodstock, believe me, you've missed a lot. In 1969 a music festival, organized by a bunch of 20-year-olds, took place in Bethel, New York in a cow pasture owned by a farmer Max Yasgur. The organizers had anticipated for the crowd to be around 200.000 people, but the lineup of the most iconic bands of the time such as Grateful Dead, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Jimi Hendrix, Janis Joplin, and Joe Cocker have more than doubled the number of attendees to around 500.000. The Woodstock festival ran out of food the first day, the traffic was like hell, drugs were flowing free, and still, there were no violent incidents registered. All in all, it was the most iconic and the most peaceful music festival ever.

When you're wasted and high, your fashion accessories are probably the least of your cares. These unconstrained flower children weren't trying to make a fashion statement, and yet their common aesthetic could influence generations of festival-attending youths to come.
Baron Wolman was Rolling Stone magazine's first photographer. In 1969 he was on the road photographing music festivals around the USA on assignment for Rolling Stone magazine when word started to trickle through about a major musical event happening in upstate New York. Joining the long traffic jams, Wolman made it to Woodstock, along with, ultimately, hundreds of thousands of other people. Wolman was just two years working in the musical photography.

He could capture the power of the live music of the different kinds of rock of the moment (phsicodelic rock, folk rock, blues rock, and hard rock) represented by Santana, Jimi Hendrix, Joe Cocker, Joan Baez, Credence Clearwater Revival, Janis Joplin, The Who and Neil Young, between others. But Wolman went beyond it, he mimic between the attendances and thanks to this, he got amazing photos which gained a bucolic environment full of good vibrations and people who wanted to enjoy the good music.
