It started in San Francisco, came of age at Woodstock, and changed us and the world forever. Time Life presents The Woodstock Collection. Listen to hits from the most impressionable artists of the '60s and '70s love generation including: The Mamas and the Papas, The Byrds, The Youngbloods, Jefferson Airplane, and many more. ABOUT THIS ERA:The psychedelic rock of the mid-1960's emerged from the budding interest in Eastern cultures, combined with the folk movement that was already in full swing in San Francisco, California. Bands such as Grateful Dead and Jefferson Airplane came out of the Bay Area and gained national attention for their new style of rock music. Other bands followed, such as Donovan and Big Brother and the Holding Company, singing about social issues fueled by growing opposition to the Vietnam War. As this genre of music gained popularity, the counter-culture in San Francisco, also known as "hippies," grew, culminating in the Summer of Love in 1967. Two years later, the free love movement and the music that inspired it had spread to the east coast. The Woodstock Music and Arts Festival, held in upstate New York, launched the careers of several Woodstock Collection artists, and catapulted others to a rock-star status that still lingers today.
