The Grateful Dead Delivered A Great Performance
The Grateful Dead reigned supreme for the better part of the ’60s. Their jazz, country, and rock ‘n’ roll hits earned them a spot to perform at Woodstock. They were one of the acts that were gravely affected by rain-induced equipment problems.
They took to the stage late because it got flooded, and their electrical engineer, Owsley “Bear” Stanley, spent a significant amount of time fixing their instruments. Despite it all, the band managed to deliver a 90-minute stellar performance. Their Woodstock version of Turn On Your Lovelight clocked in at nearly 38 minutes!
