I was a huge fan of Dokken, and I had been following their career for years.
It’s a live album, but it’s not just a recording of a concert. It’s a collection of songs that were written and performed by the J. Geils Band, but were not released during their initial run. The band’s live performances were always a highlight of their shows, and this album captures that energy and excitement.
I ask Jim, and he says it would be the Rolling Stones’ 1969 performance at the Altamont Free Concert. The Altamont Free Concert was a pivotal moment in rock music history, and it’s a testament to the power of live music to bring people together and transcend boundaries. The concert was held on December 6, 1969, at the Altamont Speedway in California, and it was organized by the Hells Angels, a notorious motorcycle club. The concert was a free event, open to anyone who wanted to attend, and it was attended by an estimated 300,000 people. The lineup included some of the biggest names in rock music at the time, including The Rolling Stones, Santana, and The Grateful Dead. The concert was a celebration of rock music and counterculture, and it was a moment of great cultural significance. The Altamont Free Concert was also notable for its tragic events. The concert was marred by violence and chaos, including the death of a young man who was stabbed to death by a member of the Hells Angels. The event was also marked by a series of unfortunate incidents, including a stage collapse and a crowd surge. Despite the tragic events, the Altamont Free Concert remains a powerful and enduring symbol of the power of live music to bring people together and transcend boundaries.
These iconic albums have left an indelible mark on the 1970s music scene. The 1970s was a transformative period for music, marked by the emergence of new genres, styles, and subcultures.
